which generation liberty? the NEW one with lights like a commander? or the round light first gen? I was looking into putting a TJ front on a XJ but gave up after a few measurements..., I have seen a xj with commander lights

Also what will work on a Cherokee from a liberty parts wise. Kinda how you can swap the TRE for a ZJ onto an XJ? I notice the liberty already has a SYE, can that be used with an XJ?

Someone was selling injectors from a Liberty saying they would fit just need the electrical connector.

Better then 703 injector! I think that was the thread.

Four hole ev14 injectors from 3.7 Chyrsler. Pre 1998 4.0, swap out connectors or run injector adapters, post 1999 4.0, plug and play.

In case you lose yours in the woods, you can even use the schrader valve cap on the fuel rail. Both are 7/16-14 threads.

I am sure that you could pull the horn and find a way to mount and wire it to a Cherokee.

Wheels? Anyone know the bolt pattern and offset?
