I have only had quick look over to determine how to pull the front out, radiator and air con condenser are shot, I did try to turn over the motor but not a thing from the starter motor. Are there any interlocks to do with coolant or anything else, also it is stuck in Park. I need to fire it up before any attempt is made to remove the engine and on that subject, I have seen one YouTube video of dropping the whole subframe with motor and gearbox. Then there was a partial showing just the motor but no video of the preparatory work to remove the Engine. Anyone have any links for removing the engine?

Check GDL Auto utube clips....and the yankee workshop clips on utube...Car Wizard is good and there's a Jeep Dealership...dude wears light blue overalls....if u punch in something simple like 'changing diff oils' you will find their site then base them for your engine swap....sorry I cant remember the workshops name.

ps: not sure you can pull em outta Park without tge engine running...mines a '13 model and I cant....probs no help for you but something that may be the case
