Hmmm. Maybe. But seeing as they were trying to get to his place to get "hammered", I'll stick with the weed theory until the op defines what he meant, LOL

You guys really need to learn to read lol. I can't believe people are still going on about that.

"Jeep with a soft J" is pronounced with a "soft J". Like a G in French, or the J in Beijing. For us Anglophones it can be written ZH.

Nope 97 with just about 200k. I treated it like crap in college before I knew how awesome it was.

Plus 99.5 didn't have the 0331 head. They started putting them in rigs in production in 99 which were marked as 2000s.

Bit when you call it a 99.5 it makes people think it's later 99s.

Washed the windows since it was warm and sunny out...I think we almost hit 30! It's just a pain to wash the windows when the window cleaner freezes upon contact with the window, so I warmed up the interior first...The road salt just smears everywhere...I can't wait till it's warm enough to wash the Jeep without worrying about covering it in ice...Feels like spring's coming soon, because it's been over 15 degrees for several days in a row now!

No.
A 96.5 is a '96 with some '97 parts.
A 98.5 is a '98 with some '99 parts.
A 99.5 would be a '99 with some '00 parts, but I don't know what would've changed midway through that model year.

Sold the stock driveshaft & the 2 tire/wheels I replaced for salvage parts to some craigslisters. $70 back in the till to offset costs a little bit.

Thread locked some of my quick disco bolts, and my parents made me clean the driveway since there are now mud tracks leading out to the street... Stupid HOA!
