Which is easier? An engine swap or a drivetrain swap?
So I bought a 4wd 1999 Cherokee with a bad head gasket. I already got a good 1999 2wd Cherokee, and I need a good engine & a 4wd drivetrain. I’m working with basic tools, and all i have are some jack stands. Should I swap my good 2wd engine? Or should I swap the good 4wd drivetrain? (Including Transmission, Transfer Case, Driveshafts, Front Axle, etc). I will add the 4wd Jeep have a nicer lift, but that’s easy to swap out if I’m already changing out the front axle, right
? Thanks for reading, any advice is helpful.
