" From: "Jim Blair" <carnuck@xxxxxxxxxxx> " " A: I would opt for a 998/999 (all are water cooled) due to the heavier rear " band (the case of the 904 was remade to accommodate it) which was the second " weakest point of the 9xx series trans. The other weak spot is the neck of " the torque converter and the rear sprague tearing loose was another. (the " 999 case I have from an '00 Wrangler 4.0L has a bolt in rear sprague) nb. for an older-car swap, avoid the 32re, electronic version of the 999/32rh. i don't know what year they switched - '96 [obdII]? otoh if you were doing a complete drivetrain swap, 4.0 + 32re from a wrangler, you'd also be taking the ecm which controls the trans. doesn't the 999 have a stronger pump than the 998? i thought that was the major difference. ________________________________________________________________________ Andrew Hay the genius nature internet rambler is to see what all have seen adh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and think what none thought _______________________________________________ AMC-List mailing list AMC-List@xxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.amc-list.com/mailman/listinfo/amc-list or go to http://www.amc-list.com
