thanks for the link beatdown z so its just a flexplate? the bellhousing bolts right up?
Flat flexplate AND spacer. Yes, the bellhousing bolts right up. Just make sure you use the correct Metric bolts, so you don't cross-thread your block.
i have seen some pictures of the spacer. the flexplate that came with my LQ4 has a spacer on it that looks similar, it had a 4L80E behind it originally
LOL, I didn't even think about asking if you had a flexplate on your LQ4 already. All you need to do then, is make sure the converter holes match up to the flexplate holes. If they don't match up perfect, just elongate them.
Your LQ4 is obviously an '01 or newer, right?
yes 02
That jeep is gonna be a beast! Post a build thread when you get working on it.
