Sandman: Snow in Florida!! LOL - Tim

Jash: I am in Colorado and it took awhile to realize. It's ok to feel good about seeing a California plated Prius stuck in the ditch! LOL - Tim

Here's a picture of one of the mufflers welded up. Tim

Wes: I built my own. Still trying to figure the active exhaust out. I used 2x Magnaflow 14009's with 3 in exhaust pipes. Picture attached of the 14009's. I like the sound aggressive outside but good inside. I used a crossover pipe to minimize drone. It's dual exhaust straight out the back with...

Andrew: I'll be out there next week. I'll have to talk to Tyler about. I'd certainly want a manual!! Tim

Wes: I am not sure it is a fair comparison? I used a used 392, 8HP75 Trans and MP3022 Transfer Case. But I'd say about half the cost. AMW was $40k so 20k savings? But they use new. Once you drive it, you know it was worth the cost and effort. I only wish I could have kept my Manual Transmission...

Nanook: Todd at Jeep Speed Shop has some great youtube videos talking about using truck or car engines. But Dodge specifically like a 2500/3500 has the lower HP 6.4L/392 Hemi I think it's rated at 420HP and about the same torque. A few year older ones 20/21 used the 8HP70 newer ones might use...

PogiPR: Yes I am still working through some DTC's! You do become an expert at Jeep code and various scanners. But the goal is to have this be without and DTC's or dash lights. That said all warranties are now null and void and I can't take it to any dealer for repair. Only because Witech, Jeeps...

Stingray: You still looking to do this? I know this is a 2 year old post! I just completed my 2023 Gladiator, 392 OEM swap. Many of the parts purchased from wrecked 392 Wranglers! It seems that owners crash these things at a prodigious rate! LOL

Northridge: I can see the broken transfer cases and transmission! A 5 speed manual 392 Jeep would certainly be the BOMB! It would be to easy and tempting to do too many burnouts though! - Tim

Rich: Keep me in mind! I think you can get the book in the attached picture on Amazon? If you don't already have it? -Tim

ItDodge: I like the 392 in my Gladiator too! I went the DIY route. But certainly worth the effort and expense! Only wish I could have kept the manual! -Tim

Rich: If you're coming from the East on I-70. Exit 352 (By Limon, CO, the Federal Penitentiary LOL!). That's State route 86, can take you to Colorado Springs, without coming all the way into Denver. Any how I am just off of SR-86. Tim

Cnash: Let me know what you find out? I miss my manual. There is brand new getrag 238 for sale on ebay right now!! On paper the getrag 238 won't take the HP/Torque of the 392. They did uses it behind the 5.7 Hemi's and 4.7 (not a hemi but same bellhousing bolt pattern). But that was when...

Nanook: I am not sure the Diesel bellhousing is the same as the Hemi? The 392 is 480/480 HP/Torque. If you have the select trac transfer case (MP1622) you could use that. However the Jeep 392 8HP75 has a unique transfer case bolt pattern and the output shaft is, 43 spline. Even if you have an...

CNASH: I wanted to keep my manual too. But aside from a 20 year old Getrag238, NV4500 or G56, there aren't any other options. You're not going to get the electronics to work. I heard AMW did this for a customer but the cruise control wouldn't work. Also I think they still needed some electronic...

Rich: I didn't remove my body. The 3.6L came out easy through the front. Grill and radiator fairly easy to remove. Didn't even remove the bumper or winch. I did put the 392, 8HP75 Trans and MP1622 transfer case in as one unit. The one piece motor "perches" are the easiest way to go. The 8HP75...

Rich: I think Jeep Speed Shop is close to offering one. Todd (Jeep Speed Shop) has some great video's on youtube. I can't say enough about Tyler the owner of Tom's 4x4 SuperStore in Chattanooga. He was very helpful. They may offer a kit now? I went the DIY route. If you're sort of mechanically...

RougeShot: 3.6L was/is fine. I really had no complaints, the Pentastar is a very capable engine. As for the Hemi, it was really something I just wanted to do. Now that it's completed (or nearly), I am super happy I did do it. I still miss my manual transmission. Maybe a Getrag 238 in the future...

Hemy: I'd say half of what AMW wants. They run about $40k, so $20k savings. This was using a used 392 and 8HP75 trans (and MP3022 transfer case) out of a wrecked Wrangler. These are easy to find (LKQ/EBAY) seems like the owners wreck these at a prodigious rate!! LOL The Mojave's and the 392...
