what years 4.0 engine fit my 1992 jeep cherokee?

Answer 1

All of them should fit as long as that's the same engine.

Answer 2

Anything 91-01 should fit. 4.0L engines prior to 91 have different throttle bodies and the exhaust manifolds exit in a different direction.

I put a 91 motor in an 88 Cherokee but I had to used my old exhaust/intake manifold due to the exit direction of the exhaust and the position of the throttle cable. Also, in order to use my old power steering, alternator, and AC compressor, (the salvage motor came stripped of accessories) I had to use the original brackets from the old motor. They will bolt right on to the block.

Just some food for thought on things you should look for and questions you should ask when looking for a motor. Using your old manifolds and buying a new gasket out-weigh the cost involved in redirecting your throttle cable and purchasing a new exhaust down pipe.

Any 4.0L I6 will mount right up to your existing engine mounts. If you have a 4 cyl motor in there now, you will have to either buy a new tranny since the trannies in the 4cyl models won't handle the torque of the big motor too well, or you can buy an adapter if that doesn't concern you. http://advanceadapters.com

Answer 3

Any Jeep 4.0L should fit. From 1984-2001. Be sure that the parts you have or purchasing are compatible. Sometimes Jeep used different manufacturers to produce the same part at different times. Just do your homework and you should be OK. Good luck!

Answer 4

All 4.0L engines are 4.0L engines, however, there are differences. In 1992, they were high output 4.0L engines. These are subtle differences, but enough to make them noninterchangeable (at least according to Jeep). '92-'95 engines are the same.

Answer 5

The 4.0L engine is on since 1987, after the 4.2L was updated.
Until '91 it wasn't HO.
So I would suggest any 4.0L '92 or newer.
