So I'm probably behind on this.. But does anyone think or have heard anything about this motor possibly going into the Wrangler? If its powerful enough for the grand Cherokee which usually runs a v-8 wouldn't it do great in the wrangler plus give jeep the option to stay with solid axles?

And solid axels and diesel go hand in hand how?

 

He may be thinking with the better mpg of the diesel, they won't get rid of the solid axles.

 

Yes rumor has it in 2016 Jeep is thinking about switching from solid axles to IFS. According to an article in auto guide.

 

is that the engine in the RAM 1500?

allegedly 28 MPG with that setup.

 

I'm not sure here is a link to the site. If they could make a manual as well this motor is awesome.
