Are the front axle hubs permanently engaged or is there a vacuum system or something to engage them like on an F250?

The hardest part is separating the gasket from the pan, as it has to be done with everything in the way. All I can say is don't give up. I just finished (except for reinstalling the flywheel cover) in about 5 hours start to finish, by myself, on a dirt driveway with cardboard to move around on.

Update: Doing another 4x4 right now. No need to remove front drive shaft.

2wd is a cake walk. No front diff in the way. I'm about to do it again on the rusty 4x4 manual I just picked up. I'm thinking this time it'll take maybe 4 hours plus however much bullshitting I do along the way.

This is what I used to raise the engine. There's a lip in front of the oil pan that the 2x4 pushes up on

It's definitely DIY, but not the easiest job. There are a few different ways to go about it. I just did mine recently using the following procedure: 1. Drive onto oil change ramps. 2. Remove Front drive shaft. 3. Remove flywheel cover from transmission. 4. Loosen two engine mount bolts, do not...

I just picked up a beater 2004 Manual 3.7 4x4. Its really too far gone to get back on the road so I want to swap either my 2002 Sport or 2004 Limited to 5 speed manual. I know the common response is "sell and buy a manual", so no need to post that. The hard parts should be pretty straight...

I have a 2004 with 4 plug PCM. Can I swap this engine into a 2011 without changing internals? What all would I need to swap from the 2011 engine?

I have a 2004 3.7 with 4 plug PCM (NGC). Can I swap this into a 2011 without changing internals?

Looking at ebay/amazon 2.5" spacer lifts for a beater KJ. Found these on ebay (link below). Any better options in the price range...

I've seen a couple different conversion threads but none really mention this specific swap. I have a 2002 3.7 auto 4x4 and found a really clean 2003 3.7 manual 2wd for cheap. How feasible would it be to swap the 4x4 parts to the 2wd and keep the manual. My main concern is if the T-case would...

So I reattached the SKIM and it cranked over. I came across a video that mentioned after SKIM reset, you have to clear the memory again (touch battery cables together) for it to be completely gone. So I repeated the process, removed skim, reset everything, turned the key and... nothing. Moved...

Doesn't have much. I've never heard of a vehicle that won't crank at all due to fuel level. I do need to put a few gallons of fresh fuel in anyway.

A little background. This 2004 3.7 automatic has sat for probably 2-3 years with a dead battery for most of that time. When I first started on it. I was unaware of the SKIM system. More on that later. The shifter cable was seized. I was able to free up the shifter by disconnecting the cable and...
