AX15 swap into my 97 XJ

alright so today a guy offered me a free ax15 from an older Xj. i'm not too sure what year but i'm almost sure its a 23 spline. My Xj is a 97 with an auto trans,cruise control, and a nv242 selec trac tcase. i'm wondering if the ax15 will bolt right onto my 97 4.0 and if the tcase will mate to it properly as well? and how the cruise control will work. also other than the pedal assembly what other modifications will have to be made

Yes it will bolt up. One consideration is that you'll need to swap in a manual PCM, or fool the TCU into thinking the AW4 is still there.

This swap has been done many times, have you tried searching?
