onlyinajeep726 Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 Instead on copying, pasting and reformatting everything, here's a link the craigslist ad I posted looking for parts: WTB/WTT: Jeep Cherokee XJ/Comanche MJ parts - $1 (Clayton, NC)
AeroNautical Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 Hmm, I have a few front driveshafts laying around the garage, I'll measure em out to see if they might work for ya, one of em I know is from an AX-15 MJ (but that ones MINE, haha). As for seats, I'm in the same boat right now.
Kkilmer87 Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 I know where there's two mint gray buckets in connecticut but guy wants 300$ for them lol

They better be threaded with gold fiber and embedded with diamonds for that kind of mula... lol
AeroNautical Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 Alright, I measured them all out. I have one that measures 31" compressed, 34" extended from u-joint eye to eye. I've got another that measures 25 1/2" compressed, 28 1/2 extended eye to eye (obviously won't work, I think it's from a wrangler). I measured out my AX-15 shaft from an MJ and it measures 30" compressed. I believe if you have any kind of lift, the extra inch won't make a difference, but I'm not sure. Let me know what you think:
onlyinajeep726 Posted December 3, 2013 Author Posted December 3, 2013 I have one that is 31" compressed... It's from my donor XJ that had the AW4. I've already attempted to use it but it's too long. Just for comparison, the same length drive shaft is on my XJ with 4 inches of lift and it's barely extended out any further than the stock spot. I also have the skinnier one like you have at the bottom of your picture and that was the MJ's original one from the 2.5L/AX4 combo. Thanks for trying though. My search continues on that front.
AeroNautical Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 Damn, I just saw a 4wd 2 door XJ with a pukey get scrapped not too long ago, didn't think about it but should have grabbed the front shaft, same length as the ax15 combo.
