Top 5 Engine Mods YOU SHOULD DO To Your Jeep Grand Cherokee

[@Renigade16]

I've got 3 of those mods installed on my inline stroker. 1. Can confirm the Viper coil mod is great. 2. 4 hole injectors great bang for the buck. 3. The cover kit looks really nice and it's super easy to install. *I would like to add on with that clutch fan, having an oil cooler with a second fan helps a lot when your off Roading OR just stuck in traffic all the time. ESPECIALLY if you live in the south like I do (Florida).

[@NajarOffroad]

Nice can’t wait to get my injector and cover kit in! I hope it helps with MPGs atleast 1😂 I’m at 10.9

[@TheJlosupra]

How about put some more stickers for more horsepower

[@NajarOffroad]

That video is coming out Friday 😜

[@officialWWM]

The problem is, they add weight 🤔

[@spaceworks2256]

I did that but that … ending u getting more middle fingers than hp 😂

[@randomritchie]

I got four hole injectors from injector rehab about a year ago, they came with a before and after flow bench test that even included ohm's of resistance. They are perfectly balanced didn't notice any power but picked up 1 mpg so they pay for themselves over time.

[@allenmorris4284]

Jeep Liberty has the 4 hole injector an will plug right into your harness in the 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee

[@shaftermike]

I did the K-Suspension 4-hole injectors a few months ago because the #3 injector suffered from the heat soak issue, then started failing. Also installed the heat shield kit from Design Engineering. Now no problems, better mileage and quicker throttle response. Well worth it! Thanks for your excellent videos! I have a 99 WJ.

[@jaxsonkimler5888]

99 wj 💪

I have one to add when it comes to the cooling and fan system. I've done this to my 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the inline 6. My Jeep came with both the electric fans and the clutch five blade fan since it came with the factory tow hitch. The upgrade is relatively simple. And it will sound a little unorthodox. So check out the other videos on how to install it on youtube. What it is basically you take off that five blade fan that comes with the clutch fan. And you put on the clutch fan from a 4.0 V6 Ford engine. If bolts on. And then you screw it on to where the clutch fan would be. The suction power of that fan is so powerful. That my Jeep rarely goes ever over the middle temperature keep in mind I live in Las Vegas where we hit 110-120. Check out the videos and you'll see what I'm talking about relatively easy

[@NajarOffroad]

I have read up on it! Definitely something I want to do since electric fans do go out!

[@edeno328]

I did it after the first year of owning the jeep. Like I said I live in Vegas. and what would happen if I ran the AC and I was at a stop sign. The needle would climb rapidly until I started moving. When I went to check it and look up on it that's when I found the video on youtube. And when I went to go actually do the change when I saw that I had both the electric fans and the clutch fan. Which turns out to be something that she put on all the Jeep Grand Cherokees that come with the tow hitch from the factory. Relatively easy mod you could actually get some of the parts from AutoZone to rent to be able to do that to the clutch. There's a few videos. It works so well that I actually had to change the thermostat cuz I kept getting a check engine light for the engine running or staying too cool.

[@chillsolo8280]

@@edeno328 ive done the same upgrade on a 99 Wj 4.7 limited, but still have issues with heat soak. Being in a high temp state(tx) do you recommend any other upgrades?

[@edeno328]

No I'm not familiar with the V8

[@markcarpenter3600]

@@chillsolo8280 On the I6 you can put a timer on the eletric fan triggered by a thermostat. Even with the insulation kit the fuel line still gets quite hot. Those cats sitting right there. If the intake and fuel lines could have been on the passenger side, I wonder how much more horsepower the engine could have developed? But then oil changes would have been more difficult.

[@trakkerp4202]

I would also recommend getting a transmission cooler kit if you have a 4.0L that didn't come with a factory tow package, they have a tendency to burn the transmission without one and it also cuts out the possibility of getting coolant in the trans fluid if the stock style rad pops.

