    Where can I find these wheels?

    I am looking for these, either in white or in a paintable format. Or something really close to it. Anybody have any ideas?

    Broken hitch bolt in frame

    I managed to break 2 of the trailer hitch bolts in my 1997 as I was removing it to have better access to the fuel tank. They just twisted right off. I thought they were coming loose and didn't think I applied that much pressure. Any idea on how to remedy this issue? Could and should I weld...

    New Issue

    Now that I've replaced the PCM she starts and runs and I've been driving her around town all day. It either starts perfect or it attempts to turn over for the slightest of a split second before it goes dead and won't take another turn on unless you disconnect the battery and reconnect it. All...

    How to cover this up?

    The pain on the hood of this jeep is just awful. No idea what happened in the main area but its like something got up underneath the clear coat. Any recommendations on a quick cover up? I have seen some hood wraps only or something to cover it in black or something to go along with the other...

    What are the best front and rear seat covers for a 97 TJ?

    Anybody have any experiences they can share possibly in different price ranges so I can narrow down what kind of black neoprene seat covers I should buy. Or if there was a better material.

    TJ turns over but wont start after installing new fuel pump

    I bought a jeep a few weeks ago. It would never start on the first try you had to try and start it, stop, and try again to get it to start. I drove it around fine for about a week but then it left me stranded at the gas station. I had it towed home. It would start on fluid. I ordered a new...

    Shocks for 1997 TJ

    I'm going to go ahead and do the rear shocks while I have the gas tank out for fuel tank replacement. What is recommended for a daily driver that won't see offroad at all? Is there anything I can pickup local instead of having to order and who might carry that?

    First Project

    The fuel pump I am guessing was going bad since I had to double start the jeep since I bought it a week ago. It left me stranded at the gas station today. Pops off with starter fluid but would not run or stay running with the fluid so I am guessing its the fuel pump? Watched a video on...

This is a lower end jeep with the end result just being...

    Battery dying with doors off

    I have a 1997 tj that I just bought. Has a 2 month old battery and I just did a check on the alternator and it appears to be fine. I took the doors off the jeep and didn't drive it for a couple of days and the battery went dead on me. I am guessing this is because the radio or dome lights are...

    Where should I start with building my TJ?

    I just bought a 1997 Jeep Wrangler. My 4th wrangler. I’ve had a 90, 99, 2009 unlimited, 2018 jl unlimited, and now a 1997 tj. I’ve never modified any of my Jeeps, bought them how I liked the look of them. Where do I start on this build? Any major concerns I should look at? Rides a little rough...

    Recommended Tire Size

    I’m sure this has been discussed time and agin but I just purchased a 1997 wrangler with a 3” coil lift. I do no off-roading at all, purely for looks. I like a beefy tire with a deeper rim. It’s a 4 cylinder geared stock I am sure. What’s the biggest and widest good looking set of tires and rims...
