Nice ZJ! Mine is the 4.0, but I had soem over heating issues as well and a new tstat fixed those fine. I love the NP249 in mine, makes spur of the moment offroading easier. How high are you thinking of lifting yours? BTW, those running boards will get beat off if you go wheeling.

here is mine. 4.0 with 2" BB and 31s. I went wheeling a couple weeks ago and was surprised at just how capable it is. I hung with the guys that had more lift and bigger tires, just had to think through a little more.

Thanks! Yea wanted a 4.0 but couldn't be the price on this one lol Lift wise not sure yet, haven't looked to deep into that. High enough to clear most things, but not to high that makes on street driving to crazy. It will still see a lot of pavement. Good point on the running boards, will add that to my list.

Lookin good on the trails. 31" seems like a pretty good size, maybe 33"s. For the headliner did you bed line the fibery heat shield thing, whatever its called, thats under the fabric itself. Or did you just bedline the metal roof?
