WTB 87-99 RENIX or HO 4.0 good running long block

[xjtrailrider]

My son's 89 MJ is blowing by 2 quarts a week so its expiration date is coming soon. He is a broke a$$ college kid and needs a running 4.0 asap.

Cheap or free! I might even have something to swap if you can think of anything.

I would prefer to hear it run and I can pull it out if still in the Jeep as long as I have a solid surface to roll the engine hoist on.

PM me here

Dude, did ya find an engine yet ???

I have a complete 88 cherokee pioneer that runs pretty good, and a spare engine & trans from a lower mileage 88 (because the ones IN the jeep have 350k+ on them) I may sell as a package for a decent price if you are interested.

The jeep has a slight stumble @ idle due to having the wrong year IAT sensor in it (could not find a renix one anywhere), the rear main leaks, the exhaust manifold leaks pretty bad.

It has a 1 3/4" rustys lift on it, and a lockright locker in the rear. Can be had with black rockcrawler rims & worn out 31" ATs or the light silver icons with almost worn out street treads.

Interior isn't pretty, but not completely trashed either, & everything works (or at least it did when I stopped driving it on a regular basis.

It has been repainted, and the clear is peeling off in some areas.

Yep! Found one in NC with only 134k on it!
