This probably been asked before but I couldn't find it. :)
Since I ran into other problems in the past...
I'm checking out all my options for replacing my 1997 4.0 OHV 2wd auto. I found a similar engine out of a 1997 4wd.

Is everything compatible as with the bolt pattern, crank, flywheel and torque converter? Use the 2wd flywheel and tc or the other way around or it doesn't matter?
Thanks ahead of time!
 






I think I answered my own question, lol. After looking at the parts stores they list the same long block for both. Doh!
