wheel bearing hub assembly

[crazy4mopar]

will a wheel bearing hub assemblys from a 2000 XJ fit on a 90 xj?

It will bolt on but will cause problems. Look for a post awhile back by CheapXJ explaining the problem.

there were three different widths IIRC. The 2000 switched mid year to the TJ axle which used the thinner (by about 3/16s) hubs. If yours is thinner, the rotor will end up rubbing on the knuckle a bit. Solve this problem by ordering 1/4" wheel spacers from Summit for $14.

I bought two sets of TJ axles and unit hubs over the years (before I sold my 30). These are a great source for XJ spares.

the internet is YOUR friend:

part number MRG-2370

The OD of these is just a hair to big, but they are made from aluminum, so 5 minutes with Dr. Angle Grinder solved that. Price is right.
