Also new to the site!Just picked up a "98 Trooper with 94K from the original owner for $500!It's a solid truck that needs a good cleaning and some TLC.He was RELIGIOUS about oil changes and keeping oil in it also(thank god) and the 3.5L runs perfect.It needs rubber and the front bumper is pushed in(hit a motorcycle!)Plans for the future will be a small lift,a little bigger tires,front bumper ect...Any info or advice on this truck would be great.Thanks

Congrats, hard to beat that deal.

You can have a lot of fun with a 2nd gen Trooper with a mild OME lift (only cost is the coils) and some bigger tires, like 265/75s.

Here's a pic.I gave it a quickie wash,she was REAL dirty!http://i690.photobucket.com/albums/vv265/THEPATRIOT-X/Trooper/IMG_1563.jpg
