HemiDak-Quads 97,Jeep Hemi Swap....
To all who followed my last Dodge Dakota Quad Cab Hemi Build , Helped with info and gave support . Thank you . Unfortunately The Truck is totaled so I am in need of another vehicle. Since the Insurance companies have no interest in paying me for the womans mistake , I'm on my own ..
I found this Jeep Wrangler Laredo and purchased it to put this Hemi in. I hope it can be done without too much change in things like gauges , and interior wiring..Sinse the Jeep don't have fuel injection, nothing is going to work. It would be so much easier to put a Chevy 350 in it out of a Z-71. But it wouldn't be as interesting or as satisfying in the end. I would like to be able to take this jeep to car shows or the mud hole , A Chevy motor in a Jeep would impress very few people, where a Hemi in an old YJ would have the OHHH , COOL factor...SO here goes , The first step will be setting up a place to do the swap and unload the Jeep from the trailer...I'm exited...
