New Cherokee owner in Tampa

Hello All,

I have bought a 1997 2wd Cherokee to get in and out of my house when it floods here in Tampa. TS Debby has already put this to the test and so far so good.

I would like to add some "insurance height" any suggestions for a cost effective, daily driver lift set up?

I am also having issues with the Jeep not starting or starting and running very, very rough.. so much that it does not respond to any throttle input. if i turn the ignition off, give it a second it normally will fire right up.

Does anyone know of a fair/knowledgeable mechanic/garage in the Tampa area? I am in the South Town and Country area.

any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Matt
