Was this what you needed...let me know by your rating of me...thanks!
Don't have a sendable diagram so here it is in words: Beginning with the bottom row, tighten the center bolt to the right of cylinder #4, then the one just to the left of cyl #3. Then the one directly above at the center of both. Continue by tightening the bolt to the left of cyl#2, then to the right of cyl#5 then the one to the front, left of cyl #1, then the remaining lower bolt to the right of cyl#6. Move to the top row, tightening the ont to the right of cyl #2, then the front, above cyl #1, then the rear ones, above cyl #5, then the far back one above cyl 6. Torque is supposed to be 24 foot lbs except bolts 6 and 7 but I've found it makes no difference. What I've found to be important though is to re check torque after running it up to operating temp and permitting it to completely cool down. Also, never tear it down while it's still hot. That promotes warping.
you can find what you need at your local library, they can show you what books to look up, and even print the information for you, normally for about 10 cents a copy.
I can give you the specs but for what part of the motor? There is about 120 different areas.eg head torque,main bearing caps.If you say which area I will happily help you.
Those values and most everything else you need for DIY work are contained in the Haynes manual for your vehicle.
We have one with each of our vehicles and not only give you the info needed to do repairs yourself but also get an idea of how much work a specific repair should (or shouldn't) cost.

You can also buy these from auto parts stores for a few dollars less and sometimes on eBay for even less.
I'm sending you the torque specifications for your main bearings and also your head bolts. I also sent you main bearing and cylinder head tightening sequence. I hope this will be useful
Main Bearings Torque specs. 40-43 Ft. Lbs.
Cylinder Head Torque specs. 56-60 Ft. Lbs.
Check your spark plugs. Without good spark plugs the ignition won't ignite. Just go look for Jeep spark plugs at like AutoZone and they are real cheap. To change them you will need a long socket wrench to twist them out and change each one.
