No, 99-01 alternators have a plug on them as the -98 use the bolt on harness. Most 97-98 XJ's have the same 90amp as the precious years. Get the 130amp from a ZJ. It's direct replacement after pulley swap. If you get the 136amp you will have to modify mounting bracket

I don't know if this helps but when I needed an alternator for my 2001 XJ (the pulley was locked up) I grabbed one from a 1996 that had a good pulley and just swapped the rear section that has all the plugs on it. Haven't had a single problem since
