Dzimm Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 I've linked one of the more detailed projects below. My 97+ build is also linked in my signature below. You have to look through the build thread section for 97+ swaps and you'll find all the info for anything on it. I believe there is info in the Write-ups section as well. As far as the rear harness, I'd recommend retaining the plug block from the rear of the XJ where all the rear harnesses plug into, this rearward is where you'll have to make some harness changes but you can plug the modified harnesses in here. You can take the XJ fuel pump harness and adapt it to work with other fuel pumps. I used a Dodge dakota tank and pump as it fits in the factory fuel tank location under the bed. I made an adapter for the wiring as the plugs are different but the fuel sender signals work with the XJ fuel gauge which is a huge plus for this setup. The taillights I just cut and extended the XJ taillight harness and modified the XJ bulb sockets to fit in the MJ taillights. I feel this is the easiest way to go about it. You could of course do it all custom but that's a lot of work compared to modifying the factory harnesses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
