The only time you need to change the sending units is with a 96 or older... with the newer ones they are the same and will work either way...

Thanks man.

An angle grinder, and a drill. Different tailcone and output yolk. Super easy. What year is your rig?

You need the seal and flange kit. You can find your own front drive shaft to use in the rear. Install the hack-n-tap, measure, go the the JY and pick one.

If you go to this site:

http://ironrockoffroad.com/Merchant2...egory_Code=XDT

It shows you what you need. What year is your XJ?

The directions are here:

Welcome Greenwire, nice XJ! I've got some family in Centerville and my little sisters photography studio is on Kent Island so I get out there from time to time. I also do a lot of bass fishing at Tuckahoe

Tom Woods makes a SYE kit for a NP242. Pricey as hell due the core charge ($400.00), but available nonetheless.
