Well I bought the bracket. I'll make it work if its not the right one.

You would think. Mine is v-belt. Fuel injected 2.5L. I think its an early 86. I think I may have found the solution. Can anybody confirm this is the right one? Mine right now is not even close to this, but I know its wrong. http://cgi.ebay.com/AMC-2-5-ENGINE-ALTE ... dZViewItem

I am having some issues with my 86's v-belt system. My alternator is crooked and the mounting looks haggard. Can somebody show me a picture or a link where I can see how the alternator is supposed to be mounted? The brackets on mine do not look stock. No A/C. No power steering. Its got the GM style alternator.

FYI i never found any. I just figured it out on my own.. Still runs good.

PM me some info about the ZJ and Ill send you some info on my MJ, not sure the value as I have done a lot of work to it. Its the one in my little profile picture there. Just had the bed line-x'd about 6 months ago..

Still lookin? I might be interested in a trade..

Sorry i was thinking 97+ XJ stuff... Which does indeed mount the same. I swapped out power seats for manual ones in my XJ a while ago..

i havent, but it would be the same process as manual seats. they mount the same. you would just need to run a power and ground wire to get power to the plug on the power seat. put it on a relay and it should work good.

90-95 Ford Taurus is a good swap.. http://www.jeephorizons.com/tech/fan/

yessiirrrrr. I'm pretty sure he was talking about the roll bar back then... but yup trucks on CL now.. I'm not a real "motivated" seller, we'll see how it goes.

Jeremy Pyron Iv got an 86 MJ (kinda, its more like an XMJ now), and I got a little 97 XJ Live in Marietta, GA work in Atlanta. Going back to school in August for my Masters.

Agree. The bumper is "optional" and you can just swap the clip and leave your original bumper. I just wanted to finished off the "look" of the 97+ front end. Heck i have even seen old 87-96 Bumpers on 97-01 Cherokees. To use your original flare you would need to keep your old fender mounting clips. 97-01 plastic flares "clip" on to a different style of mounts. EDIT: found pic of old bumper, new cherokee..

here's mine i just got finished and painted. I picked up a 97 XJ with low compression for $600, parted out a ton of stuff and got all my money back, and still had all my front end parts, seats, console, etc. But I did spluge on the $30 chrome set-up off ebay 1986 hood matched perfect. I replaced the fenders, bumpers, bumper caps, and header panel/lights.

Hey nice rear bumper. :brows: Kinda reminds me of mine. I did the same EXACT process. I welded mine, it was the easiest solution. Worked for me. :thumbsup:

Ya what he said, and i don't have an Ad on CL. :dunno:
