Will a wj front axle bolt into my 96 xj? I've found one I can get for free. It already has cross over steering. I was thinking it would be a nice upgrade. I know the lug patters different but it comes with wheels.

Straight 6? It doesn't. You have a Renix motor, my friend.

It's fuel injected. There are a few sensors to worry about, but I haven't needed to learn them yet. Mine was doing that recently for a couple weeks, and then I drowned it while offroading. Once it dried off and cooled down, that problem was gone
Mine's also an 88, by the way.
