I thought that was in all the XJs and assumed it carried into the MJ. You are right about the 207 dana transfer case, jury is still out on the transmission, but I think it is bad, won't shift right.

Eagle Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Be sure to save the rear flares. The fronts are the same as for a Cherokee, and those are available new on the aftermarket. The MJ rear flares are unique, and are NOT available. Save the backing plates, too -- the studs will almost certainly break off, but there are ways to repair that. In fact, if they're solid and if you have the body work skills, it would be great if you could save the complete rear quarters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Submariner Posted February 25, 2019 Author Share Posted February 25, 2019 How about $50 for both plus shipping. that will pay for the trip to town and lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 save everything associated with the fuel system. from pump assembly to fuel injector, it's all becoming harder to find for the 2.5L folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Submariner Posted February 25, 2019 Author Share Posted February 25, 2019 I got a clean 24 gallon tank and skid plate for it. and straps I was going to put under my shortbed but it is to big to fit. I wonder how it would work where the spare tire is? Hmmmmm. dual tanks? LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a single barrel carb. the power steering pump and steering box is gone now and the alternator. I got a guy wanting to look at it for the block. can they put a FI head on a carborted block?

eaglescout526 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 They can if they want. They could run the route of using Chryslers H.O. system for the 2.5Litre or use the old Renix injection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks to me like the original throttle body injection. There were no carbureted 4-cylinder Comanches. The Comanche came out in 1986, and Jeep only used carburetors on the 2.5L engine in 1984 and 1985. Look again -- it it really is a carburetor, then the engine has been swapped in.

carnuck Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 The head was the same for carb and TBI. I did the swap long ago when a carburetor died and just swapped intakes for the TBI one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
