Default 2000 Grand Cherokee Om617 swap

Hi, i have searched everywhere to look for a Om617 swap on a grand cherokee but i only found Cherokee swaps so im making my swap very detailed so people can have some foundation and I'll be glad is im doing something wrong to point at it please, this Cherokee is in very good condition i paid a cheap amount cause it was almost throwing a rod the engine was a 4.0 2wd transmission, i bought a aw4 from a 96 Cherokee because it has the standalone controllr, another thing i noticed is that the stock transmission is a lot longer compared to the aw4 probably i will have to build a new driveshaft if the one from a Cherokee doesnt fit, im rebuilding the om617 right now, I'll be posting more pictureshttp://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk105/carlitosgy6/20140828_154550_zpsf5eprcha.jpghttp://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk105/carlitosgy6/20140825_173359_zpsof8yf1y5.jpg

easiest way I know of to do it is use the insert image button and paste your URL (http address to photo ) into it.

edit - there's another way but it's hard to describe it here. You end up putting [IMG] tags in front of the image and at the end manually.

paste the _http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk105/carlitosgy6/20140825_173359_zpsof8yf1y5.jpg

without the _ at the beginning of it into the dialog that comes up when you click on this:
