Just wanted to say thanks to everyone.
One of the rods was loose. Hoped over to autozone picked up a new rod bearing, unfortunately I had to buy 6 not just 1. New bearing and some tightening down, no more knock.
I know I should have inspected/polished crank yada yada yada to ensure the bearing doesn't fail. But I've decided to get that $400 engine I mentioned before and start rebuilding it. Maybe even turning it into a stroker then dropping that in.
Jeep is ready to go and actualy went for a 2hr drive earlier just for kicks.
Thanks again to everyone that helped. [=
