Question front swapping 98 into 87?

Does anyone know if the transfer case, front dif, and front steering/ suspension from a 1998 Cherokee classic would fit in a 1987 Comanche sport?

Transfer case probably wont but everything else should no problem.

There were many variations in the input of the transfer case over the years, 21 vs 23 spline, short vs long etc. Its explained here https://www.novak-adapt.com/knowledg...g-input-gears/

If I were to replace the rear components of the 87 Comanche with the parts from the 98 Cherokee classic would it then all work together?
