If I swap the 95 jeep 2.5 to 4.0 will Dana 35 hold up and does the 4.0 wranglers have the same transfer case as the 95 2.5 jeeps

You need engine, trans and transfercase from the 4.0. The transfercase of the 4 banger has a 21 spline input shaft where as the 4.0 transfercase has a 23 spline input shaft

Aw12345 great answer lol

as said above. It is imperative you get an AX15 trans to fit behind the 4.0, which I believe was 94-95. The weak AX5 just will not last too long, even in a four banger. They were just too lightweight of transmissions. Novac is a company that makes adapters and has some informative information on just such a swap. I read there that the AX15 will even handle a Small Block Chev in moderate build or stock form. Likely Stock form would be best. With the 4.0 making 190 hp? you could figure a Small Block making 250-300 hp would still be safe. But go rock crawling and bogging and you will soon find the weak points in the trans, transfer and axles & drive shafts. A 4.6 or 4.9 stroker will likely be a nice swap. The thing is, a 4.0 and trans weighs in, if I'm not mistaken @ 500lbs. A SBC comes in around 450lbs.

AX15 started in 90 in the YJ.

Good time to do an auto swap if you wanted one.

Can u put bigger pistons in the 2.5 wrangler or a bigger cam and build up the head

literally just did this swap about a week ago. There is a bit of fab work involved and like said above you need motor back. If you want more power I wouldn't waste time on the 4 either find a 6 or v8. I don't know where your located but there are quite few jeep junk yards you can get the motor back with wiring for a reasonable price.

Scotty's jeep went under, I wonder if it could have been the horrible customer service, the bad attitudes, or the ridiculously high prices? Hmmm.

A couple of years I would guess. Too bad, because the I E needs a jeep wrecking yard.
