Default Transfering power windows and door locks

So I've acquired another jeep. This one is a 94 sport 1 owner with 135xxx original miles. My current jeep is a 91 limited that's rusted to **** with a bent frame. So was wondering how hard would it be to transfer my power windows and door lock to the 94?

Also grab a wiring diagram and see if the fuse box is wired for them. Just because the pig tails are there doesn't mean it's plug and play.

My '87 does not have power windows & locks, and the wiring is not there either.

Sounds like a major project to me. With plenty of time and patience, it can be done I'm sure.

FWIW, my friend just bought a manual door to replace his power door that was hit. He said everything was bolt in from one door to the other

He still would have to run down all the wiring harnesses from the doors to the main plug ins.

He's also going to have to transfer all the lock motors. His door panels will have the hole in them where the manual crank stuck out for the handle.

Interior is the same color so I'll swap the panels...
