Our 1993 Jeep Cherokee Sport needed its tired engine rebuilt, so we figured why not give it a decent upgrade while we're at it? Of course, we wouldn't miss the opportunity to shoot timelapse video of every step along the way and hit you with another amazing addition to our Redline Rebuild series! With help from our friends at RockAuto.com, we source a crankshaft and pistons from a different Jeep engine (4.2L) and stroke this XJ's legendary 4.0L straight6 AMC engine to a slightly more powerful and torquey 4.6L.
