xj and zj front end parts interchangable?
A friend of mine has a whole bunch of nib front end parts for a 96 zj he no longer has. He had planned to overhaul the front end but ended up selling the jeep.
He's giving me 31" tires on aftermarket wheels. And he has upper and lower ball joints tie rods and a hand full of other parts. He's supposed to be bringing it all to work today for me.
Last night on summitracing.com it showed that the part number for the ball joints where the same for both vehicles. In that case I could sure save some money there.
My lift is going on this weekend so I was gona change all that stuff out while I'm already in there tearing things apart.

That's awesome. I'll have everything minus hubs/bearings for a complete front end overhaul.

Yep I'm pretty happy about it. Wheels and tires aren't what I was looking for. But saved me over a grand for now. They will be upgraded by first thaw in the spring tho. Hopefully have my rockets/siders fabbed up, my roof rack and bumpers with winch all done by spring as well.
