Default Zj upgrades for Xj?

Iv searched this and saw the junkyard upgrades but theres too many to read. Im getting a free zj for parts idk if its a straight 6 or v8 or if its 4wd but im pretty sure it is a 4.0 4wd. Is there any parts i can slap on my 95 4.0 4wd from it for better "performance"? Thanks

If it was a V8 ZJ, the tie rod ends are a decent upgrade. If it was a 5.9L you could slap the front coils on for a little bit of a lift. Other than those 2, thats all the upgrades I know about. Whats wrong with the ZJ if you dont mind me asking.

The seats off the ZJ on the front I read are a direct fit and the rears can also fit with minor adjustment to it. Hmmm I'm sure other items could be used too like the roe rod ends as mentioned above.

get the rear disc brakes and swap them on your rear end, will work for a 35 or a 8.25 but the 8.25 is a little more work
