I am looking for a donor car or motor for my jeep... Please let me know if you have one or know someone who does. I have a 5cyl T/motor in my wrangler that has a knock coming from the motor. I don't want to put more time or money into this conversion with a motor that is going to give me trouble. If I have to take a whole car I will, but just need the motor.
I believe the motor is pre 80's and if the other year 5cyl T/motors will bolt up I'd be interested in one of those.
Please help me finish this project...
Thanks Jon from San Diego

hi how hard was the swap
what adapter do you use

I bought the jeep with the motor installed already. The adapter looks like it was done with a part of a bell housing from a Mercedes and then they welded a thick piece of aluminum to that (Looks like it was done well). The oil pan is located over the front diff so I am going to have to lift the jeep for clearance and put on some taller bump stops. I am looking for a motor that runs good so I can finish the project. I have the lift and the tires waiting, just want to make sure everything works good before I put that stuff on.
