Welcome to CF.
If they both have the 4.0L I6 then everything will fit. Unless the ZJ has the AW4 trans you'll need to change the TCM and some of the wiring to make it work. You'll also need the rear drive shaft as it's shorter on a 4WD.
You'll need other parts like the t-case shifter, linkage, bezel, etc. but you probably know that.

The AW4 was used in early production 1993 Grand Cherokees and then switch to the 42RE mid year.

get everything from an xj donor vehicle. the zj has low pinion front axle and the crappy 42re tranny. also the shift lever and whatnot is a little different.
easier to just get xj parts.
