I purchased this 2 years ago as a back up vehicle. As my newer vehicles continual fail me this thing has been rock solid. Right after I purchased it I did a bunch of maintenance to include full cooling system, all new sensor, ignition system and shocks. I decided to finally give it some love and build it to suit me... all other Jeep people are going to hate it.. I'm not concerned.

1994 ZJ 4.0 5 speed 3.73 164k

Purchased and to be installed:

H&R lowering springs

 Addco oversized sway bars and links

New control arms

Mountain Vista fab transfer case linkage

Rebuilt front driveshaft

 Motor/trans mounts poly filled

Raceline 401GD 15x7 +15

 

 Future purchases

 Steering linkages and ball joints

 Valve cover gasket

Ecode glass headlights

I've thought about a lowered "rally spec" ZJ with the 4.0 5speed many times over the years. As a jeep person I am excited to see your project come together!

We have a 2WD 4.0 5 speed XJ (that's gotta be rare) and thought of doing similar, carry on!
