JUST IN TIME FOR CHRISTMAS! I HAVE A 1997 TJ WRANGLER SAHARA FULLY LOADED WITH A COMPLETELY NEW DRIVETRAIN! THIS JEEP IS MY PERSONAL RIDE THAT WE USED TO DEMO A COMPLETE OVERHAUL ON THE ENGINE, REAR, AND TRANSMISSION AT MEINEKE IN FORT MYERS. ALL THE BLOCK WORK WAS DONE BY LAMONTS MACHINE LOCALLY WITH THE BLOCK LINE HONED AND BORED .030 OVER, A COMP CAMS RV CAM WITH NEW FORGED POWER PISTONS AND LIFTERS, THREE ANGLE VALVE JOB, AND FEL PRO FINISHING GASKETS. ALL THIS WAS SPEC'D BY LAMONT AND SOURCED ALSO. ENGINE HAS LESS THAN 3000 MILES ON IT SINCE OVERHAULED. THE AIR COMPRESSOR WAS REPLACED THREE MONTHS BEFORE AND TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED WITH A NEW UNIT FROM SUNSTATE TRANSMISSIONS AT THE SAME TIME THE ENGINE WAS. A SHORT THROW SHIFTER WAS ALSO INSTALLED AT THIS TIME. THE REAR END ALSO GOT A FULL OVERHAUL WITH THE REST OF THE TRUCK AT THE SAME TIME. ALL NTK BEARINGS WERE USED AND I AM RUNNING FULL SYNTHETIC IN THE TRANS, ENGINE, REAR, AND TRANSFER CASE. IT SITS ATOP A SET OF 33 INCH ALL TERRAINS, WITH SIMULATED ALLOY BEADLOCKS. THE ROTORS AND PADS ARE WAGNER CERAMICS, AND SHOCKS ARE ALL RANCHO. THE TRUCK IS LIFTED FOR CLEARANCE AND THE FRONT AND REAR BUMPERS ARE AFTERMARKET. THE REAR BUMPER IS TUBULAR AND HAS A LOCKING RACK FOR THE HI-LIFTER JACK. THE FRONT IS PLATE STEEL AND CARRIES AN 8000 LB WINCH AND 4 6 INCH LIGHTS. ALL OF THE STOCK LIGHTS HAVE RACKS AROUND THEM AND THE FENDER FLARES ARE AFTERMARKET SUPER WIDES TO ACCOMMODATE THE WIDER TIRES. THE CONTROL ARMS ARE NEW FRONT AND REAR AND THE WHOLE SUSPENSION IS TIGHT AS CAN BE! THE TRUCK DRIVES STRAIGHT AND IS SURPRISINGLY SOFT RIDE. THE TOP WAS REPLACED ABOUT 5 MONTHS AGO WITH A NEW ONE FROM QUADRATEC, SO THE WINDOWS ARE CLEAR AND ALL ZIPPERS WORK WELL. THE HEAD UNIT IS A CD PLAYER AND WAS SWITCHED FROM STOCK. THE RADIO WAS DONE AT SOUND PLAYGROUND WITH KICKER SPEAKERS IN THE CAPE WITH THE HEAD UNIT. IT HAS THE SOUNDBAR ON THE ROLL CAGE. THE SEATS ARE TWO TONE GREEN AND TAN, AND I KEEP THEM COVERED WITH COW SEAT COVERS, SO THEY LOOK NEW. THE CARPET IS THERE AND ISNT TRASHED. THE VISORS WERE REPLACED A FEW MONTH AGO SINCE THEY USUALLY CRACK OFF. THE PAINT IS CLEAN AND THE TIRES ALMOST NEW. THERE IS A SLIGHT AMOUNT OF FADING ON THE FENDER FLARE IN THE CLEARCOAT. THIS DOES NOT AFFECT PERFORMANCE AND YOU WILL NOT READILY NOTICE IT, UNLESS YOU ARE LOOKING FOR IT. THE SEATS ARE ALL IN GREAT SHAPE, HOWEVER, THERE IS A HOLE ABOUT THE SIZE OF A PENCIL ERASER ON THE DRIVERS SEAT. THIS JEEP WAS MY DAILY DRIVER. IT IS A PAVEMENT PRINCESS, AND I TRULY BUILT IT AS A BUGOUT VEHICLE. I HAVE SINCE MOVED INTO AN AM GENERAL HMVR AS MY VEHICLE OF CHOICE. I HAVE OVER $6K INVESTED IN THE DRIVELINE JUST IN THE PAST THREE MONTHS. YOU ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT FIND ANOTHER JEEP THIS WELL MAINTAINED AND NEW FOR THIS PRICE! I HAVE A PROGRAMMER IN IT ALSO FOR FUEL ECONOMY AND TORQUE CURVES. THE A/C IS FREEZING AND EVERYTHING WORKS AS IT SHOULD! COME SEE IT, YOU WILL LOVE IT!
