I have a 92 Cherokee with a PCM with the number 488. Can I use a PCM with the number 851 out of a 95??

Where is the computer located on a 95/95 XJ?

Is it difficult to get to?

Thanks

yes 91-95 HOs can swap around. 96 then went OBDII and they wont work as well as the renix and older ones. I put in a 94 into my 92 a month ago and works great
