86 mj 2wd to 4wd conversion


Recommended Posts

Hey y'all I picked up a 86 mj a few weeks back and after having to partially rebuild the engine and swapping out the bumpers I'm looking to swap it from 2wd to 4wd. I went to Carlisle spring swap meet and picked up a spare 2.5l engine and the front and rear axle out of a 85 xj along with the transfer case. It's it usable at all for what I'm trying to do or did I just waste my time and money? My mj has a 2.5l with a 4spd .

you'll still need a 4wd transmission from behind a 2.5/2.8. and the rear axle will need the perches moved to the proper location.  gearing is important too, so verify what you bought before you install them.  hopefully you got some 4.10s :thumbsup:
