1 vote for yes, (not that I know much about the 4.0 jeep motors), but I don't think much changed in those years.

I believe it will work, but the 96-up 4.0 head does not flow as well or have a spot for your temp gauge sender.
The 93 head on the 96 block may be the solution for you there.
Benefits of the 96- up block are stronger mount castings & lighter block strengthened with a main cap girdle.
