LS Swap Kit

FSJ
Full-Size Jeep — Wagoneer / Grand Wagoneer / J-Truck

1963–1991

The Grand Wagoneer and J-trucks were built big. This kit puts the right engine in them.

Full-Size Jeeps — the Wagoneer, Grand Wagoneer, FSJ Cherokee, and J-series pickup trucks — are among the most natural LS swap candidates in the Jeep family. Their spacious engine bays, solid drivetrains, and classic proportions make them ideal platforms. Novak has engineered conversion systems for these vehicles for decades, and the FSJ kit reflects that depth of knowledge.

About This Kit Why the FSJ LS Swap Kit Exists

Built From Actual Swap Experience

The Full-Size Jeep — Wagoneer / Grand Wagoneer / J-Truck LS swap has been done hundreds of times by Novak customers and engineers. The parts in this kit are not assembled from a catalog - they're what works, confirmed by the people who have done it.

The Straightforward Answer

The biggest challenge in an LS swap isn't the fabrication - it's knowing what to buy. This kit removes that obstacle. It's Novak's direct answer to the question every builder eventually asks: "What do I actually need?"

Component Links to Expert Guidance

Every part links to its own product page with detailed specifications, application notes, and engineering documentation. You're not just buying parts - you're buying access to the knowledge behind them.

Three Tiers for Every Budget

Not every builder wants to do the full conversion in one shot. The Foundation tier lets you start with the mechanical core and add systems as your build progresses. The Complete tier ensures nothing is missed on a ground-up swap.
