Gm 5.3 swap in my jk
Well since the hail storm I've made up my mind and I'm doing the 5.3 swap. I will be doing all my self. and I'm going to try and do it on a budget as in what I make on my motor and trans in the jeep. Just the only thing I'm wondering is what tranny to use if I should keep it a manual or put a auto in. So any thots on that let me know. And I will be taking step by step pix.

I know most people doing the swap use the 6L80E trans. If you were to use a manual I think the only real option would be some sort of T56. I have no idea though if they make a 4wd version of that. So are you using the MoTech kit and installing it yourself?
