I know it sounds funny but that's what I'm doing. I own a 1993 Cherokee country with a rusted out tub. I started to fix sheet metal that was caused by a leaky heater core. But I came to the conclusion that it was too far gone. So I bought a 1998 Cherokee with a 4 cyl. and with a 5 speed ax5 that was shot also. The motor through a rod through the block. So I'm putting the drive train from the 1993 into the 1998. Oh, the 98 only costed my $400 bones! Wow this is a lot of work! But it's going, I'll keep adding pics as I go. Wish me luck!

 

Going to be a fun project!!! And it has 4.10 gearing

 

swap the seats out, do a front clip swap, door swap rear hitch swap and everything. that would be b.a.

 

I'm keeping the 98. It's getting a heart transplant! I'm also putting the old dash in the 98. So whenever some one sees it they'll be like WTF?

 

i like the newer dashes wayyy better than the old ones, but i like your idea of swapping them just for ***** and giggles.

i see both of the xjs are red, but what color are the interiors in both?

 

Fun little project for ya. It'll be worth it in the end.

 

well the dash was more of a wireing concern. I did not for see that i had to swap the fuel system too PITA! Got it started today! pics to follow!!!

 

the 1993 is tan, and the 1998 is grey

 

I'm sure its more than you planned but your still moving ahead so you got to be pretty determined at this point looking forward to pics
