Default Driveshaft Question
I have a question about front drive shafts. My friend has an 86 cherokee and and 89 cherokee so will the front drive shafts interchange or does it depend on the T-case? Both are auto trans's with I6 motors, Thanks...Tj

'86 was a transition year so a tape measure is in order in this situation.
