I don't think so. I did a search on eBay and came up with these headers http://shop.ebay.com/items/__jeep-he...Q_nkwuscZpanal ...Tj

Straight and to the point: NO.

To do a nose-job on an older XJ (Pre-96) you will need-
header panel, hood fenders, grille and some other odds and ends.

For something like this, probably best to find a whole donor XJ, ya know one that got "kicked in the butt"
OR
If your lucky enough to have a J/Y close by with a complete nose.

thanks thats the answer i was looking for i seen it done someplace and wondered what all had to be done

i have done it and its not very hard at all
listen up.
u need front fenders and header panel complete with all lights and bezels/ grill.
if you have factory a/c you will need to trim the backside of the header panel slightly. its easy.
the hoods are the same.
if you can get the front doors off of the donor rig also. i swaped 97 doors onto my 89. you just need to change the slammer.


i got all that for $170 but it didnt come with the corners so we shaved em
search craigslist for someone parting out a newer cherokee and lowball the **** outta them

Rich that looks good. Are those TJ flares? Why did you need to change the doors?

richxj89

yeah those are tj flares. you dont need to change the doors. i just did because mine came without doors and i figured id upgrade. i like haveing the fully open window and the simple interior panel
plus the interior panel fits ok with the older style dash
