Smile MAKE OR BRAKE IT A 4x4 conversion!

Tomorrow is the day I will be pulling the 4x4 front end out of a 97 XJ. I will install the 4x4 front end into my 2000 XJ . I hope the years are close enough. I have been reading some other forums and I know that I have to pull the speed sensor. But what I am looking for is the correct list of parts I need to pull. I'm trying to keep this to one weekend project because I need the truck for work on Monday. If you have the knowledge I am looking for please share I would be more than greatful!
