Oh well, folks,
A couple of you warned me about this. My wife no sooner got rid of the 84
CJ-7 junker she bought, and she bought a 97 4 cyl TJ.
At least with this 97, I have something to work with and not work on, all
the time. I drove it home from the "Jeep Specialist" and it runs pretty
good. No problem at all w/70 mph on the freeway. It does run faster with
the wind though. Same for downhill.
The little white bugger checks out w/Auto Check, so it looks like I'm a
permanent member of this group. Unless you kick me out for being a red neck
farmer, that is.
I have a copy of the owner's manual on the way, as well as deer warning
whistles from JC Whitney. I think I'd like to get some BIG yellow/amber fog
lights, and some other "add-ons". Y'kno how it goes; add on here, replace
there, tinker, tinker...
JC Whitney has a pretty good Jeep section, but I'm sure there must be other
places as good, or better. Any suggestions?
Ain't it fun bein a sinner?

Might as well start with these:
http://www.quadratec.com/
http://www.4wd.com/newsite/default.asp
Get a copy of "JP Magazine"
Get their catalogs before you spend any money at JC Whitney.
There are lots of smaller specialty places for the performance accesories.

Just don't buy any overpriced CB stuff from them.
3 times what it's worth. An AM only CB is worth maybe $50.
I could sell you used/tested ones for less.

You might want to check your links on that page... Quite a few of 'em are
dead (i.e. have been changed)... One of the problems with linking to other
sites that I've noticed over the years... People seem to have a habit of
changing their sites and you don't know it until someone brings it to your
attention...

Yup, hair today, gone tomorrow. A couple go and come, which I
mirrored and left their URLs.

I say skip the deer whistles and instead put on a deer CATCHER
It would just scoop them up and you could put them in the freezer that way.
