how is the rust?
I havent done a 4.0 swap so i dont know the difficulty behind it. you will need a new trans for the 4.0 and it needs to be a 4x4 trans. i bought my 4x4 automatic AW4 for $75 off craigslist when i did my 4x4 swap.

Commanches are getting more and more rare to find with a good body. I would grab it up and do the swap if you have money for it. Prolly looking at about another 2 grand thougj after all is said and done.
