Torque Converter

[JeepCherokeeGuy99]

I cant seem to find a torque converter for my xj anywhere. I tried kragen, Car Quest, Auto Zone, all the online stores i know, every junkyard in my county, ebay. I've run out of options. Does anyone have any other suggestion? its for a 97 cherokee sport 4x4 4.0 auto. I think it'll work from 89 to 01, the AW4. Thanks!

Did some online searching without success.

How about checking with some rebuilders?

i tried a shop on black road. cant rememver which one. I tried craigslist. Hey tiger got a paypal account? I can send you money for shipping. PM me if you want.

whats wrong with the torque converter that you already have?

theres gotta be a better option than shipping a torque conver across the country. those suckers are heavy.

checked out car-part.com. it says:
South Bay Auto Wreckers, Inc. USA-CA(Chula-Vista) Request_Quote 1-877-722-3138
they have one for $125. try and talk them down.

I got mine at TCS in Havasu. They do alot of off road race stuff, but will build stock stuff too. Good guys to deal with.

no pick-a-parts around you? the one here charges 19.99 for a torque converter and has lots of XJs.

K i just got ahold of the guy selling the 98 tranny and t-case. I asked him if he would sell the tranny seperate and he said no he wants to sell it all together. So im debating on whether or not to buy it for 400 and just sell my t-case, or keep looking. I got 160,000 miles on my jeep now and this tranny only has 90,000 miles on it. It seems to be worth it

 

[Johnnie Walker]

400 for everything is a good deal if it is in good condition.

a salvage yard is the best bet
a dealer can order you new TC for a coffee-spitting $800!
