I found it online on the unlimited zj board. The guy lives out side of NY and was keeping it at his dads house. His dad said he had to get rid of it by the end of the week after it had sat for almost a year. he was asking for $4000 but then said the first $2000 takes it. I figured I could part it out and make well over that if it had some major problem but the guy says all it needs is a battery to run and pass inspection. He says he just doesn't have the time to get what its worth.

picked her up to, she looks and sounds good. i'm going to have it inspected this week and try to get some tags on her for a DD. Doesn't look like my Zj is going to be back together in time for aug run so were just going to run this one and see how it does.

OK guys Joe and Nester you guys have a comporable GZ, here is what I am looking for; above the front passanger seat on the door area there is a Jesus handle, I am looking for onein Tan preferly, As you know my wife is short and need this handle to get in the vehicle, I though about making her a roll out stair, but she would hear of it, Hehehe. Anyway, if you hear where I could get one cheap let me know, Thanks. Joe swing by the house let me check that baby out when you get her tagged.

Hey Tico thats a new one to me. I know that the 2003-2003 and the new ones have a handle on the A-pillar. Yours should come with the stock handles above the doors but they have backing plates that will not work for the driver side unless it came with it stock. but i could be wrong, none the less I will keep a eye out next time I run to the junk yard.

its already got a detroit up front. most likley since its only going to see 32's i'm going to just buy bobbi's old axels and swap the gears and upgraded 35 axels. This way i'm locked front and back with 4.56's. This set up should make a hell of a DD/trail jeep. Also tico i'll keep a eye out for you.

whats the stock gearing in the V8 ZJ's ? I know that the stock 4.0 has 3:73's which is still slow. Let me know if you don't buy Bobbi's axles I never thought of using the gears for the WJ damn why didn't I think of that. scratch

Back on track you might be gearing it way to high for 32's unless your going for more lift and larger tires.
