Hi,
I'm new here, just bought this 97 and found this forum. I figured I'd share. I'm on a few diesel forums and came here for any usable info.
This is the second Jeep I have owned. The previous was a 97 Cherokee, which was hit and totaled.
The new one is going to be used for getting around at work and a "beater" vehicle to keep the wear and tear off of my trucks.
New one:
97 TJ
2.5, 4 cyl, manual
AC
Zone lift??, that's what the shocks say on them, 33x10.50r15s
supposedly a new reman engine and new clutch
Overall good condition for a 97 in PA with over 200,000 miles. Its around 211,xxx I think.
First thing I did was put the new soft top on that came with it, completely ripped the whole zipper off the back window, any ideas how to attach it, please share.
I'm in the process of getting new front ball joints, axle shaft u joints, unit bearings, all new steering tie rods put on.
I've noticed a sticky lifter the other day but I haven't driven it enough to know if it will go away or how I'll address it.
Bought it in SW PA and it is rust free besides surface rust. The frame and body are completely solid. It is supposed to have come from the south.
