I'm looking to swap in ZJ seats into my '93. If I'm understanding correctly, early ZJ seats (model year '93 and '94) would bolt up to the '94 and earlier seat bases, while newer will need to be adapted? Can '95+ ZJ seat bases be adapted to fit the '94 and earlier XJ? I'm sure finding early ZJ...

I just checked again, and as soon as get the photos off my phone I'll upload them. Now I'm not sure if its an 8.25 or D35... The diff cover looks like a 8.25, but then there are some photos of D35s with that same type of cover. I'm starting to think it is indeed a D35 based on the lack of an...

For starters my XJ is a 1993 Sport, 5 spd and ABS with a D30 up front and a 8.25 in the rear. Pretty sure it has the upcountry package as it came with all the factory skids, a limited slip in the rear. I have never measured the lift, but it seems to be all factory original despite 250K +/-...

This is something I've been thinking about for my '93 XJ. My steering box is leaking at the pitman arm, and I've been thinking about swapping in a Durango box ('98-'99 are the years to go for from what I've read) Seems to be a lot of conflicting info on these... From my research, pros of the...

I'm going to start with a flush, I don't like throwing parts at a problem. if my radiator is clogged up, there is a very high chance that the rest of the system is clogged up too. I've only had this XJ for a few months now, and it came to me with 214k already. I'll probably grab the junkyard...

Thank you, I figured there was more to that temp switch when it threw the CEL. I'm running dual electric fans because I rearranged my accessory layout with an AC delete (wasn't working) and moved the alternator up with a RHD bracket which eliminated the mechanical fan. I also appreciate the...

Budget is tight right now. Rad and fan from my local yard won't be more than $40. I'd love to get a quality radiator down the road, but I'm making due for now. Just need to keep it on the road through this hot weather.

I'm running the 160F thermostat because I still need to daily drive the XJ while I troubleshoot. I started going down this rabbit hole when the XJ almost overheated twice at Idle in 80f weather (drivethru) with a 195F thermostat. I don't mind going back to a 195F thermostat once I solve the...

I'm running dual E-fans on mt '93 XJ (4.0l, 5spd, mostly stock) and I have a lower temp thermostat installed. Currently its a 160f, but I will be going to a 180f once the cooling system is all sorted out. I would like to put my e-fans on a temp switch instead of the current manual switch, and I...

I just finished setting up a Taurus fan dual e-fan set up. So far, not impressed, I felt that the airflow from my '95-'96 8-blade XJ aux fan is greater than the taurus fan.. I used Ehalls excellent write-up as the basis of my build, but I did not follow it 100% (might be why?)...

I've been working through some overheating issues myself lately, with all the high temps we've been getting in southern CO. I have done the following and its helped somewhat: New 160f high flow thermostat (for now, planning to put in a 180f soon as the system is sorted) - this has been the...

Got my answer, they are compatible. Guess the next step will be making a bracket.

I've relocated the alternator in my '93 XJ to where the AC compressor is usually situated using a RHD alt bracket. Ive been scouring the junk yards for a mopar compressor that I can make work mounted under the alternator. I think I've found one. Looks like a '99+ Grand Cherokee w/ 4.0l had...

One of the local yards does have a '96 XJ with 3.55 axles. I was thinking about getting those, but it'll depend on how much they want for them. I don't want to spend a lot of money on axles when they will just be replaced with the D44s with 4.10 gears off the JK.

I found a couple NP242s in one of my local yards, going to go back and pull one tomorrow. They have a NP242D there that is already pulled, looks like a newer Durango. Would this work? They also have some NP242s in a couple '02 Jeep liberties, as well as a couple older grand cherokees, will...

I've been trying to do some research, but I think I'm getting confused. Vehicle: 1993 XJ, 4.0L, AX15 with a NP231J. I'm looking to go swap to a NP242 despite it being a weaker T-case for the Full-Time 4 Hi option for winter commuting. The XJ preformed well last winter in snowy driving, but...

Thank you all for the advice! I am going to hold off on any lifts for now. The reason for the low budget, is the ultimate plan is to swap in a set of D44s (4.10) off my wife's JK Rubicon when that gets upgraded to D60s. I think it'll be better to just replace worn components for now and focus...

I will have to look into trimming the fenders then. I do not want to go up to 4.5" of lift as that is where it starts to really mess with steering geometries and that is expensive to correct from what I've found. Additionally that raises the center of mass (as does a 3" lift naturally) and...

I guess this is another lift thread, but I have a few questions, and am hoping for some answers. I am looking to lift my 1993 XJ to run 33s (on 15" rims). How much lift would I need to achieve this without having to trim my fenders? Can anyone recommend a good, complete, kit for hopefully under...

Yes you're right, I meant pressure plate... Any good vendor recommendations? I used to use Rock Auto, but they will not ship to CO over sales tax complications..
