Default Thoughts/help/advice??? :)

Found this in the local junkyard. Its a 2000 Grand with a blown motor (4.0) auto tranny, two position t-cas (?242??) and a much less rusty Dana 30. Could you guys please look at the pics and tell me what I should grab? Is the Dana 30/brakes and better than what I have with my 96 XJ donor axle? The calipers look different? Would the auto tranny bolt right in my 01 XJ? Any other parts that I should grab while I'm at it??? Help!

The tranny is an RE or RFE and is by no means a bolt on, neither is the NP247 TC. As for the d30, I dunno.. I could be wrong.. Wait for more responses/ search search search!

steering will be tougher than whats on your XJ, its just gonna be a PITA getting it safely supported with enough room to get to it

Thanks guys... Didn't realize the AW4 died out in the grand but kept going in the XJ. As for getting the axle/steering stuff, the shop will pick it up with a forklift and I can get at it easy enough. I still can't find much intel on the front axle assembly and brakes and if it is any kind of an upgrade... Still looking though.
