I have a 94 wrangler and the 2.5L seems about ready to give up its ghost....so if anyone can provide me with a good place to get a rebuilt long or short block in CA it would help out a lot..
I dont have time for a lot of down time so I cant rebuild it myself...
Thanks
Andrew

I guess a bunch of JU guys have purchased Dana 44's from them.

For that kind of change we got a '99 5.9L w/ 11,000 miles, all the wiring, computer, radiator, hoses.

Fawk that seems high to me:eek:

I agree with Bigdude, that sounds pretty fawking high:eek:

Hell quadratec has crate 2.5L's for less than that, they are probably on back order though:flipoff2:

Hey tat, how many miles does your motor have on it?

I have a 2.5L motor/5-speed/231 complete with 40,000miles from a 98 if your interested. It should bolt right up.

hey Tbone...
I think in the tjs they changed the 2.5L configuration(my friends tj 2.5L looks a lot different than my yjs) so Im not sure if the computer and accesories would all work right. But if Im mistaken let me know, and give me a price for the 2.5/tcase/tranny and shipping rates if you can, Im near fresno,Ca....
Thanks...
