Default 97+ dash swap????

is it possible to swap a 97+ dash into a older jeep cherokee? im talking the whole dash everything from door to door. would it fit? has anybody tried this. i have searched the forum and had no luck. what would it take to make if fit?im not worried about air bags and stuff like that i just want to know if everything else will fit. if not has anybody found like a replacement dash cap or something better then the cloth covers?

Should swap right over. A few members on here have done it.
