my jeep has the 3500?? transmission i think. if i need an entire donor truck would a 97 gmc jimmy with a 4.3 vortec work?? theres one sitting in my garage right now. why would my current rad not work? its brand new and when i ordered it the same part number came for the 2.5 or 4L.
i looked at carbed 350 swap, the jeep place here can do it for 1000 cnd plus motor. but then im running a honkin big 5.7 and im not sure i want all that? the 97 jimmy with an auto in my garage gets around 450k to the tank (60L) and it weighs twice as much as my tj and has an auto trany. i think i would get unreal fuel mileage and more than enough power to spin my 31's. i dont really plan on upping my lift or tire size ever. i want to get an old yj and put 2 ton diffs and 44's on it down the road once i have my own shop. right now i just want a good reliable dd that doesnt chug up a slight rise.
