I have a 98 tj with 7″ of lift with 33″x12.5 thornbirds and some other mods. The four cylinder doesnt have enough power. So i recently bought a wrecked 2002 grand cherokee with a I6 that im planning to swap into my tj. I can use everyhing off the cherokee. I have access to all the equipment to do any mods. My main problem is my tj has a manual and the cherokee is auto and im afraid of swapping the ecm and harness wont work. Can anyone tell me what problems i might encounter and parts that ill need.

i have a ‘97 tj sahara and im looking to lift it about 3in. black diamond seems to be a cheap brand and im doing this on high school students budget but i dont want anything thats going to break on me. so does anyone have a black diamond lift? the package also comes with black diamond A/T shocks. how are they? any feedback appreciated

32*11.50 R15 ? i have no lift kit, will they fit?
is also a 1997 model

was thinking about getting the value flex system….but willing to spend more if there is a better system.

i have a 98 jeep Tj with an 8 inch lift and 37” tires…i was wanting to change my 2.5 L engine for a 4.0 L but i no its not that easy. i no ill need new transfer case, drive shaft, transmistion, and engine, but will i need anything els, and with buying all the parts and labor about how much would it be. thx

My 99 TJ has a small lift and 33″ inch tires. I have read that this can lead to transmission strain and cause slipping. I need to know what to do with the gears to avoid any damage/lack of performance over time. Oh and it is an automatic with the 6cl 4.0L engine.

I am considering lifting my stock 99′ Jeep Wrangler TJ by either 4″ or 6″. It occured to me today that not only will the lift bring my height up but I will be adding new tires as well. 33″ for the 4″ lift and 36″ for the 6″ lift. As it stands right now I still have ~12″ of cleaance to get into my garage… Has anyone figured out what the actual change in height is so I don’t drive home and figure out my modified ride has to sit outside?

I Just had my jeep at the garage to replace my winter tires, while he was doing this he noticed that the shocks on the car are dead pretty much, they have been leaking for quite some time and all 4 need to be replaced.

He told me he would charge 500$ CAD for parts and labour, i did a bit of searching on ebay and i have found 4 shocks for a quarter of that price, for around 150$ CAD 50$ shipping. Would these shocks work well with my jeep? is it a reliable brand? One is called Monroe, and the other is called SkyJacker. Also my jeep is completey stock, no modifications.

heres the link, i have also found a second one cheaper…
Monroe

im not exactly sure what kind of shocks he wanted to put in, but i dont wana spend 500$ lol, so the cheaper the better

I’m adding my lift now, and I need to find the track rod, where is that located? I own a 2002 Jeep Wrangler TJ, with the Dana 30 front axle.

If anyone has a picture with discriptions of the axle parts that would be really helpful, thanks.

Hi, I just got a 97′ Jeep Wrangler Tj Sport and I was thinnking of getting a 6 inch lift. What 6 inch lift goes for 1200 dollars or less and is great quality thanks.
