ZJ wonder 5.0
M4wdFab:
confirmed seized motor tonight.
mechanicals look not to bad, front end looks tight
new tires
needs exhaust clamp at header, and tail pipe connected back to muffler.
one unibody spot soft, but not terrible.
have a 99 xj motor sitting on the shop floor i got for 300$ but there are many differances that will require most of the accessories to be swapped, the distributor and a few other sensors to be swapped.
waiting on chip to pick up his phone and respond to me. it was Andies sons jeep that died and was towed. still havent seen the title, dont want to start on it till i do
GBR928:
Wouldn't this be wonder 4.0 as the black 5.9 ZJ was not a Wonder?
GBR928:
Oh I get it, wonder 3.0 was white one.
M4wdFab:
might bail on this thing
its pretty rotten, not sure its worth the bs and labor and parts to have maybe a 1200 ZJ in the end to drive
could more than 4x my investment after 3 hrs labor tonight.
drive shafts, trans/case pulled from underneath. has good front axle shafts, and almost brand new street tires.
Cant get the motor to turn its so seized to get the TC off and get at the flywheel/tone ring i need to swap to the other 4.0 along with a bunch of sensors and the distributor probably.
mr.mindless:
impressive level of seized, wow.
