So heres the deal. I went out and bought myself an 87 comanche 2wd (my first comanche, sixth jeep). It runs like hot poop, and the trans is wiped so i bought it with the intention on doing a swap of some kind. I stumbled across a wrecked 91 XJ 4wd and thought, this is perfect. I started ripping some parts off today and it suddenly dawned on me the project I was undertaking. Mainly im here to say, HELP! I am very familiar with the HO jeeps, not so much with the renix jeeps, ive had 5 Xj's prior to this MJ, all well built (by me) and all wheeled hard (by me) so im not exactly a newby. I would like to know if anyone else has attempted a renix to HO swap using a cherokee and if so what all is needed what kind of time frame do i need to give myself to get this done and any useful information would be grately appreciated. I had it in my head that this would be a weekend job and im starting to think i was gravely mistaken. The end game for this jeep is to be an arizona backroads exploration vehicle, about five and a half inches of lift and 35's, locked and loaded.
