TJ: My little Jeepy

Hey guys, so long story shortish.

I am a mad Suzi Fan, after selling this :

which had an efi 1.6, diff ratios, 31s, power steering and a heap more stuff, I wanted to go something different, something that had 4 seats and could carry the child with some actual protection.

A mate with a JK and also a TJ talked me into ( wasn't really hard, deep down had a love for Jeeps ) I saved a bit more and ended up buying my own TJ.

2000 TJ

3" lift, Rancho 9000 shocks, modified bump stops, swaybar disconnect.
Smittybilt XRC front bumper
KC light bar + mount
Lightforce HID 9"
Rebuilt motor with new pistons, bearings etc.
Smittybilt door tops
Hardtop
Air-Con actually works, but I've pulled the clutch fan fuse cause lets face it, they don't have the best fuel economy to begin with.
Goodyear Duratrac 33s on American Racing 15x8s.
Tough Dog return to centre steerer.
Warn 6" ( or could be 7 " ) polyurethane flares.
Uniden UHF.

I've started to do some maintnance 'cause it looks like it's getting on, I have replaced the front wheel bearings and rear uni joint, But next stop will be to do the SYE and tail shaft as the transfer case has been spaced down to accomodate the lift.

And 1 shot from the weekend.

Thanks
Pete.

Great purchase and welcome aboard. Manual or auto?

Thanks, it's a 5 speed manual with the dreaded 2nd gear synchro that just about needs replacing.

Nice find, I find them to be an increasingly addictive vehicle.

Not yet, i'll check my local dealer and see if they stock it. Keen to see if it is as simple as that.
