Default 91 Cherokee - 99 Dodge Caravan Crossover parts?

Well, this weekend I'm buying a 91 Cherokee, and tomorrow morning, I'm selling a 99 dodge caravan for scrap. Is there anything that I should strip from the Dodge that I could use on the Cherokee? Could be anything as simple as seats... Thanks for taking the time to read this.

I've honestly no idea, I just know it's the standard 3.3l dodge engine. Nothing from the suspension would be worth messing with?

I'm not sure, I could check. If so, would they be of any use? I'm a blatant newbie when it comes to jeeps, and as far as cars go, I only know things that I've had to do. (IE, if had never changed a water pump, and my vehicle's water pump went out, I'd research and then do it myself, learning as I go) Sorry for the probably blatantly stupid questions, and thanks for the replies.

I would take all bolts, washers and nuts that would come off easy and the electrical harness, can come in handy when you have to replace some bad electrical wiring with the right colour.
Bolts and nuts are cheap but when you need them it´s easier to go to your box of spare bolts and nuts and not need to go shopping for them.

I completely agree. Take down the headliner and take all wires u can get, save them. Save all bulbs too.

I'd pull all the fuses and relays. Those can get costly.
