Can I reuse my hand/e-brake cables when I swap in my C8.25 rear? I plan on doing a disc brake conversion too. If not, can I use the cables from a ZJ with rear discs?

Right lower control arm wiggles back and forth slightly (turning motion)
Exhaust kind of close to underbody side rail

Ok in light of ny quest to do my front pipe replacement....i bought the gasket for where the down pipe connects to the cat but does it use a gasket to connect to the manifold? Haven't even looked what type of connection it is....

Hey, I'm about to get a remanufactured engine from a local shop. Was just wondering, what kind of questions should I be asking this guy about a remaned 4.0L? I want to get a good idea of what I need to know so I can tell if he's knows what to know, if that makes any sense.
