I purchased a 98 Cherokee limited 5.2 v8 almost a year ago & it’s in great shape! Your videos gave me a TON of motion to put more cash into & care! I’ll upload videos soon! Blessings to you & yours! Checking in from Memphis,Tn (38118)
Yeah, that’s super clean! Love the videos man, and both your rigs. I really like the stance and the two fingers upfront// three in the rear - plus she sounds great too!
Nice! ZJ.,Don't think i seen this video. Seen some of your stuff years ago.. Got my zj 318 in the garage on stands. Southern wagon brought back to Detroit 5 years ago..Everything replaced. Looking at poke and stroke the motor or a conservative performance motor..local..
30 years later, I still dont understand how they stuffed 2 different v8's in these old grand cherokees. There's barely any room! My little brother has the 4.0L, straight six, still daily drives it in rust belt Toronto, and I thought that thing was nearly impossible to work on because it's a tight fit. Couldn't imagine the v8's I have the same 5.2 in a 2001 mexican ramcharger, and I can legit jump in the engine bay, there is so much room.
Considering that the 5.2 and the 5.9 are the same exterior dimensions, there is just enough room to fit either V8 into the ZJ but it is fairly tight in there with little to no room between the front accessories and the fan/radiator. In the Durango and the Ram there is plenty of space between the front accessories and fan/radiator. The hood and front fenders are longer on the Dodge trucks than the ZJ.
Thank you brother. The heads are RHS Indy X non-ported iron 2.02" Intake/1.62" Exhaust with stiffer valve springs. The heads came fully assembled with valves, valve springs, and retainers. They were $1200 but that was back in 2012 so i'm pretty sure they cost more now.
Thank you brother. ZJs are amazing vehicles, I've had my 5.2 since 2007 and my 5.9 since 2013. Both were fully stock when i got them, now they are both modified. I never get bored of either Jeep. They look good, sound good, not too heavy, very quick, and built to last.
I didn't have to change the shocks but it is recommended, they were changed a long time ago before the springs were cut. The shocks are Bilstein 4600 series.

Thank you brother, really appreciate that. Finally got the stance correct and couldn't be happier with the Jeep.

The idle is absolutely sick... I'm sure you have posted this already what heads are they?

Your videos are very nice friend, I have a machine like that too =) a hug from Brazil.

What stage is that
Did you have to change out shocks? What did you use?
I didn't have to change the shocks but it is recommended, they were changed a long time ago before the springs were cut. The shocks are Bilstein 4600 series.
Sounds good
Thank you brother

@@98ZJ318 no thanks you & last question , what exact 6a box did you run brother?
@@crv3777 I'm running the MSD Digital 6AL Ignition Box
Did have to have any wheel spacers for the back spacing on calipers?
No wheel spacers were needed
What is thing on your exhaust? Is that an electric servo ?
That is a 3 inch electric cutout to make the exhaust dump after the headers and Y-Pipe rather than out of the tailpipe.
I wonder how you did that idle its like a drag old v8
The idle is set at 650 rpm which gives it that choppy sound.
@@98ZJ318 oh its that easy?? Very nice
How many inches did you cut off the springs?
1 coil was removed
@@98ZJ318 and bro I like your Jeep I wanna make my 98 the same by any chance do you have any pics of the springs too see how I can cut them
@@MiguelGarcia-sr3su Thanks brother, unfortunately I don't have any pictures
