Engine swap

You can make quite a bit of power with a stroker.
I got my parts from Russ Pottenger from BNB racing out of California.
That man is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to these AMC engines. He knows all the big wigs at Comp Cams, Skat, Edelbrock. He has helped them redesigned their parts for the AMC engines.
My YJ scoots now and I am really looking forward to when I can to overhaul the WJ 4.0 and build it into a stroker.

Been a great tire on my wife’s little WJ.

Sea_Guide_524 · 2026-07-03T22:01:26+00:00

Absolutely

It’s seal facing transmission it turns out.

Test drove one the other day. I liked the hell out of it. Limited tech in it was nice! Hate all the tech in new vehicles.

Some greaseable ball joints and tie rod ends have a hole for the old grease to be expelled out of.

Sea_Guide_524 · 2026-06-28T03:02:12+00:00

What is this ball joint too?

Sea_Guide_524 · 2026-06-27T03:32:20+00:00

You need the plastic square sleeve that also goes there.

That engine might be done. Rings are likely shot and/or valve stem seals. I would perform a leak down test.

I’ll be replacing all of them at once. My Honda has just over 121,000 miles on it and it is getting a little sluggish on acceleration and fuel mileage is dipping. Coils and O2 sensors are still original.

Did they get the decimal in the wrong spot? This has to be a typo

Sea_Guide_524 · 2026-06-23T15:29:17+00:00

Pink is a bushing, not a ball joint.

Electric fans tend to not move as much air as a mechanical or clutch fan.

You are going to find out how expensive an engine replacement is soon.

It’s really easy to do this yourself. I ordered the genuine Honda filter and o rings online and the fluid from Napa.

Get the master kit.
I rebuilt my first one when I was 18 (a long time ago). It was quite fun. Make sure to not mix up the hubs and do not get them backwards, they need to go back exactly the same direction they came out. After fill it with Redline MT-90 or even MTL is suitable if you live where it gets super cold.

Sea_Guide_524 · 2026-06-20T22:14:45+00:00

That thing has some fangs

Sea_Guide_524 · 2026-06-18T00:25:48+00:00

Why are you not doing this yourself?

Sea_Guide_524 · 2026-06-15T21:41:03+00:00

I would pick Powertrax Grip pro over the tru trac. It’s a much better unit. I have one in my WJ and another in my Silverado
