I just acquired a 99 XJ 4x4 SE. The only option it has is power mirrors, and although I'm cool with roll up windows, I'm one of those people that really needs/wants a tilt steering column.
I did a search and could not find any info on swapping from a fixed to tilt column. Basically I'd like to know what I'd be getting myself into and the best way to go about it. I do all my own work, short of building motors and rebuilding trannys, etc. so I'm not scared of a challenge.
I'm also interested in installing factory cruise control, so I figured while I'm doing a column swap, I may as well get a steering wheel with the controls attached to the column to get a start on that also.
Any advice to these jobs or my new (to me) Jeep in general is appreciated.
