Jeep XJ LS Swap Ep.1: Rust Repair and Sound Deadening

In this episode we address a rusty passenger floor board and install brand new sheet metal. Once that is complete we upgrade the comically insufficient factory sound deadening with some heavy duty heat barrier/sound deadening material from Summit Racing!

Amanda really wants to take it off-roading but it’s just too nice and I don’t want to risk damaging the paint! The XJ is basically one gigantic scuff mark so…. 😂

Dude, if you could do a really detailed explanation of how to LS swap a jeep Cherokee I would love that. It’s always been a goal of mine, but I do not know anything about swapping motors. The most intimidating part for me is wiring and getting everything to work together.

Hey Moe, that’s what I’m planning to do but it’s going to be a little while before I get to that part of the project!
