    Manual trans in a 97 zj?

    Can't be done between a 94 and a 97.. looked into it for a 97 xj and it turns out in 97 all the engine wiring and computers changed along with the body styling and on automatically the trans is electronicaly controlled.

    yoke on the rear axle

    Bolts and straps? So the ujoint that connects the axle to the driveshaft? Front or rear axle? I would definately check your pinion angle. May be off pretty bad and when it extends or compresses gets bad enough the make the joint bind up and break. It happened to us on a 75 k5 blazer

    Trans swap in 97 zj

    I looked into an auto to manual switch for a 97 xj a few months back. I know for an xj its possible but gets very expensive cause the newer transmissions are computer controlled and its a whole new harness and computer.. the older won't fit the newer unfortunately. It will throw engine codes and...
