Love the video! I have also taken to wrenching Jeeps in retirement. One huge suggestion for you is to ditch the factory linkage bracket for the transfer case. Azzy's and other knock off companies make a great linkage system that bolts on the the trans/TC so it is much more stable, etc.
Im new to az, ive been here 5 yrs now. Never heard of your town before. Im in wellton a small farming town east of yuma on the interstate 8. If you need any advice on the conversion just reach out and if I know the answer I will surely let you know. Good luck on it and shoot me some pics of it when its done. Cheers and keep on jeeping.
Your work is beautiful. I'm sloppy. End up getting frustrated sometimes so I walk away and forget what's disconnected. I'm so brand new to the mechanic's world. But I do all the work on my XJ. Gotta send you a picture. Mine is quite unique.
Where are you at in Arizona? Im in Phoenix. I have had the 12 bolt in the chevelle rebuild 3 times by two shops and the gears still whine. I dont blame the shops as much as I blame Yukon for their crap quality these days. A lot of people have had trouble with their gears lately. I might bring my Chevelle to you for a ring and pinion swap.
@@missingdigitgarage8644 they were both very reputable shops in Phoenix. I've found many other people that have the same exact problem as I do and the common denominator is Yukon.
BRO HOW DID YOU BY PASS THE ANTI THEFT SYSTEM?!?!? MY 1998 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO 4.0 V6 STARTS SOME TIMES THEN IT DOESN'T HELLP ANYONE?!?! Ive tried everything ive seen on UA-cam Nothing has Worked!
@@kevinmakelane123 Cherokees need to be slapped around. They get a little outta line sometimes. I will continue to do it the way I do it. I dont have time to dilly dally with strategies. Thanks for watching though.

Ive seen that linkage, it looks like it would work nice.
Nice work and video
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it.

Im in wellton just east of yuma. I wonder what their paint pattern looked like.

Im east of yuma 25mi in a town called wellton
Next time i do a 12 bolt i will go with a crush sleeve delete. its a bitch crushing those things. a true shoulder destroyer
Hope that thumb healed up! That was a (Un)lucky shot!
It got me good. All healed up now.
Want to do it again? I have one and I need to put my new 4x4 trans in it. It’s already axle swapped. Pm me if you’d like to help?
@@CalebOutdoors22 I just noticed your comment, yes I can do the conversion if you need it done still
Do I need to change the transmission on my Cherokee XJ 4x2?
That is how I did it. I changed the transmission
Mose definitely only way
Where are you from

I didnt bypass nothing.
The ZJ has more bells and whistles. The XJ is much simpler. Good luck with soultion, I hope you get her running.
research installing a computer from a 4x4 zj. that may be the problem. I dont know for sure, but it could have something to do with it
He lost his finger doing his last 4 wheel drive conversion
Great video however it seems like you are a very reckless worker. You tend to use brute force or brawn over strategy. Just try to be extra carecul
