Swappage deals
I found 2 cherokees for sale for 500 each. One is a 4.0L with a bad auto trans. The other is a 4.0L with a 5 spd and a bad engine. If I were to buy both to make one. Which direction would be the easiest? Swap the good engine into the 5 spd or the 5 spd to the good engine?
Keep in mind I don't have a lot of help or shop equipment right now. I haven't found any write ups either way yet.

Who am I foolin! I'll probably run 35s. My budget is real limited though. Craigslist has a lot of stuff though.
If I can get to around 20 mpg I'll be alright. My old suburban with 35's and 4.56's only got 10 mpg. That will kill my pocket book.
