The only problem that I know of that you will have is the DS lengths. The 4.0, Auto tranny combo is a bit longer then the 4.0, 5-speed combo. So, if you want to swap the axle out of your 5-speed rig, into the auto rig that is fine just don't swap the DS. I put a D44 rear axle out of an 87 XJ, into my 91. Bolted right in.
