OK some may call me traitor!

Here it is! I have most of a TJ, read my custom mods in the intro. I have the complete drive train out of a 85 Toyota pick-up, 22RE fuel injected. I am thinking on powering a Jeep with the complete Toyota drive train. I have a 4cyl in it now and the Toy motor has a lot more get up and go and way more efficient. Plus I may have a toyota turbo diesel on the way which would bolt up. But for the strength increase and reliability I think it would be a good swap. Plus the axles are super strong, just add a birfield eliminator kit and I am good to go. What do you guys think?

I think you need to put that turbo deisel in my JK, that's what me thinks....

[TJFETISH]

But you cant have one ! Actualy you can but I dont think the JK would be a good choice for a Toyota motor alot of work and custom adapters. However Jeep are now offering the CRD already in the JK, you can also get it as a crate motor. I will be running mine on veg oil though, as its free.

Why would you be called a traitor? Modifications are expected.

Just was wondering what hell I would fetch for using all Toyota stuff. As far as the Cummins idea why is that not good, its heavy but still better than many other choices.

I was just reading an article in JP today that was talking about the same thing. With direct injection, and the output companies are getting with their 4 banggers these days, it may well be the future of Jeeps. Could you imagine a Jeep with a direct injected 4 cyl with turbo and/or supercharged?? Doesn't seem right. But with fuel prices where they are, if the numbers stack up performance wise. I say go for it. Sounds like it should be an awesome upgrade.

What kind of hp and torque does the Toy combo produce?

[TJFETISH]

112hp and 144ft lbs. Way better than Jeep the torque is made at 1750rpm also. Thats the 22re the Turbo Diesel 6cyl. is way more 190hp and 320ft lbs.
