Question's on several subjects
Ok here goes...I have a stock 98XJ that I wanna upgrade. I have found a 93XJ with a blown motor. The good about it is it comes with quite a few accessories here is a list.
Roof rack (aluminum/powder coated
4KC day lighters
Hi lift jack
4"+ lift (not sure how to tell exactly how high) supposed to be a long arm with discos.
4 new bfg mud terrains 32x11.50(300mi on them)
CB with 2 antennas
Has a 8.8 rear end
2 new skyjacker shocks nib
Rock skids.
My questions are will the lift fit my 98 and do the leafs from the 8.8 fit my stock 8.25? I can get a amazing deal in This jeep just curious if the parts are gonna fit.

Well typically it would be easier but my jeep is in a heck of a lot better shape than the 93. How much of an upgrade is it to swap from the 8.25 to ford? Also what would you guys say is a good price for the 93

as for the 8.8 if its allready in just disconnect it leafs and all and bolt it right in but like i said before make shure your front has the same gears. or just do the leafs on your stock axle and save the 8.8 and upgrade later but dont get rid of the 8.8 if its allready converted to fit a cherokee
If the 8.8 has the correct pinion angles you will save yourself a lot of pain by swapping. At a 4 inch lift your Chrysler will need big shims. If the last guy did it right, his Transfer case may also have a Slip Yolk Eliminator kit installed, in which case I'd swap that too.
If the lift is a long arm kit, then the mounts for the long arms are probably welded on. That means you might need to get new ones as you stand a good chance of not being able to re-use those.
As many have said, you will have to swap the front axle too if the gear ratio in the back is off.
My want to swap front axle items anyway like the track bar.
