Wagoneer donor vehicles

Is there an existing list of donor vehicles for a Wagoneer?
For example I know the GC seats will fit and there are parts from the J10 but what about the new 4door wranglers? Are the dimensions similar enough to swap out the dash, seats, etc?
What about the 2000-2004 Durangos?

Anything is a donor vehicle with a welder.

This might be worth looking at.

When I put an XJ seats in a Wagon it set to high and there wasn't much room between the seat and steering wheel.
Not sure if the GC is any different.

Yes, the interior deminsions are the same. The dash, seats, door panels, some trim etc all change.

So the 4door Wranglers will work or were you referring to the 2002-2004 Durango?

Heres everything I've encountered
Seats YJ/Cj , late 2000-2004 Dodge Dakota/ Durango and pre 2006 pt cruiser are bolt in without welding
Heater blower: 1985 k10 blower with 1989 buick skylark wheel
Weatherstripping:
Outer window wipes: ZJ Grand cherokee inner wipes. These require a bit of trimming and the original wipes with rubber removed
Door seals: early 2000s ford explorer 2 door
Tailgate side channels: early 2000s ford explorer front door side channels
Direct fit parts from XJ cherokee:
Charcoal canister (early xj only)

- I have a charcoal canister from a ZJ.
- For the 1979 only interior dome light, the plastic light cover from 69-81 GM Cars (GM Part # 8780507)
- For the parking brake equalizer piece of bent metal: 1960-1981 GM (GM part numbers 6256437 and 1497525)
- For the earlier style manual mirrors, Ford Part # C5AZ-17696F (65-69 Ford cars)
- I've seen via an earlier write up, that for the water dam seal that sits on the body itself above the doors (not on the pinch weld), a 2000-2004ish Ford Windstar will work.
- Fuse Block Connectors for 64-72ish Chevelle. I got mine here:

- Heater blower resistor from a YJ.
