Is that a stock flywheel? seems like a weak design and I'll be looking to replace/modify mine...
-
how do you get the two top bell housing bolts??? They are inverted torx E12 right at the firewall. Everything was going smoothly, that's all I have left is two bolts and it's out. Thanks.

@mainejunker body of the jeep cherokee is ruin? idk what you drive it before?
-
@MechForce i think it s a reliable motor mine has 200.000km and apart some knocking piston noise..it s still in good shape ..

Great engines, run forever, amazing low end torque...more than the whimpy v6's they put in wranglers today...
just cant beat a old fashion 4.0.

My dad had racked up 360,000 miles on his XJ before selling it. What do you guys and girls think about the 4.0L I6? I've only heard positive praise about these things!
-
The worst thing they ever did was drop the 4.0, these things would last forever.

whenever i pull engine i always take the whole front clip apart. i find it much more easy cause i dont have to move the engine all around to get it to come out.

Did you have to take off the intake manifold? to get some of the bolts on the side of the bell housing?

you know it would of bin easier swingin the motor out the front instead of straight up. All u had to do is unbolt the rad and the whole front clip comes off.

Seems like removing the front clip would just make extra work because it wasn't really in the way anyhow. No point in removing it as far as what I experienced.

Yes, engine ran fine. Rest of the jeep was in really bad shape. Was having it hauled off for junk so I pulled the engine first.
