gotta go back to I think 85 to have a solid front.
everybody just swaps them so seeing them in newer rigs is common.

i dont understand the hate on my ZJ

its a perfectly functional machine that i have less that 1000$ in for 2+ years of service.  cruise and leather.  was a clean TN jeep, has 3K in suspension on it. 

if it burned down to the ground tomorrow id be >3 times ahead of any XJ/ZJ on this forum of investment of time/ money.

I don’t hate the ZJ. I hated what I saw going on with it lol

I saw what looked like death wobble, shaking entire way to and from the Poker run.

My fav DD was my 98 5.9...  2” OME suspension... miss that truck.
Have a recurring dream that I have it stashed somewhere and it has a rear main seal leak...
