Guys, I am in the process of rebuilding my Jeep and setting the engine is at hand. I have a 92 YJ with the 2.5 and I'm swapping in the 4.0L. I know the only change is the position of the frame mounts and Im reusing the old mounts. My question is, are there any specific measurements I need to take? Im concerned about lateral, forward, tilt and degree angles with the engine sitting on the frame. Or am I over-thinking it? it sits pretty with the old frame mounts and with the correct adaptor plate, the new NV3550 trans sits in the crossmember slots perfectly as well... used the old trans mount pieces from the 2.5. I had an AX 5 behind it....
