SCORE!!! Just found an 89 XJ at a local yard! Got the HVAC box, whole dash, tilt column and wiper cowl for $150!!!

So 87, 88 and 89 is direct swap? Well I guess I’ll keep looking! Thanks!

I have an 89 eliminator that had a fire in the heater box which destroyed the box, dash and wiring. The most readily available stuff I can find is from a 92. Is the wiring completely different or is it a direct swap?

I guess it depends on your definition of FUN!

Greetings all! New here and just thought I’d say hello. I am a long time Jeep nut, currently have 3 1989 MJs, and a 2001 TJ and have owned several XJs and YJs over the years. I am a 47 year old A&P mechanic from the Northeast, but currently reside in Charleston, SC. I am currently working on a 1989 2.5 2wd base MJ that will become my daily driver. Have an 89 Pioneer LWB and an 89 Eliminator SWB. Both, unfortunately suffered fires in the heater box so I will be doing a 97+ swap to one of them, probably the Eliminator. The LWB Pioneer will be put on the back burner for now. Once I diesel swap my TJ, the 2.5 2WD base will become a diesel 4WD. The Eliminator will probably get the Turbo 4.0 from my TJ. Looking forward to actually corresponding with you, I’ve been lurking here for a while!
