ok guys i need some help on deciding how I'm going to proceed with my swap. i have a 87 Jeep Comanche, I6 2wd 5spd stick. i also have a 96 jeep cherokee I6 4x4 Auto trans. I'm wanting to take these 2 and make my Comanche 4x4 with the auto trans, but I'm not quite sure how to do it. I'm doing this because my cherokee rusting out and has a salvage title and on its last leg, the comanche has perfect body and clean title

Option one: lots of work, i swap the whole engine transmission t case and ALL the electronics ( harnesses computers dash ect) out of my cherokee into the comanche. this is allot of work and I'm a lil uncomfortable doing that because ive never done it and fear that ill screw it up. the other reason I'm leaning away from this is there is sighs of rigging in the electrical of the charokee before i owned it and i don't want to put bad electrical in,

Option two: i take just the Auto trans and tcase and mate them to the engine in the comanche. if i do this i know i need a flex plate that matches my torque converter. But then i have to find some way to wire the auto trans up which i don't know how to do.

any tips info or right ups on wiring a auto trans into a Manuel comanche or cherokee?
all the help would be much appreciated!!

You will need to go the route that is the least desirable to you for everything to work properly I'm afraid. If you have some bad wiring on the 96 find another harness from a Junker and use it just take your time and do it right. The computer is needed to make it all work in that nice PU.

I'm just wondering why you are not keeping the 5 speed in the Comanche? Then you have less wiring to do as far as the trans goes.
