Are any of the parts of a fullsize jeep direct bolt-ons for a 1990 xj? There is one that is really "built" down the street from me just sitting and has been there for years. I dont have much welding ablility so would it be worth contacting the owner? I am interested in the axles and bumpers.

What is a "fullsize" Jeep? A Grand Cherokee or Wrangler or ?

A grand wagoneer, older cherokee, and J-10 pick-ups were the full sized jeeps. I think the axels can be swaped, though the full sized jeeps used leaf springs front and rear. Thoes jeeps are totally different beasts.

Oh, yeah. The golden oldies. 360 cubes and I believe Dana 44's. Well, it's a safe bet that the bumpers wouldn't fit. They weren't worth shit anyway (lightweight). And you'd need a wider trail through the woods.

IIRC, the front axles are passenger side drops.

Thanks, this thing has a pre-runner bumper, definitely strong. So it is pretty much a waste of time to try and get the jeep for parts, right.
