[QUOTE="Zjman, post: 743955, member: 9835"] I’d wheel a zj but nothing wrong with a xj I’d try to find a 93-96 zj. The early ones have ujoint axles up front that are the 5-760’s ujoints, go to scrap yard get a 8.8 and a xj 30 front which is a direct swap. Get a Artec swap truss for 8.8 and get a sleeve kit for the 30. If ya afford it get a truss for it, Go to iron rock Offroad and pretty much buy everything, they have great products and are experts in zj’s. The auto in a zj is fine, just manually shift it, mine is still going strong after 7 years and whatever one ya chose get the weld on tabs for ur axles shafts, they make a stock axle almost as strong as chromos.
