hi have a 96 Xj sport 2wd how hard is it to convert it to a 4x4... oh yeah can anybody help me with a tutorial or instructions on how to use seafoam... Thanks..

 

Sell it and buy a 4x4. Conversions can be nightmares unless you really, really have some mechanical skill and the tools/shop to use them.

Seafoam? Just read the can (not being flip, but the instructions are clear)...but I'm not a "believer".

 

for a 4x4 conversion not worth the $$ unless your going to go nuts with it and build a buggy type rig with bigger axles and a better t-case

 

Of all the vehicles to convert to 4wd... I would say the XJ is probably one of the easiest to convert. The front suspension and steering are identical. You could probably get a 4x4 for cheaper.... but if you have access to the parts and you do the work it can be done.
Just a general list you would need.
Front axle with matching gear ratio to rear.
4wd tailshaft for trans, or complete 4wd trans.
Tcase
Front and rear driveshafts.

 

its very simple if you have a donor xj of the same year and good knowledge of automotive repair
