My 5.3L into a Jeep Wrangler

[Chuck21387]

So here's what i started with,

1993 Jeep Wrangler (YJ)
2.5L 4 cylinder (125ish HP)
5 Speed Manual
NP231 Transfercase (Aluminum chain drive)
Dana 35 rear axle (Stock) w/ factory 4.10 gears
Dana 30 front axle (Stock) w/ factory 4.10 gears

What i have to install
2000 GMC 5.3L Vortec V8
700r4 Auto transmission
NP208 transfercase (aluminum w/chain drive) i do have a Dana20 tcase (gear drive cast iron case) that will go in at a later date.
Corporate 14bolt rear axle shaved 1.5" for max rock clearance (cut 2" off the bottom of pig, weld on 1/2" plate, and turn ring gear down 1/4")
Dana 60 front axle both with factory 4.56 gears

Should be a fun toy in the end!!

Sweetness...you gotta own a couple BFH&#39;s...you never know when you&#39;ll need one :-)

So I only threw up a couple pics, i didn&#39;t mention my current state.

I&#39;ve got the new drivetrain bolted together, and the motor mounts fabbed. The engine is bolted in and sitting all by itself&#33;&#33; The transmission mount howevere is still sitting on a jack, but that shouldn&#39;t take long once i modify the stock skid plate (belly pan). I ordered my fuel pump last night &#33; &#33; &#33; And should be in business sooner than i thought&#33;&#33; Thanks to this board and Ron&#33;

I&#39;ll post more pics when i get home after work (Central time)

That&#39;s the goal....hoping to someday be able to roast all 4 tires on pavement....i think that&#39;d be sweet...we&#39;ll see what happens, i&#39;ve seen a guy do it with a 383 Stroker and 40" tall tires, i&#39;ll only be running 35" tall tires...

After


Fuse Block



Misc Wiring Schematics Used (References for 2000 Silverado)




I&#39;ve got access to more if needed. You&#39;ll need to have the fuse block pinouts. I&#39;ll have to email those (don&#39;t have electronic copies on file).
