    Qtrac question

    new grill guard

    RE: Throttle position sensor? looks good. Knew you could do your own mods or at least most of it. Even tractor lights as cheap as they are will help, and when you break one your not going to be crying over what you would pay for better ones. A few mods down any many more to come. P.S. Dont...

    Help me pick a front bumper...

    chat I was just curious if your going to replace the rear bumper as well. I dont mind the looks ARB front bumper but hte rear has a lot to be desired. it looks too square on a ZJ that has lots of angle and curves. Kevins has my vote for the complete package.

    1997 Grand Cherokee Limited

    I think the blue book value is a little low that you posted. My wifes 97 GC laredo trim is still around 6K although it has less miles. I have had good luck with my two Grands as well. Aside from normal tune-ups I have only replaced the fuel sending unit in the 97 for a whopping price of $25...
