    My son and I are about to embark on an extensive ZJ refresh. The plan is to have it done by his 16th in November. You just earned a new sub.

    I did this on a 98 , had a donor jeep that was rolled . Added 2" blocks and 31x10.50 tires .all the plugs were there ,all the bolt holes were there. The only thing I had to cut and modify was mounting lights and speakers.

    great video. why would you need to regear the front axle if you don't get them as a set?

    Nice video! I have the 93' Jeep Grand CherokeeLaredo I6 4.0 with the select trac/242 and 42RE. How can I tell or is mine a true 4×4 application? Thx so muuch?

      Hey Todd thx for watching more of my videos. I'm a little confused on exactly what you are asking. I think you are asking how can I tell if my ZJ was a factory 4x4? If that's the case the chances of someone doing the conversation to an early ZJ is rare so I'd say it probably is right away, however there will be other signs like the factory 4wd indicator under the radio and the VIN number

    Hi there, so Im here since I have a 95 rear wheel drive Cherokee and Im planning on making her 4 wheel drive... this is my current parts list that your video helped me assemble: Front Axle, Transmission transfer case combo, both front and rear axles, maybe tie rods and ends, track bar, front and rear drive shafts, mount for 4x4 selector, 4x4 lever, 4x4 window thingy, an NOVAC unit. Does that all seem right? Im planning on attempting it during the fall so it cools off a bit up here.

      Take the retainer out of the plug and I have found that picks are the best to release the very tiny button that holds them in the plug.

    Does the 2wd have a front axle?

    • @BigOnes1993
      @BigOnes1993 Рік тому

      It does but it's a beam axle with no pumpkin (gears).
