non ABS is available in both 8.25 and D35. X2

worse case on ABS take it out/disable it. If the platform was worth the purchase price.

My 97 came stock with ABS and a D35 it was swapped for a 8.25 with out ABS.

Opinions, are just that, I have had a 92, 93, 97 XJ's. I currently have a different 97 and a 2000 XJ. My Opinion anything after 99 is SHYTE. Hindsight being a biotch I would find a 2 door, 5 speed as for the Year I like the newer grills but it's all in what ya want.

just my thoughts.

I would love a 2 door 5 speed. But id DD it and take care of it. I like both body styles. Id like a 98 or 99 for my next cherokee just to try one out.

Thanks for your input guys. I appreciate it. Guess I'll broaden my search for the components I want instead of limiting it to model year.
