wyattoneable Wyatt you're a great man sir! Kudos to you for your diligence in making Eric so happy! And taking the time to inspect them and correspond and finalize the deal and deliver. Truly remarkable! Now if the true SMA junkies pitch in we can make this a $0 investment for Dr O. Icing on the cake!

Dr. O.; Thanks for the tour of the newly begun project! I have a graduate degree in adolescent developmental psychology; and I can say YES, you've lost your mind. I too have lost my mind. It was in 1996 (when I was young and pretty) after a substantial financial windfall I bought a brand new 1996 Grand Cherokee Limited; but with the 6 cylinder. ...And all the skid plates a boy could ever need. A grand snow vehicle. I was a city/highway boy, so my Jeep was more of a vehicle to get to historical, archaeological sites, triathlons, road races, or mountain bike events. 23 years and 240,000 some-odd miles later, one of our kids drives it in and around the swamplands in The South. Thanks for the great memories while you enjoy the process...!

Great Jeep that you were able to obtain with Wyatt’s able assistance. I appreciate the list of things you had to check out and fix on a car this old. Even though it has no rust and looks great, it helps to know that there were still quite a few things that had to be done to make it a daily driver, things that would typically have to be done on any 17 year old vehicle that one bought, no matter how good it looked or drove. Thanks for just telling us about it, instead of videoing ever step - most of us look forward to the “good stuff.”

Took me 7 WJ's up in MA till I found one rust free. I daily it with 4.0L with quadra drive limited trim and it bad on gas but wicked in the snow, was cheap to buy and own and with a small lift and good bf goodrichs rugged terrains tires it looks good imo. Yea they can have electrical problems, but its nothing more than replacing a few sensors, its quite reasonable matinence for a 15yr old Chrysler, just find a good one haha.

You have put a lot of time into that Jeep already and now all these new parts. It’s gonna look nice when your done. I just bought an 06 Grand Cherokee for my wife to drive back and forth to work with a blown motor. Customer didn’t want to put engine in and I bought it for $400. I rebuilt a junkyard motor and putting it in next weekend.

By the way, I had a '94 ZJ with a 4.0L and the NP242 t-case. Had it on 31" BFGs and 2.5" lift. I also installed a Aussie Locker lunch box type locker in the rear. (I didn't tell anyone about that) When I went off roading there were a lot of sneers since at that time nobody offroaded a Grand Cherokee in this area. Needless to say the way it preformed surprised everyone. Man I miss that Jeep.

Hi from Lockport! Jeep guy here also. My favorite Jeep that I owned was an 81 CJ 5. It had that 2.5 gm motor that I promptly blew up. swapped out the drivetrain from a 72 blazer that had a 350 4 bolt main. Drove that thing until the rust completey ate through the frame in the late 90's. Currently driving a 2014 Jeep Compass while restoring a 1985 Jeep Wagoneer I brought back with me from Colorado.

I just bought a 185K 2001 WJ last month, and I need to do a lot of those "piddly" maintenance things that we do when we buy a used vehicle, so I am biased, and I completely get what you're saying about not wanting to risk your channel getting bogged down on a single vehicle, but having those videos available on Patreon would have made me a subscriber to your patreon (would have been a first for me) instead of just a random donator via paypal. You're my favorite YT mechanic for a lot of reasons. Would have loved a detailed look at my car through your eyes (and skilled hands). Not trying to bust your balls, just saying it's something to consider in the future. Love your stuff sir.

A;sp put om the GM steering box and reversed the front spring shackles. It had the two handled transfer case model 30 I believe. Loved that Jeep. Customized the entire dash with manufactured rosewood and SW instruments. That CJ8 is a rare vehicle today and lots are looking for one to own.

I've only had 3 experiences with Jeeps 1) family car when I was a kid. Total lemon. 2) friend's now. Rides and handles like a brick on cheap parts. 3) a 2019 I got for rental. Not bad, but seat sucked and my rear end hurt after just a 1.5 hour drive. In short, Jeep can stay in it's lot as far as I'm concerned.

That's funny about the seat, I had one of these WJs, a 2000 Limited with the V8, and it had probably the most comfortable drivers seat(never rode or sat in any of the others lol) I've ever had in a car. Unfortunately I lost it last winter, lost traction into the other lane on a 2 lane rode, and a big Dodge was right there waiting for me before I had a chance to correct. Anywho, yeah, I LOVED those seats.

With air tools, it's a long afternoon job, maybe 5 1/2 hours, once you've got one or two under your belt. Takes longer to pull the evap./heater box and upgrade-repair the actuators and blend doors (evaporator if it needs you are right there after all) than pulling the dash and steering column. Helps to get the center console out of the way, and the drivers seat as well.. All in a days work when I worked for Jeep/Chrysler

After all these years of hard work you deserve a toy Eric! I am by no means a Jeep guy but I'm excited to watch and learn how the suspension works. I am the same way, I need everything to work in my car, my Jetta has 400,000 km on it and I can only think of 1 or 2 things that need attention. I just havent had to time to do them yet!

Missed this one last week! Oh nos! Congrats on the new to you WJ, Eric! Just got around to taking the doors off my 2015 JKU Rubicon Hard Rock today. Half doors will be in next week. Looking forward to a nice sunny August with no rain... Looking forward to seeing where you go with this WJ build. You're absolutely giddy...just like I was the day I finally realized my lifelong dream of becoming an actual Jeep owner. It's like being a kid all over again! Congrats again. Oh and suggestions...I'm sure you can stuff 40's under there! Oh and WJ's with the doors off are, well, a bit chilly in NY!~

You know what I love about Eric O? He says "H-vack" and not "H.V.A.C." Why do so many other American car channels insist on saying four syllables - "H.V.A.C" - when they could say two?

Your videos are awesome. Your are extremely knowledgeable. If I wasn't 5 hours away from you I would definitely bring my cars to your shop for repairs. I can't wait for the Jeep videos. You should have a lot more subscribers!!!

Love the WJ and a shout out to Wyatt. I recently bought the same Jeep an 01 WJ and planning the same lift. Can't wait to see your videos as you progress through it. Best of luck and keep the great videos coming. 🇨🇦

You may want to pay special attention to having the underside coated to protect it, new york conditions will kill it in no time at all, just a thought before you bolt the bits on :-D

I notice we often have the same mindset from your videos. Like you I am a Jeep guy, true right now I am hunkered down to a Town & Country touring minivan sporting the kid around. House payments, and such. But one day again, I am going to get me another Jeep. I miss my Cherokee, as a Michigander it's the perfect auto really. Especially for camping. Something we love to do.
