Grand Cherokee frame vs Wrangler frame help

I have a 2000 Wrangler with a plow set-up on it, the spefic plow manufacturer that Im using does not list a lower frame for a Cherokee or Grand Cherokee. Alot of times this is only due to weight restrictions on vehicles.
Does anyone know of, or have a link, where I can find out how close these frames would be? I have come across a 2000 Grand that would be a steal for me to pick up and the plow is a poly so with a set of timbrens Im not worried about the weight.
Are they close enough that I might be able to have someone fab something together with my current frame.
Thanks

cherokees and grand cherokees are unibodies so there is no true frame. they are not very well suited for plowing.

This specific application was actually designed for an s-10 Blazer before I mounted it on my current jeep. I figured if that can take it, the Grand Cherokee should be able to hold up. It is more or less a homeowner version not for commercial use.
