This guy does a bunch of work for my shop. I trust him.

Thats why I planned rebuilding this myself. I've rebuilt many engines just never a Jeep 4.0. Thats why I was inquiring on what brands seemed to work best with the 4.0. Some brands work good together. I was planning on getting a reinforced cyl head for it. I'm going to send the block out with...

Ok thanks, I see it now. I sent them an email since they dont have a listing for a 2000. Hopefully i'll hear back Monday.

Thanks, I might get ahold of them. Thats crazy cheap from what i've seen. However I dont see the jeep motors on the price list unless i'm just blind. Thanks for posting the prices and the link.

Thats pretty cheap compared to everyone else. So my question is, whats there reputation?

Hi everyone, i'm going to rebuild a 4.0 to put in my '00 Cherokee. I've rebuilt several small block Chevy's but i've never done a Jeep motor. What do you guys reccomend for rebuild kits. I've heard some guys talk about coated pistons to help cut down on piston slap? Any ideas on that? Any info...

I'm looking to build one and figure i'd get one without the 0331 head.

I want to switch to the distributer also.

Hi everyone. I'm looking to build a 4.0 to put into my '00. Its developed a pretty good knocking sound. What would it take to put a '99 or older 4.0 into a '00. In terms of dealing with the distributer vs the coil on plug setup. Do I have to do anything with the PCM? Jon

What all has to be done PCM wise and all that? Do I need to switch that all over to the older one?

I'm looking to buy a 4.0 out of a 2000-01 cherokee. My plan is to overhaul it and put it in my '00. Let me know if you have one sitting around that you could part with.

Whats your zip? I wish I would have known I just rolled through IN.

Mine works good, I just dont use it due to some custom stickers on the back window.

I would rebuild it to drive down the street. I've built a ton of motors, just never a jeep. If its gonna cost me anywhere near $1500 i'll get a brand new mopar through work and put a motor in with warrenty.

Hi everyone. Can you give me a ballpark on how much it cost those of you who have rebuilt a 4.0? It would be a '00 in my case. I'm talking from the rebuild kit, machining, and other misc stuff. Also if you used any special parts such as diff pistons etc. Also what brand kits and parts did you...
