Like I said, the thing blew 2,3 and 4. I cannot find a decent priced motor and nobody seems to have one for the 99.
That being said I'm parting it out. I have a thread in part out. If any of you want/need something please PM me.

I was told no. They are different on the 1999s. Don't know what but every salvage yard and the Jeeps Unlimited guy says that the 99 is different. But that being said, I couldn't even find one of the others for a price decent enough to make it worthwhile. So, if ya'll need something, PM me. It's coming apart.

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. (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.
