I have an XJ SE that didn't come with cruise control and I want to know what I'd need and how much it would cost to add cruise control for long trips and such lol. I couldnt find any threads on here that gave me an answer and I haven't found any kits out there that will fit my jeep so i'll most likely have to peice together parts to get this thing to work.

 

Bump, I don't have cruise control either, and wanna know too.

 

heres a universal kithttp://www.bought4less.com/bought4le...0a21636-p.html

 

The Rostra you have pictured, does not come with the controls. (Set/Coast/On-Off).

Rostra is about the only game in town. They were Dana once upon a time, and build really good products. I have been installing them for years. The last one was on a Toyota 4X4 truck that used a Honda "branded" control I got on Feebay for $29.00 complete.

#1 question is "How does my Jeep sense speed"....either a VSS typically electrical, or a cable to the speedo. Once you know that, you can go with just about any kit.
Do not use the wireless remote for controls (Set/Coast/On-Off). The batteries have crappy lives.

Notice you get a universal kit, then you need to add the switches!

The switch I use most often is the Rostra Cruise Control Switch 250-3421, there is a left and right hand version....but the right hand may be listed for the Honda's.

Best guess is you want something like this:

The 250-1223 is the universal kit, then you will still need to add the switches (stalk) of your choice.

My $29.00 Honda set up included the 1223 and a right hand version of the same switch (stalk)

If you need more vacuum (the Yota was a 4 banger), I used 2 inch PVC pipe and a vacuum fitting, painted flat black, tucked behind the brake booster. Worked like a charm.

what if you install a column that has cruise controls on it, is there a plug that may be under the dash that just plugs in? or do you need a control module still?

 

scrool down you have to purchase the control seperate

 

If the column already has switches, you may be able to use them. Contact Rostra to confirm.
