Default WJ control arms on a ZJ?

Has anybody swapped WJ front control arms onto a ZJ? I know the lowers will work with some slight modification to the sleeves in the bushings, but will the uppers bolt right in? I want to replace the flimsy stamped steel arms on my ZJ with the beefier boxed arms that come on the WJ. I'm not wanting to lift my ZJ, just want some extra strength.

I think this covers both the front uppers and lowers from a WJ onto an XJ/ZJ. >->http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f11/w...ite-up-987327/

I guess I should practice what I preach.
Thanks Blue! I guess I'll be doing the swap in the near future. I wonder if the rear lowers on the WJ are the same length as the ZJ rear lowers?
