Move the lever from 2H to 4H, or 4L. Just cap off the vacuum lines that go to the axle, install the 94 axle and be done with it.

you may need to upgrade the master cyl. as well, I did this swap on my MJ. I put a 95 XJ axle on a 87 MJ mainly to get rid of the vacuum disconnect. I ended up having braking probs after. unfortunately I was moving and ended up selling the truck before I was done with it so I'm not sure of the out come.
