SOLD.

1989 Jeep Cherokee XJ 2 door flat black. 4.0 Renix engine w/ about 220,000 miles. 4x4, 5spd Peugeot BA 10/5 transmission. 4.5" rustys lift. 33" tires (5). Transfer case drop. Custom front bumper w/ XRC-8 winch. Chrysler 8.25 rear axle. Dana 30 front axle. (Both w/ 3.55 gears) JKS quick...

Still have the 231 case with crown SYE?

So I just recently swapped out my dana 35 for an 8.25, everything is all hooked up,the swap went fine. But on the passenger side rear leaf there's a gap in between the top and second to top leaf. Any ideas of why this would happen? And how I can fix it? Any help at all would be great, thanks.

I'm going to be doing this swap tomorrow, anything I else I should replace while I''m working on it?

Thanks for all the advice thus far guys. I was also wondering about painting and rust proofing the axles before droppin them on. How would I go about doing this? What kind of paint etc?

Next week I'll be swapping my front and rear axles. Front with another dana 30 and rear with a 8.25 . Are there any write ups on how to do this? Any advice on how to make this process go smoothly? Any help at all would be great. Thanks

If I purchase this will I have to purchase a custom driveshaft? I have an '89 manual tranny, np231 transfer case, and a dana 35 rear. I'm trying to save as much as I can in the process.

Sorry to hi-jack but what long arm kit did you use with the Rusty's 4.5" ?

I just need to know where the components are for this and i'll be good to go

It's a 1989. By chance do you know of any diagrams that I can reference for this?

Awesome! That's the answer I was lookin' for. Thanks for the help! Can't wait to get this done! Again, thanks!

Well, I have a few manuals and none of them show anything about the A/C system and it's components so I don't know what to look for. Does anyone have a diagram or something of the sort I can take a look at? Thanks!

So the previous owner used my rig for strictly off road purposes and it currently doesn't have A/C or heat. He said when I purchased it that he had removed the condenser. To regain A/C do I only have to replace the condenser and it will work again? I don't know much about A/C at all, so this is...

Well, I have the Peugeot BA 10/5 tranny and a np231 transfer case and will have an 8.25 rear axle soon.. not sure if that makes any difference. What will work with this setup? (Driveshaft wise, when I get an SYE or HnT)
