Can you do away with the a/c? I'm trying to remove the heater core and ran into problems disconnecting the a/c lines. It's not charged and I'll never use it so I figured I'll just cut the lines and do away with it but I don't want to run into more problems later on.

 

yes u can. Get an AC bypass pulley if u want to remove the compressor.

If u want to leave it alone. Just disconnect the clutch wires.

Transmission mounts is easy to replace.

Support the transmission with a jack and piece of wood, remove four cross member bolts/studs, and remove the four nuts that is holding the crossmember in the middle. And two more nuts or bolts that holds the mount on the transmission. U may need to slide the hanger off the exhaust

 

Awesome, thanks

 

Hi i have 2 98 cherokees. one is a 2 door and the other is a 4 door. one is auto and the other is stick, what problem will i run into if i swap them?

 

Are you swapping trannys?

 

Nope, he shouldn't have to.

Make sure you have the right kind of mount, and that it goes on the right way. There's at least two different ones I've seen, one has offset studs that go into the crossmember, the other does not. Also, the mounts are made with a little angle to them. When you mount it up, put something flat like a screwdriver on the bottom of the mount. You want it to slope down towards the front tires or you'll have a hard time mounting the crossmember back up.

Also, you should replace your motor mounts at pretty much the same time or they will wear out quickly. (Do only one side at a time when you're doing it)

 

Normally if people have 2 jeep, swapping them is as easy as parking one up and getting in the other and driving . We would imagion that by the lack of details

 

You've got all the parts for it, should be pretty straight forward. Everything transmission related needs to be swapped over. Search for write ups, they're out there.

 

I've got a friend getting ready to junk his wj.... Any parts I can take off for my Xj?

 

Depends. Is your xj lifted, modded etc. There's the thread, what JY parts will fit, that show some steering items IIRC however you'll need to search fully. What year WJ anyways

 

I know the LCAs can be used. Check here:

Not hard. 2 bolts and 2 nuts hold the crossmember up. 4 nuts attach the mount to the crossmember. 2 nuts attach the mount to the transmission bracket.

 

I love clown. He always knows what's threads im referring too lol.

OP, check the first pAge of this. May be able to use knuckles and some steering items however i think its only if your over 4.5" of lift. I may be mistaken so don't quote me

 

Steering & knuckles

 

Motor mounts got done last Saturday along with header, 703s, and 99+ intake. Just ran out o time for the transmission mount. This Saturday is valve cover gasket and cowl intake.
