hello all, Im a newbie to the forum with a few questions. I have two Jeeps, A 97 grand cherokee Laredo with a good body anda tired old 4.0l, trans, and transfer case with 287k on clock. I aslo have a 97 cherokee sport with a bad body beyond repair but the 4.0L trans and t-case are good. My question is... If I pull the motor, trans and t-case out of the laredo can i swap the good gear from the sport into the laredo and have a DIRECT bolt in procedure? this will NOT be used on road, just a toy for my cabin. My main concern is wiring, is it plug and play or nightmare?

 

Post this on the "ask question" thread and you will get alot of help there.

 

This would be considered a ZJ build but I am using parts from a XJ.

 

The engine will work, the XJ transmission will not, the transfercase will.

 

ok so whats up with the trans? What do i need to make it work?

 

The XJ transmission is completely different and all of the electrical is different, it's more of a headache than it is worth trying to make the AW4 work in a ZJ.

 

ok, thank you much bustedback
