Which parts are you looking for specifically? Grand Cherokee items are generally very different and will need custom work to make them fit.

 

 

P.S. Punctuation marks are totally free. :thumbsup:

Please understand the the 97 swap is not a easy thing to do. You will need to address the wiring (interior, engine, taillights), fuel system, seat brackets, door strikers, firewall, steering column, brake lines, parking brake lever, and a bunch of other nick nack stuff.

just cosmetic stuff interior pieces.front clip maybe wheels stuff like that

Keep in mind that the electrical stuff changed over the years. The front clip will bolt on if you have two good fenders in the "new" clip. The profile at the top corner of the front fenders changed in '97, so just trying to put the new header and grille on with the old fenders requires some customizing. Also, making the '97 side marker lights work will require some wiring modifications.

 

As to the interior -- your 90 has a mechanical speedometer. The '97+ Cherokees are have electric speedometers, and the polarity of some of the gauges has been reversed (IIRC, specifically the fuel gauge). You can bolt a '97 dashboard into a 90 chassis, but making it work is going to require getting into the interior wiring. The seat pedestals for the 97+ XJ are different from the MJ and different from the early XJs. You can't even bolt the 97 seats into an MJ without custom fabricating seat pedestals.
