Jeep Vin #


I was doing some research and found what originally came in my Jeep. It came with a 2 BBL 4.2L 258 c.i. Straight six, , Dana 30 front axle, AMC 20 rear axle, Dana 20 transfer case, Borg Warner T-18 4 speed manual (6.32:1 First Gear) and a gross weight of 3750lbs.

However, I was finally able to verify the stock engine block displacement by a 360 (no confusion there) casting under the engine mount brackets. AMC engines installed in Jeeps generally have the engine block serial numbers stamped on a plate riveted on the back of the valve covers. I don't have the stock valve covers, which is probably why it leaks, so it doesn't do me any good.
