    Time to pass the torch: What's a fair price for a 1997 4 cylinder?

    Thanks all - that’s good information. I’ll list it, with all the extras at $4,995 and see how it goes.

    Time to pass the torch: What's a fair price for a 1997 4 cylinder?

    Thanks @phasty20 - KBB gives a very low value for this jeep and it doesn't reflect the advertised prices locally so I ignored that. @Chris I will give CL a look see for how the local market is doing.

    Time to pass the torch: What's a fair price for a 1997 4 cylinder?

    While it is never a good time to sell your Jeep, I need to sell mine. Having a hard time figuring out the market value, so tell me what you think is fair. I’m a part time mechanic with 30 years experience so I have done all the work. 1997 TJ Black/Tan (no A/C, no ABS) 80K miles (2nd owner...

    Frame swap question from a newbie

    I've looked into frame repair for "that day" when my 4 season driven TJ will need it. It would be great to see some pics of the damage you are dealing with, but sight unseen I would pay to get the current frame fixed with parts from https://www.autorust.com/product-category/jeep/jeep-tj/ -...

    Tow shackles

    Very nice. If you made spares I’d buy ‘em!

    Rocklights

    Great idea! I have a spare relay and switch position for these lights so they can be optional.

    Returning cooling system to stock

    I just replaced the entire cooling system. The only tricky part was getting the 1/4-20 J-Nuts and Shoulder Bolts used for attaching the radiator. Found them on Amazon after trying the dealer and the hardware store. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01GUEHNRC/?tag=wranglerorg-20...

    Is my TJ the only TJ where my soft top leaks less than my hard top?

    Same issue, going to give this a try.

    97 2.5 Heater Hose discontinued and hard to find...

    Thanks! That’s a good suggestion, glad to know the bends were not an issue. I’ll try that.

    97 2.5 Heater Hose discontinued and hard to find...

    I’m deep into replacing the cooling system on my 1997 2.5 and sourcing one of the heater hoses is turning into a challenge. The heater core feed hose is an 11/16” ID molded hose from the thermostat housing to the heater core upper connection. I’ve been to Advance Auto, NAPA and the Mopar Dealer...

    Why did you buy your TJ

    I came about my stock ‘97 SE 2.5 manual stripper differently than most here. This was the 3rd Wrangler my Father had owned for Pine Barrens adventures, the other two had rusted away (see pics above). He also owned a ‘47 Willys in full military dress - that was his start with Jeeps. He passed...

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Water pump finally went on the way back from the coffee shop. Ordered new radiator, hoses, pump etc . as everything is from 1997. Performed the tear down to get things ready.

    Jeep Wrangler TJ LED Headlight Upgrade Options

    Since you are using “legal” wattages for your halogen bulbs, I think these lights are probably better and the color temperature is more to my liking (white). If you put in relays and wiring to support higher wattage bulbs, I think your Cibies would make you pretty happy. For less than $80...

    Didn't realize I had after market speakers. LOL

    Better than dry rotted OEM :) Where did you get the interior LEDs? I’m looking for those now for my 97. Two footwell and one hardtop.

    Jeep Wrangler TJ LED Headlight Upgrade Options

    Thanks for all the good info here. I just purchased and installed the recommended cheaper “Amazon Lights” on my ‘97 TJ. No issues with fitment and I agree that the lights are better than stock, especially the high beam. Good match to the TJ front end. I’ve now got 100% led lighting on this old...
