Consider what you want to do to it as far as lift and bigger tires ect... If your going to "mod" it out you might want to concider a 6 cylinder.The jeep looks great and new motor with the paper work to back it up, price is very reasonable here in New Hampshire.

I guess its all relavent to how much you have to spend, on the 6 cylinder, from what I;ve read you get the ax-15 tranny, which can handle the v-8.The trannys in the 4 cylinders cannot.Its your decision, I was just trying to share some info I have learned from reading here.I wish I knew about this forum before I bought mine, don't get me wrong, I love my jeep and my 4 banger, But I would be further ahead with my wish list of mods if I would have bought a 6 cyl. No matter what you do if you buy a jeep you love it. Good luck with your hunt!!!

It's nice enough although a four. And swapping can get spendy. Novac's the place to get adapters and stuff. The trans in this Jeep will grenade behind a V8 or V6, its an AX5, a notoriously weak unit. Your spending Good money after Bad here. I think you know that, and were not going to advise you its a good deal, knowing it won't satisfy you in the long run. There's a horde of YJ's out there with HO 4.0's to be had. HO 4.0's make 190 hp, and a cold air K&N 3-4 more hp.
