I can't afford to do so....that's why I have an extra jeep. so I guess it works out.

anyway, instead of going right to painting and headlight harness. I went to go look at Jmitchels new ride. looks nice. everything works, and runs good. good shape. interior is clean. but its a D35, but I doubt he'll do anything that will require anything more.

 

Thanks for all the CL ads guys! Im glad to part of a group that cares.

 

Ok this guy is confusing me...He is saying that the 1998 will not fit bc the 1998 is a distributor motor and the 1999 is a coil pack...

Then he tells me that he doesn't think the 2000 motor he has will fit???

Ideas? He wants 500 for motor, A/C, alternator, etc. 112K

 

He has 1....$100...your call.

 

Guy said he can do the TC for $150. The tranny is still attached so you'll have to give him a heads up if you want it. Send me a PM if you want his info.

 

That first one is my buddy. Let me know if you want me to talk to him also. We live in the same neighborhood.

 

He's an idiot. It will work. You convert the 98 to coil pack...it is not that hard.

BUT....does he have a 98? Or 2000?

 

up through 1999 used a distributor
1998/1999 XJ 4.0L are identical

either way get it - you likely just need the bottom end anyways.

 

He has a 98 and a 2000...don't know miles/etc details on 98, but which would be easier/better to do?

 

Thats a lot pudgy! Will let you know once i discuss things with my dad.

I thought it was funny when he asked where my drive shaft was. My response "idk, somewhere on 695 in pieces." Lmao. Im pretty sure it shattered. I didnt see it behind me and i saw a bunch of chunks explode. Tow truck driver didnt see it either.

 

yours has no coil packs correct?

if not - 1998
if so - 2000

And make sure he's talking about a Cherokee and not a GRAND cherokee

 

damn. Bad day for jeeps in MD - Thomas Ebert posted on FB that he just blew his engine
