Based on experience your best way to go is to put a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7 into that 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7 needing the engine. Forget the 4.0 liter six because of ECM mismatch. Also, note that in 2003-2004 there were two 4.7 engines. The standard one VIN letter N, and the High Output 4.7 VIN letter J. Don't swap them around. The eighth digit of you VIN identifies the engine.
