    Currently have 1997 tj with the 2.5 5spd. My buddy has a complete 97 chassis with the 4.0 and 5spd ax15, and 4in lift that he just sold the tub off of.

    Does anyone have any solutions or have found a gas door where you can store your gas cap when pumping gas? The last time I got gas I forgot my cap but I found it. I’m still not able to find a gas door cover with a cap holder if anyone has any ideas.

    My 97 2.5l 5speed tj is completely stock. I would like to swap a v8 into probably around the end of the year. The Jeep is very sentimental to me so “sell it and get myself a 6cyl” is not my plan.

    What would you guys say a fair price for a soft top should go for? It’s complete with all hardware and frames. It’s in decent condition no rips or tears except the zippers will need to be replaced.
