OllllllllO Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Does anyone know what steering columns will work on my 87 MJ? It is a 4.0 l6 if it makes a difference Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeep Driver Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 84 to 95 XJ and all MJs are the same. Variations will be column shift or floor shift, tilt or non-tilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minuit Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 '84-'94 XJ and MJ. A minor change came in '91 when the ignition cylinder changed to a Chrysler version that is held into the upper housing with a spring loaded latch rather than being held by a screw. Manual transmission columns will have a release lever next to the ignition cylinder. Automatic floor shift columns have a park lock mechanism that expects to be hooked up to a cable coming from the shifter mechanism. If you'd like intermittent wipers or tilt (and don't have them already), now's the perfect chance to upgrade. Make sure the break-away brackets about halfway down are not broken loose - this would indicate either rough handling or the vehicle having been in a severe accident. Make sure the donor vehicle has not been in a significant collision. These columns have a collapsible center shaft that will break in the event of a wreck.
