The following pic will help explain it. The axle in the foreground is a 2WD dummy axle.

Quick question in regards to that picture. If thats a xj dummy axle which knuckles are on it? I ask because i see it has cross over steering and the way they mounted the steering stabilizer/damper is lower than stock and i need mine that low on my 2wd mj

I think it's from a WJ, but it was only for an example of a dummy axle.

When idling my engine will sometime tend to drop down to lower rpms and want to stall out. It will become better when I get above 20mph though. Now I've heard that the fix is probably to clean the iac but also heard that the cat could be causing it to do this if it is bad. What do you think?

Cleaning the IAC, TPS, and TB is a really simple procedure that will only cost you some cleaning fluid. Do a search on here for that subject and give it a go! Might as well

I have a 1994 Jeep Cherokee and I need a driver's seat. I've looked everywhere for one and cannot find one anywhere. So I was wondering if any other Jeep models had a seat that would be compatable. It will be my daily driver so I really need to get one. I will greatly appreciate any help. Thanks

you can't find a cherokee in a junkyard? I call BS lol.

Grand Cherokee (ZJ) seats work but you have to swap/modify the brackets

I think the grand Cherokee seats will bolt right in and they are very comfortable. I'm not sure about the years though. Do some searching and you'll probably find it

I have a 1995 xj country and my driverside door is trashed I found a nice 2000 xj in the junkyard are the doors interchangable. I know the front ends are not the same but the doors look the same. I also need the radiator and the autozone website had the same part numbers for for both years.

If urs have the second small window in the front then from what i understand the newer ones wont be bolt on i believe the latch and striker are located different but its not a hard swap. If do grab both and you'll gain full windows
