Ball jpints ?
Have a set of ball joints for my wj. Well the motor blew up and I need new ball joints for my xj. Does anybody know if the ball joints for the wj are the same as the xj. They both have a d30 front rear

This right here leads me to believe they are different. I really don't know though

Ok, so I confirmed my suspicions as did "seriousoffroad." I assumed since certain suspension components are commonly swapped amongst certain jeeps, so too would the ball joints.
However..
The upper ball joints you have will work as replacements.
The lowers have a different taper apparently, not the same as the XJ and will not work
Wrangler JK & Grand Cherokee WJ use the same ball joints. My mistake
.
Thank you. Anything else ?
