XJ
 Cherokee and ZJ Grand Cherokee 4.0L engine blocks interchange.

2000+ TJ Wrangler and WJ Grand Cherokee 4.0L engine blocks interchange.

XJ/ZJ blocks and 2000+ TJ/WJ blocks do not interchange without significant modifications. (1991 to 1995 YJ and 1997-1999 4.0L TJ Wrangler blocks will interchange in XJ/ZJ and visa-versa).

TJ/WJ 4.0L Engine blocks underwent clean sheet design changes effective in the 1999 WJ Grand and 2000 TJ Wrangler. These blocks are not interchangeable with XJ/ZJ engine blocks. The reason is motor mount bolt holes and belt driven accessory mounting bolt holes are in different locations, or not present at all, TJ/WJ vs. XJ/ZJ.

: "Regular" (not Grand) Cherokees 84-01

lots of places, but mainly from the top of the cowl. No need to seal the pipe to pipe connections the dry-fit seal is enough to keep water out.

There's also the autozone spectre 3" duct that works well too. No PVC needed. Just run from now to cowl. Some sealant. Close front of box and boom. Instant snorkel. I loves me my snorkel lol

So, I got this hairline crack in my driver side door that's been driving me nuts for 3 years since it rattles constantly. It's next to the motor mount for the window, could i patch it up with some JB weld?

Can't find the picture i took of it a year ago, so i guess I'll have to get another.

NO. Cut out a piece of sheet metal the same thickness or a little thicker and pop-rivet it to the door.
