I like these jeeps, I had a 98 with the inline 6. I did not have it very long because I traded it away for a TJ but there is a pretty big aftermarket following them for off road mods, I wanted to do a chop top on mine (it is where you cut off the back section of the cab do a little reinforcing work and hinge the bottom half of the lift gate backward and essentially turn the trunk area of the jeep into a small useless pickup truck bed)
Mine held up well for me but the owner after me had some issues with it. none the less it was a great truck. Keep up the good work and you'll have a fun project there.

Thanks, Mera. Out of the 8 Jeeps I've had over the years this is by far my favorite. Love it and can't wait to get some bumpers, rockers and exo-cage on there soon!

Very cool.. For some reason I loved these and the TSI even though I was never a mopar man. There was something about them. Possibly the teenager in my liked bigger v8 with the hood vents, but then again that was the era of streetglow heh.

Good luck with it!

This looks great. I love those headlights, i still want a set.

My buddy just lifted his ZJ, then he bent the control arm bracket so far the wheel is an inch from the fender.

Thanks man! I do need to start making more but free time is thin as of late!

That sucks about your buddy. Should've had an adjustable front track bar and a rear track bar relocation bracket!

Here are some photos I took today:
