Sorry if this is the wrong place for this. My first time here. Will 16" rims from a 04 Liberty fit my 01 cherokee? Saw them cheap with new tires. Thanks, meanwhile ill do some searching. Ill get the hang of this. Im building up the old XJ for my wife. She loves it. Needs a bit of work though. Thanks

Will a wj front axle bolt into my 96 xj? I've found one I can get for free. It already has cross over steering. I was thinking it would be a nice upgrade. I know the lug patters different but it comes with wheels.

Straight 6? It doesn't. You have a Renix motor, my friend.

It's fuel injected. There are a few sensors to worry about, but I haven't needed to learn them yet. Mine was doing that recently for a couple weeks, and then I drowned it while offroading. Once it dried off and cooled down, that problem was gone
Mine's also an 88, by the way.
