97 tj

New to the Site, just purchased a Jeep 97’ TJ 4.0L. Found this mysterious black wire with a loop connector on the end tucked away by the battery. Does anyone know where this goes? Kind of hard to make out in the photos, but it travels back into the main Molex Harness connector before the ECM I’m...

Posting my own is my last resort… I have a 97 TJ 4.0L I6 with an Automatic (sadly). I’ve been dealing with this issue for almost 2 years now where the jeep starts no issues but after it’s been running (either warming up, or if it is warm and driving) it will start to sputter as if it is...

I have a 1997 TJ with a factory 4.0 straight 6 and a recently rebuilt ax15 transmission. Since buying it off my father I've wanted to do an LS/v8 swap on it. Ive been pushing it pretty hard as of late with regular 100+ mile drives on weekends due to work and university, and have also taken it...

Hey y’all, So I recently purchased an 06 that has a blown engine, it was being towed behind an RV and popped into gear. My first question is, what is the extent of the damage done to both the engine and transmission? My second question is a little more technical. I have a 97 with a 6...

Hey guys, New on this forum. Have been researching what brake rotors to purchase for my 97 TJ. From the great information I have read on this forum you have to measure the hub and rotors. For 97-99 TJs hub should be 1/2 inch and rotor 3 inches with rotors being composite. Anything after the...

Hey there, I'm new here and this is my first thread post. I turned 19 recently and my parents got me a 97 TJ for my first vehicle. Its a standard Sahara, green with a tan hard top. I love it dearly, but lately its been having some minor issues that I have been able to fix for myself. Now though...

Hi, I'll try to keep this short. Last June (2019), my tj started having some issues starting here and there, but each time it would eventually start after trying 3-5 times and/or waiting 10-15 minutes. The mechanic I had look at it at the time said that the fuel pump and filter were about to go...

The heat in my jeep is not working. I am not really sure why. With me living in Ohio, it is a pretty chilly ride to and from school / work. I have flushed the heater core twice and there is nothing coming out except water. The jeep gets up to temperature (210) so I don't think it is the...

Hello from South Florida...

Hello - New member in LA. I just purchased a 97 TJ and it just so happen to have a brand new Sierra Off Road sailcloth soft top with tinted windows and upper fronts in the boxes. I attempted to install the top and ran into a few problems. It seems either my 97 TJ does not have the standard...

My wife (then girlfriend) comes from a family of wheelers. Her dad is a EJS trail leader, drives a monster YJ, Grandpa and uncle both have JKs. I went to EJS with them one year, and knew the only way to get the girl was to get a Jeep. So, for a wedding present, I got her a 97 TJ (2.5L). Came...
