Default XJ front end conversion?
This isn't something I'm planning to do right now, but I haven't seen people discuss it yet either. What goes into swapping a ~95 model front to a ~99 model front? Would it be bolt on? Just something I have been wondering about.

I'm not quite sure about what all is needed to do the swap, but on Trucks, (spike tv) they are doing this conversion. It has been mentioned on NAXJA for sure. Check that out.

You should only need the front clip and you will be good to go. However it may look a bit off as far as the body lines matching up.
