Nelson Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Hello I am looking for some help on and engine swap for my MJ. I have a 88 comanche with a 2.5l. I got a really good deal on a 4.0 motor + trans, transfer case, and computer from a 2000 XJ. my plan is to find a donor 2000 XJ for the dash, front clip and wiring. Basically make it a 2000 XJ with a comanch body. I want to know if my plan would work or not? any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omega_rugal Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 2000? make sure you don't get the 0331 head, or at least get one that already has changed it for a TUPY one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dzimm Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 Yeah do searches for 97+ swaps. There are plenty of threads here (mine in my sig) and most of us who have done it will be willing to answer specific questions for you. It's a pretty straightforward swap with little fabrication. As stated, check that head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
