scottv 02-04-2002, 11:28 AM Does anyone see a problem with Swapping a 4.0L into a CJ5? Mo 02-04-2002, 11:37 AM As long as it's an AMC era CJ5, should not be an issue. Earlier ones have a shorter nose, so it might be a tight fit. WheelingPiazza 02-04-2002, 01:08 PM The real question is why? all I can see is smog issues, but beyond that if its a amc era on up then it should fit.. scottv 02-04-2002, 01:17 PM Becouse I am getting the CJ for Free but am told the motor is Junk...........I have a 92 HO complete with wireing and ECU sitting here..................See my point WheelingPiazza 02-04-2002, 01:50 PM Well that would make me put the 4.0 in it for sure :D What year 5? scottv 02-04-2002, 01:52 PM Dont know yet. Freind works at wrecking yard and is towing it here. He didnt know what year for sure it is WheelingPiazza 02-04-2002, 05:00 PM Well if its a long nose (amc) it wil lfit.. If its a short nose it might get realyl tight.
