just did my own engine swap definitely PITA I used one of those ATV jacks to support the front diff getting it in and out. glad I did when I lifted the engine a little for clearance, it fell out but it fell right on the jack and since it is so wide stayed on the jack (made it easier to put back in that way too) I can relate to uncpathfinder smashed fingers were a major concern - it was easier once I pulled the crossmember off of the diff (torsion bars get in the way of dropping the crossmember) good luck I'll be happy to give any advice I can believe me if it could cause problems it did for me

thanks Precise 1 - good to be here - I have been using this forum for a lot of things. This seems to be my go-to spot for info not in my books.

Howdy ya'll! Just bought a 93 Pathy from a buy-here pay-here lot. Motor had been trashed (#4rod broke and beat both sides of the block and oil pan to pieces). Just got through (finally!) putting a used engine in it. I didn't know it was going to be such a PITA! Lucked out and got one with only 71K on it. Pathy is in fair condition (234k) no rust! had a new transfer case already installed my problem is that they put in one with electronic speed sensor instead of mech. Is there a fix for this? and when I put it in reverse the 4WD light comes on but not the reverse lights. I am going to have to chase wiring. also the radio head unit was gone. installed a new one rears sound blown fronts don't work. anybody got a wiring diagram I think I have seen one here somewhere but can't find it again. Like my profile says it is a work in progress. It came with 32" tires (3out of 4 one is 31) frt wheel bearings next project.
