My current motor in my 98 XJ has what I assume is 240k on the original engine. I'm losing some coolant through what I think is a head gasket or cracked head, plus it's got a significant exhaust leak and leaks a little oil. I don't want to go chasing issues on a high mile motor so I thought I'd try to find a replacement under 180k. I'm only interested in long blocks, as I want the swap to cheap and easy.
ZJ motors seem easier to find locally. Didn't the 4.0s get changes to the castings in 96 to help with NVH? What year motors and from what vehicles would be a direct swap?
