Snowbird (SD & FL) adding another vehicle that will need to be stored for winter (5 months in SD).. Looks like $600 (5 months) would cover a storage unit big enough, leaning that way... But for under $200 it looks like I might get a couple years out of a cover. Anyone found a cover for their...

Okay... I've read the other threads, but not found the information I need. I have a 97 TJ which I had some mods done to when I bought it in 2016.. Among them is a 3" lift kit, wheels from a JK, new winch, bumpers, etc etc. Here's the 'Old Grey Mare' as she was a month before I left her at...

My beloved 97 originally had a 2.5 in it. Prior to me buying it, a Jeep shop swapped the 2.5 out with a 4.0.... I was told it was a 01 or 02 motor. So now the oil pan (see photo) needs, or at least I want to replace it, in shopping there seems to be a difference 91-99 is one and 00-06 is...

Automatic

Thanks much, going to do some shopping... I will get the work done this early in the fall after the local rallys are done. Plan is: I'd like to end up with 4:10's (I think) have 3.08's now I'm told, she really drags on the grades. Also want to get lockers, and go from the 31's to 33's, have...

Subscribed. Going to have some upgrades done over the coming winter. Didn't know the 30/35's were capable enough to retain.

Makes sense

Hi folks.. New to your forum and I have a question or three... My 97 TJ 4.0/auto is the subject. It's my summer daily driver, and another toy for up here at our new summer digs in the beautiful Black Hills of SD. Sits in the garage here all winter. Twice since I got up here this year (May...
