check out quadratec.com, they are based where i used to live outside of philly and they have great stuff and cheap prices. and shipping should be quick since they are close.

I like the 2 sites above, but honestly, get a subscription to Peterson's 4wheel & Offroad. They are the best magazine you'll find when it comes to lifting, working on, and wheeling, especially Jeeps. Many of the articles are very budget minded as well, it's not a fantasy magazine and has really good stuff in it. Most everything I know about suspension, gearing, t-cases was picked up from it.

 

Throw up some pics of the Jeep when you get a chance! :thumbs:

from what I remember the 4.0L straight 6 is a very reliable motor, makes good power, but gas milage is not that great. I also remember that it was one of the few newer motors which a throttle body spacer actually helps out(5+hp). Also pretty easy to change out plugs and wires.

Everything is easy to change on that motor. Very tough, I saw one on YouTube with a rod thrown thru the oilpan, still running. The one in my buddy's Wagoneer is still going strong, over 200k miles.

the 4.0's were decent engines, the jeep 4cyl= engines didnt seem to ever last to long and they are deathly slow