[@NajarOffroad]

Oh that’s a good mod! Will definitely look into it

[@sergiogomez170]

Do u have the link to a good cooler kit

[@dentondunn4346]

@@sergiogomez170 if you find one let us know

[@waterloo123100]

Removing the check valve in the cooler line is more important then a cooler

[@CounterclutchHD]

If you know a HVAC guy get some of the copper piping insulation - it’s aluminum coated, and has a foam insulator technology - cut it to the length of your fuel injector rail, cut a line down the middle of the HVAC tube insulation from top to bottom, and put it around the rain and use zip ties to hold it in place. Works great for heat soak

[@rodom303]

Injectors were the best engine mod I did to my 4.0 I get 17-22mpg👌 Another engine mod I would add to the list is throttle body, the factory ones are so small

[@NajarOffroad]

I can’t wait for mine to come in! Oh I haven’t done research on the Throttle body but that would be a good one! What do you recommend for that?

[@rodom303]

@@NajarOffroad www.amazon.com/BBK-1724-62mm-Throttle-Body/dp/B001GBRIKW This BBK 62mm is pretty much the most common on the market. Good size for off-roading l, you will definitely notice the improved throttle response especially with the new injectors

[@Taydrum]

4 or 12 hole injectors?

[@atozproductions9660]

12

[@williamhutchins479]

Ah, I've seen an ITB one it made good ho but had a bunch of mods. Never thought about throttle body. Did you have to tune for the injectors to get those mpgs, or any ecu changes?

[@Spiritof_76]

Replacing the injectors is going to be an improvement regardless of 1 or 4 hole if they are old and clogged. I did find rebuilt 4 hole ones for a Caravan at a good price and will be installing them soon. Battery Cables USA allows you to order cables any length, with your choice of end connectors, at a great price.

[@jasecooon]

I’ve got the rail cover kit on mine. It will eventually let the heat soak through but it takes a lot more time. Upgrade the fuel pump with heat shield should prevent vapor locking for the most part

[@OneCarGarage777]

The viper box is my next upgrade! I've been building my WJ for years! I was pumped when I saw that I can finally Chunk the godforsaken coil rail! I bet I've changed mine at least 5 times over the years!

[@michaelbahl1809]

That radiator from jegs had been on back order. I ordered mine last October and they are saying now that it wouldn't be done till this September. I had to cancel and the order and the one I got has the plastic tanks and I lifetime warranty

[@sincitydude7296]

Good video but I suggest buying a tripod bro. Too much wiggling around messes with the eyes. The upgraded injectors didn't work for my ZJ so I went back to stock and now it now works fine. Upgrade injectors sometimes flood your engine with too much fuel. Like the heat soak idea and had just looked at that cat right before I saw your video. Going to try that out. How's that coil pack upgrade running for you so far cuz I wouldn't mind trying that out too.

Mine was 2002 and i lost the head gasket. I tried to replace it myself but I chickened out and there was so much rot underneath, that I junked it. Saddest day ever.

You can only get the 42RE transmission in the I6. Select-Trac mates with the NV242 transfer case.

[@owenhoule3593]

When looking for the new cables is it best to get the 4guage or 2guage?

Depends on what you plan to run on the jeep! I rather have a thicker set to future proof other projects! Amps matter when going through the stock wires vs Jeep cables 2 gauge

What's a good long term vision, mod/rebuild the I-6 or attempt an LS swap? Hate to lose the reliability and toughness of the I-6, but would love some added horsepower and get up. Spec-D has that aluminum radiator for like $150 on Amazon. Did you get the basic Viper coil mod or the supercharger version?

[@LordMondegrene]

Love your upgrades. I'm modding for reliability, power and economy. I plan to get the fuel rail insulation, upgrade the steering and brakes (from a V8 model) and will consider the coil pack, but know nothing about those yet. Need to connect with Jeepers in my area, as I'm new to Jeeping. Have you considered a set of roller rockers, to improve mileage, power, and engine life? I was going to run synthetic oil in mine, until I learned it can't take the high pressure/friction on the lifters/cams/push rods. I had planned to put in a zinc additive to handle the friction, but that clogs the catalytic converter. So I'm saving my pennies for a set of roller rockers. Then I can run synthetic and have a bullet-proof straight six. Thanks!

[@LordMondegrene]

OH! And my four hole injectors and 130 amp alternator are in the mail! And mine only has the clutch fan, so I'm leaning towards a pair of electrics, to increase cooling and power.
