Default Kj Injectors

Hi guys, I've read in previous posts you can use the kj injectors in 99+ xj's I was wondering what year kj injectors I can use for a 99 classic?

Default Jeep fuel injectors...

I've never heard of using the KJ injectors. That doesn't mean it won't work though... What I have found is MANY EBAY auctions for replacement performance injectors. They use (I believe) Bosch injectors that provide increased fuel delivery and greatly improved spray pattern. Ive been thinking about getting some for my own Cherokee! I was hoping to get some for Christmas, but ya know how that goes...
I'm going to include a link to just one of the many auctions for these products. Or, just go to Ebay motors and search Cherokee injectors. Many auctions available. One last thing, watch the video at the bottom of the auction page! You can see the difference in the spray patterns!
Good luck to ya!

Never heard of this either.

I'd guess that you'd need an 00-01 XJ not a 99 due to the coil pack ignition but I could be completely off base.

Hopefully someone else can chime in and give you some info because I'm interested in hearing about this too.

What I do know is that you can use injectors from some mix 90's Chrysler vehicles to achieve the same goals. There's lots of info on here on those injector swaps.

Yeah I forget what thread it was but I read on here the 99+ can use the kj injectors and apparently they are so similar you don't even need to re set the computer

Four hole ev14 injectors from 3.7 Chyrsler. Pre 1998 4.0, swap out connectors or run injector adapters, post 1999 4.0, plug and play.

In case you lose yours in the woods, you can even use the schrader valve cap on the fuel rail. Both are 7/16-14 threads.

I am sure that you could pull the horn and find a way to mount and wire it to a Cherokee.

Wheels? Anyone know the bolt pattern and offset?

I keep hoping to find a liberty renegade in the JY that I can score rear disks and the roof light bar from.

Want to do something similar to this
