    wj lca on an xj?

    i read somewhere recently that you can use the lower control arms off a wj on an xj if you have a lift that is over 3.5 inches. is this true and if it is would it be a direct bolt on or would there need to be some form of fabrication involved?

    vibration question

    the trans does not feel like it wants to lurch foward. i know the motor mounts are good so that is ruled out. it is also not mis fireing. i will check the exhaust tonite when i change the oil. hopefully it is just something dumb like that.
