you should probably start a new thread.

the answer is no, it is not plug and play and go. yes, it will physically bolt in, but you have to swap the ENTIRE wiring harness to make the 97 motor run, the ENTIRE interior, all accessories, even the gas tank. it's a complete swap.

I'm in the middle of doing a 95 H.O. 4.0 conversion in my 87 4.0 jeep comanche...there is nothing left from the comanche's running system.

i want to keep the H.0 motor in the 97. just wanted to know if the front axle, trans, tranfer case, drive shafts, ect.. from the 89 4wd would bolt up to the 97 2wd and work. From what i have read if i put the auto trans from the 89 in the 97 the computer in the 97 would not operate it because the computer in the 97 currently is for the 5 spd. Any info is great. thanks
