NO. Early (80's - mid 90's) Cherokee is what you'd be looking for. Not a Grand Cherokee. Most of the Grand Cherokees have a steering shaft that has a smaller diameter joint that slips onto the upper steering column shaft, therefore will not fit. The regular Cherokees fit like charm.

The Square Cherokee's before the mid 90's switch uses the exact same Saginaw steering column as the thirdgen.
When I say ExAcT.... I mean I used parts from a spare thirdgen one to get an '87 Cherokee column back in shape.

Lots of PB blaster and a pry bar.

I've read also that some Astro intermediate shafts are different lengths than others. I pulled one today from Budget Auto Wrecking in Auburn for $25. It came out of a '98 AWD Astro van and appears to be long enough to fit without lengthening. The upper u-joint is definitely going to require re-clocking.
