I got my little 3.9 back in place after my 5.2 Locked up going down I-75 the other day and last night some ******* Decided to slash all four tires so even tho i have the Original engine in it i can take it down the road to test it

Who gets the satisfaction of wasting another persons Paycheck????
I haven't pissed anybody off lately and i have no Enemies that i know of so i assume it was a couple of ****** just destroying other peoples property for fun of it or something like that

Now i gotta buy all new tires which is gonna be another $180 X 4 (AGAIN)

just givin an update.. i didn't take any pictures of the swap cuz lets face it, who wants to see someone Downgrade there engine??

Keep it under the watchful eye of a camera. Then hand it over to the police. Let's hope it doesn't happen again. I don't know where you live but if you own a home where it sits, maybe you can get home owners insurance to cover it. Just a thought. I hate to hear that happened to you brah.

Did you verify that there were holes in the tires? Could you see the slash? I mean what if someone just let the air out of all the tires. Thy would suck if you're buying new shows and didn't need to. I know it's a dumb question, but I've seen that happen before.

I would go with whichever rout is cheaper... i was gonna do a 4x4 Conversion but it wasn't cost effective and it would be cheaper to buy a 4x4

the manual conversion is more cost effective than the transfer case replacement. the problem is availability. The t case is cheaper, but not as cost effective...
