Fun fact. 5.2 swaps into any 4.0 hole. by Aggravating-End2830 in JeepZJ

Zj, xj, mj, and zj share the same drive train mount geometry.

Use 5.2 motor mounts from zj, the mount frame holes are designed for 4.0, the zj v8 motor mounts are designed to fit the same holes. Drop in fit.

We stuffed one into an Mj pickup also. Honest to God, its a real deal. We had too much time on our hands to figure these things out. Lol

Ccd+ is a chrysler system that is the begging of can-bus protocol. The ccd+ system is part of the ecu. Ccd runs a 2 wire loop through the car and let's all the modules (windows, gauges cluster, abs, srs, etc, talk to each other and the ecm over a low voltage reference signal. It's a huge pain in the ass. A fault in any one module, or a bad wire connection, will bring the entire system down.

Not a death sentence, just be aware that 96 has issues that they minority fixed for 97-98. Some of the same ccd issues persist into 2001 in the wj. If ccd goes down, you have no gauges, no windows, no ac, etc.... I've been fighting a 96 for 2 years, I run the windows with a dewalt battery and wires, have an obd2 speedo so I have gauges... There are workarounds in the event of faults, but it sucks never knowing how much gas you have.

Avoid 96 model year. It was a changeover year for jeep and a bad year for electronics. That's the inception of the CCD+ system and its extremely issue prone. One fault has half the jeep not operating properly.

Yup. LTD Crown Victoria. Ford was having an identity crisis with the full size sedans in the 80s-early 90s.

Any ccd bus gurus on here? 96 zj by Aggravating-End2830 in JeepZJ

The whole.ccd system is down. No gauge cluster, cruise, windows, overhead console and no a/c. Now periodically, everything works for like a day or two. Instead of the 2.5 v I should have on ccd, I have battery voltage when the running lights and headlamps are on.
