I have been getting mixed direction on motors. I blew mine and have the oppurtunity to purchase a 96 yj motor. I have been told that it will not work. Could someone please help?

Its not a 4.0 but a 4.2 I would guess. Find a 4.0 instead.

I don't think 96 had 4.2, pretty sure they where HO 4.0

Theres no such thing as a 96 YJ. No Wranglers in 96. But it would be a 4.0 if there were.

My appoligies it is out of a 97 and it is a tj. I have been told that the 4.0 out of 96 and newer is different than 95 and older 4.0. He has complete motor without the harness. Will this motor work in my 94 with my harness and computer ?

THe motor itself will work, you just need to run your manifolds and accesories. If you are in NorCal, I have a 92 XJ motor complete w/ 100k on it. It ran perfect and passed smog w/ 0's accross the board.

It will work. My buddy just the same thing only he has a 96 zj and put in an older 4.0. Check your flywheel and or flex plate the bolt holes vary

I have been told the accessories off if mine will not bolt up. The blocks are different.
