Budget Builds: What Junkyard Parts Will Fit Cherokee?
Will the JK rear UCA work on my XJ with a 3.5 lift and are they really any better than my stock ones? Does this mod require any kind of fabrication or is it a bolt on job?

There's a nifty trouble light under the hood, passenger side, mounted in the engine well above the front passenger tire of most late-80's through mid-90ks silverado and gmc full sized pick_ups. It's cord is about 15 feetlong and can be manually rolled right back into it's case. Very convienient. Has it's own on/off switch also.

" XJ '97+ doors onto older cherokees = one piece windows and better mirrors"
Do the 97 and newer doors bolt directly onto the older body style?

no they require some modification. If 98+ the hinges must be swapped. All 97-01 doors have a different latch system as well, so be sure to grab the striker and striker bolts when you grab the doors

Anyone know of a slightly longer driveshaft that may work on the rear? Mine has slid Out of the rear tailshaft on 2 different occasions now! & I'd love to do a SYE But currently LowOn Dough!

I don't believe GC ones will fit
