Yeah, ZJ 242's can be tough to find locally at times.
If for some reason you miss this you can use an XJ 242.. but you'll need to strip down both cases to swap the input gears.

Six nuts hold it to the transmission, two drive shafts, a vent hose, a couple of electrical connectors, and the linkage. The hardest part is the top nuts that hold the TC to the tranny.

Looks like I'm going to have to keep searching for a tc. He sold it this morning. The guy that bought it was happier then a pig in well u know.
