Wrangler Unlimited 3.8L

So I overheated my 2007 jk Jeep Wrangler. I was being stupid and was driving thru a very deep muddy, watery pit and eventually collected enough mud around my radiator I overheated a couple of times. Well started knocking really bad and ended getting towed home. replaced my motor with a jeep 2008 jk motor. It runs great on the street with no issue. When I take it off-road and randomly hit a decent pothole or bump the esp light comes on and eventually every warning light comes on. Every warning light!!! This includes the ding ding dinger!! Says my oil is hot, airbag light esp etc...I know this is false. But when I finally stop and shut key off it will not restart until I clear all the many codes and let cool down even though it isn’t running hot. Last time I had 14 different codes. Once cleared I then can start and get on my way until the next hard bump. So frustrating. Anybody know what’s going on? Please
