Never ending saga! Putting a 2003 or 2004 Wrangler 4.0 into my 1989 Wrangler which was a 4.2 The motor mounts (Rubber) on the old set up are all torn up etc.... Look up on auto parts website & they list a P/N 2572 for the 4.2 setup @ $19.88 each and a P/N 2883 for the 4.0 engine @ $29.88...

We're installing a 2003 or 2004 4.0 engine with an automatic & its associated transfer case into my 1989 Wrangler that was a 4.2 with a 5 speed. Before I go any further, I have to thank the folks here at this website for the huge help they're being to make this happen - I sing your praises to...

I bought a drivetrain: 4.0 Engine, Automatic Transmission & Transfer Case out of a 2003 or 2004 Wrangler. It came Complete just as it was pulled out A/C, Alternator everything.......The computer & fuse box in tact & everything all connected on the motor............... My problem is where the...

On other forums (Chevy etc.) they won't allow you to post something for sale etc.... You have to use a special For Sale or For Free section - which makes sense! I posted a question about seats & got PM'd with salesmen...... I'm replaceing my entire drivetrain & want to offer it for a Fair price...

I built truck bodies for a living for 35 years.............. 1st rule: RUST is NOT a primer for paint! 2nd: You may not have access to a welder or be able to weld so you can cut out the bad spots and clean any oil / grease from the original ie: floor - cut your patch panel a little bit smaller...

Should have said "Thanks Dave" for your info! Stupid Fingers not working to good today or is it this damn computer making mistakes again...............

Thank Dave

Here I am putting all this time & $$$ into my '89 to get her to run like a new machine & I think to my self... this front seat stinks! I look around and guys are selling newer nicer seats out of late model Wranglers etc........ is it a big deal to mount these into an older Jeep like my '89? I...

Thanks Capytain, The engine came with EVERYTHING that would be under the hood but cut where it came thru the firewall. I just bought a new dash and lighting harness which I believe to contain everything on the other side of the firewall. This guy is also supplying me with a drawing that should...

Hay thanks, If your right & the big tire situation is very logical by doing nothing would save me a 600 mile round trip to buy the 3.07 rears plus the purchase price, not to mention the labor to switch them over. Gas money for my son's Dodge Hemi to go get them was scary plus the...

Anybody done this kind of swap that can Help............... Jim

I've got an '89 Wrangler that's a 4.2 & 5 speed right now..... I just bought a 2004 Wrangler 4.0 with the automatic trans & transfer case which I'm going to put in as soon as the weather warms up a bit. Right now my gas mileage stinks & I know the 33x12 Thornbirds don't help. I was wondering if...

I'm located in "The Poconos" (Northeastern Pennsylvania). There's a guy on Ebay selling the dash & lighting harness for a 2006 Wrangler ($100) he says that it has the section with the grommet going thru the firewall & this will couple with what I have etc.............. I'm going to have this...

Hay guys - I love my ole '89 but her 4.2's tired etc....... I had a chance to pick up a complete 2003 or 2004 drivetrain out of a Wrangler that rolled. They cut the harness at the firewall - everything else under the hood is there. I haven't got to the mateing of the old harness with the new but...

I bought a 2004 Wrangler 4.0 engine, auto trans & transfer case complete with harness, computer etc. It was cut where it came thru the firewall. I'm putting it into my 1989 Wrangler that now is a 4.2 five speed etc. Where can I get the wiring schematic on the 2004 & my 1989 so I can try to...

Take a quick check around for a vacuum leak someplace maybe............ Can't hurt & it's free! Jim (I'm a Scot you know)

Thanks guys - like they say a zillion chinamen can't be wrong! I guess I'll use the 2004 auto trans & transfer case & hope my rear end gearing works out as well. Jim

Bear with me guys, I'm full of a lot of things but at the moment it's questions. Bought this 2004 4.0 engine, trans & transfer case. My Wrangler is a 1989 with a 4.2 and a 5 speed. I'm not sure which trans it is but I recall Peugo being mentioned when I was buying a clutch for it a yrar ago or...

Catfish - You are my new main man (at least for today anyway). Thanks for the info, it gives me something to checkout anyway. I still have to figure out how to send a PM so bear with me........OK Jim

Thanks Terry - it's always nice to make a new buddy! I closed the deal & purchased this 2004 engine trans & tcase along with the harness & computer + the drive shafts & more. I spoke with a mechanic buddy of mine & it looks like I'll have to come up with a cooler in front of the radiator for the...
