The one I was pulling at the junkyard got crushed. I had a few more things to do but had to go to work so I went back the next morning.. No more jeep.

A friend of mine is letting me borrow her wrangler so I said hell with it and started pulling. I'll probably pick up another motor this week

I just replaced mine with a 4 seasons. Same size as oem except had to rework the high and low pressure lines. Oem line wouldnt fit and the 4 season lines where way wrong. So i did what i could and had a line shop modify the 4 seasons lines to oem spec.
