I used car manifolds actually. It fit just fine. My donor was a charger and I reused most of the oem stuff.

I used a 1996 Dakota starter. Just make sure you get the face mount as there are two options.

The 12" and 11" clutch are the same from what I remember. At least on the Dakota. The flywheel looks right and if memory serves the Dakota and ram set ups are very similar. My apologize but I didn't see the posts until today. I don't think the Hemi flywheel and starter combo will fly with a...

R and D lol. I had to design it based on measurements alone. Thats a donkey design custom part there. If you need pictures or a closer look at anything let me know.

That is correct on the ps pump. I used the stock hemi pump with an adapter to the YJ gearbox. I made a short hydraulic hose with the right ends for about 15 dollars. I was El Cheapo with wiring so I had the stock harness and programmed ECM. Using a stand alone would have been alot easier but...

I made this post because I had to piece it together. I figured it would help if someone broke the process down. The amount of stock parts is nice and only had a couple home made units. PS you don't need to detune the PS pump and the wheel turns like a Cadillac.

Just look at my part breakdown. You will need the slave assembly off a 90's Dakota and a new nose adapter for the AX15. All readily available. I used the stock YJ master with a braided hose from fleabay. Advanced adapters has a complete setup too for a couple hundred bucks.

Any thing I can help with just let me know. I have about 3000 miles so far and the only issue was the clutch master. The master barely puts out enough volume to disengage the new clutch disc.

The 3.7 flywheel should bolt up that I know of. The 11" Dakota clutch is about what I would say is minimum though. And consider upgrading the traction devices.

The flywheel was out of a 07ish Dakota 4.7. Any 3.7 4.7 5.7 flywheel should work if its internal balanced 8 hole. I used the holley black heart mounts and they went in exactly as described. I loose set them to verify and they ended up just as described. Holley has the instruction on their...

I guess the question is whether the engine will start with the pump jumper in. If it does you need to look into what tells the pump to start. If it doesn’t start the next look is the asd system. I also ran into a crank no start when the pcm wasn’t getting a crank signal from the ignition switch...

It is now officially done. All the hoses hooked up, all the welds painted, and function tested. Thank you everyone for the support and advice. I hope this write up will encourage and help those in the future. Remember, engine swaps are only limited by your imagination and will power. Please...

Okay phase two has begun. Time to reinforce the chassis. I may start a new thread for this but figured I would give a sneak peak. Amazing what you can trade extra parts for here.

So couple hundred miles in now. Any gear will do. First not needed, second new first, third second first, and 70 mph is the new 55. I am worried about the tiny rear driveline and D35. I need to upgrade before they blow. Salvage some money by selling them.

Okay everyone. She is done. Wiring heat shielded. Everything hooked up. And it is way to fast for a YJ. Time to make questionable life choices.

The way it revs I agree. Plus I ran over my wheel chocks in reverse with no throttle. Poor Dana 35

Exhaust done.
