247. It was not changed to beef it up. It was only changed because my 4wd was out.

I'm not too sure. I'm way outta my league on this project. LOL. I work in a government office sitting behind a desk. It's just a good thing I have connections with great friends and family showing, telling and helping me do all this because I know what a gas pedal and a steering wheel is. LOL.

I had to research to find out why my vent wouldn't blow any air and found that the fan motor on these WJs literally melt. A Chrysler Flaw. You can buy a new one but we are gonna rebuild this on. Thinking about doing a thread of it own for this.
