i have an 89 cherokee laredo 4.0 auto 4x4. i was just wondering if someone could tell me which tranny, transfer case, and axles i have or how to find out if there are different options

also mine has part time and full time 4wd

 

From your clue about having part time@full time 4x4, I can say you have the NP242 transfer case. Need more clues or pictures on the axles. If you have the auto, its the Aisin AW4. If you have the 5 speed it could be either the Peugot Ba10/5 or the more durable Aisin AX15. I still like the peugot, though everyone hates it. Feels more truck like to me than the Aisin AX15. But I also love the 1984 year XJs, with their Awesome carburated 2.5 liter 4 banger and Briggs@Stratton like GM2.8 V6. Oh Yeah!

 

Trans: AW4
T-case: NP242
Front axle: High Pinion Dana 30
Rear axle: Either a Dana 35 or Dana 44, but probably is a Dana 35

 

awesome, thanks for the pic

 

just curious, is there a specific package the d44 came on? or was it just some had them and some didnt?

 

between 87-89 there were cherokee's that came equiped with the dana 44 from the factory that had the tow package. it was pretty rare, but they are out there

 

It has been said there are some found in the 1990 model year also.
