first, welcome to the forum.
If you have a 1990 jeep XJ and a 4" lift on 33" MT you SHOULD know that the 4.0 is NOT a V6 it's a I6. STRAIGHT not V.
I'M NOT YELLING
this link should help.

just remove the driveshaft, remove the yoke nut, washer, old seal, place the new seal in.
good luck.

ok first you have to roll the jeep on to its side, then you have to remove the t-case, and then take off the drivers door. take your drivers door and throw it off a mountain and WALLA..all done!!!. jk, just follow the write-up in previous post, it is right on the spot
