    91 2 door 5.3 V8 swap

    91 2 door 5.3 V8 swap

    Hello, long time lurker first time builder. I have pulled the trigger on swapping my 4.0 AW4 for a 5.3/4L60E combo in my 91 2 door 4x4 Jeep. I’ve already got started with pulling the drive train and have the 5.3 and 4L60E. I’m currently at work and will load some pictures during my next update...
