was wondering if converting 2wd cherokee into a 4x4 is this possible?

If you're up for the swap its possible, just find a 4 wheel from any picapart that matches yours and go to town with everything from front to transfer case and you should be good.
Also, don't forget the driveshafts for both front and rear if you can find any thats still good, here in vegas they use a forklift and bend the crap out of the driveshafts

i got a 1991 4x4 that im ending up junking cause parking light just stay on cant figure out so

Your going to need a bit of work to make it happen. new front axle, front driveshaft, t-case, tranny, rear driveshaft, and all th linkage and shifter bezel for the interior ad any of the odds and sods to connect everything together.

Your junking it because the parking light is staying on??

And as stated above your going to need a complete drive train out of a 4x4, make sure to check that its in good condition and that all the components are there, itd suck to go home and find out that your missing something major.

I think he is saying that he is going to use the 4x4 91 that he has for his parts truck to convert the two wheel drive to four wheel.
Like I said(Ithink)

Ahh, then its my confusion because if someone were to junk an xj because of a light being on ill take it off there hands lol

rednekwizard

Right, me too, I could use a transplant for my 86

You can keep the engine if i can have the axles. lol, the 2.8 really that bad i take it?

rednekwizard

I still can't figure out why they would put that junk in a jeep, it only gets 115 hp factory and there really isn't much you can do to make any more
it is really weak and I don't care for carbs, at least not on my jeep, deal...I do like the t-case and axles in mine, just not the motor trans combo.
I think mine has the torqueflight trans also, would rather have a tuned port 350 and 700R4 or 400 turbo

They put the torqueflight's in XJ's then with the 2.8?? the last time i owned something with a torque flight was my 78 LRE, awsome transmission...115? A damn neon engine makes more hp then that

rednekwizard

yup, my girlfriends neon would smoke my jeep
