For reference, My local U-Pull sells rear diff with brakes for $140, without brakes for $100.

Those are Canadian, so about $100/$70 USD.

 

All man i wish they sold them that cheap around me

 

Yeah, they're not that cheap around here either. Anywhere between 150-300 depending on what axle (they know the diff between a d35, a s60, a Ford 9", and a GM 14b) and where you go.

 

That sucks. Any rear axle is $100 at my local junkyard

 

I have a 96 Cherokee 4cyl (with air but condenser was damaged) and now that it's getting hotter out, I look around in the pull its and all I see are 6cyl cherokees.
Can I use a condenser from a 6cyl in front of my small 4cyl radiator?
The hoses look to be the same. Well, usable with the drier..


Thanks E

 

AFAIK, there's no difference in size between the radiators between 2.5 and 4.0L

Comparing part numbers yields similar evidence... though there are more options for the 6 cyl, the 1193 radiator fits both models.

So as far as fitting in front of your RADIATOR, you shouldn't have a problem. Whether or not it's the right volume for your AC system, on the other hand, may be the bigger factor here.

 

There's a HUGE difference in radiators.
The 6cyl has a WIDE but thin one and the 4cyl is more of a square, that narrowly fits between the steering box and the pass side body/frame under the battery.
When I was trying to order a radiator a while back either for my Comanche or this Cherokee, I was running into the same thing from 'parts' suppliers..
Here's the sizes that you can see the differences.

Since the 6cyl condenser fits IN FRONT of it's radiator, I just assumed that the larger surface area would be more efficient in extracting heat compared to the 4cyl one that is pretty much the shape of the its' radiator.

I just wanted to know if any of the 4cyl owners (in HOT regions) have done this for better cooling and therefore colder charge inside the cabin through the Evaporator..
Like you said, The R-134 might take another can but hey, if it works, Fantastic!!

Yes, I saw that radiator as well. I just assumed it was an error in info... because I've only ever seen the rectangular-shaped ones whether it's a 4 or 6 cyl. Not sure if people are upgrading to them or what. I've only ever seen the square ones in CJs, YJ, TJs, etc.

 

Doing the rear disc conversion, it says ZJ master, booster and proportioning valve. Grabbed that today. But a question the valve on the 98 ZJ only has 2 lines coming from it, my 93 has three. What do I need to do?

 

Swap the zj guts to the xj valve

 

Do you guys know if this would still apply to a swap going into a 1988 Comanche as well?

Was going to do the swap for the next owner or just add it in the sale.
It was a 1995 booster/master/Pop valve.

Thanks again guys. Good info without the flaming.

Comanches have a unique brake distribution block because of the load-sensing proportioning valve (that often doesn't even work).

 

Does your 93 have Anti-lock? I only ask because I just removed a booster and MC from a 96 w/ ABS this past weekend. There were only 2 lines coming from the prop valve, but that's because they were going INTO the ABS pump which distributed the brake fluid from there.

If so, there should be a "plug" on the ZJ valve that you would remove.

 

I've seen the small / narrow radiators at the junkyard - seemed like it was a early 4-cylender

 

The c/k10b brake lines aren't working for me. Anyone else have that issue?
