Transmission swap?
 
Hello, I need to replace the transmission in my 1997 6cyl 4.0 4x4 Grand Cherokee. I am wondering if somebody can tell me what years I can swap the trani out for. I'm looking at a trani out of a 95 tommorrow and would like to know if they will swap out together. Any help and info is appreciated!!

Are the factory connectors compatible? Plug and play or does anything need to be swapped?

AFAIK, It's plug and play.

If you can pull the trans yourself,I would have your trans rebuilt.Most trans shops are cheaper if you drop off and trans and pick it back up.

Yes, one guy quoted me $250 for a bench rebuild.

andrewmp6 12-16-2015 03:19 AM
The guy i have used 300 to 600 just depends the trans.

dave1123 12-16-2015 01:42 PM
Yeah, my guy said he could do it that cheap because he had a lot of extra parts on the shelf. I didn't think THAT was a good idea.
