So I'm sure this is nothing new on this forum, so sorry if it's a repeat but I couldn't find a thread with exactly what I'm looking for - to sum it up, my 2001 6cyl Sahara needs a new frame (no surprise). There's a guy in the general area that sells ones he brings up from AZ but hasn't gotten a shipment recently - for about $2,000.
So just for comparison, I'm looking online at brand new frames - of course the 97-02 TJ frame is the most expensive out there for around $4,500. But I also noticed something today - there's another frame that fits the 97' TJ 6 cyl which is only $2,600. So here's where I need the mechanically inclined to tell me what the difference is here.
Yes, I have an 01' but from my understanding a 97' frame should fit just the same. Is that true or am I just wasting my time thinking I found a cheaper solution for a new frame?
