Hey guy new to the site and 4wd.

Wondering anyone who has this model any common problems besides the random stalling already fixing that with a new crank angle sensor ( hopefully that's the fix) its at a trusted auto elec, also sorting out rough idling in the morning haven't found that problem yet so any suggestions would be great,

any thoughts on upgrades and set ups for the rig would be great, main uses will be sand dunes, and soft 4wd a bit of mud water etc no hardcore stuff yet :worked_till_5am:
Been looking at a arb bull bar that can house a winch, and adding a front tow points for the time being as I'm a apprentice.

thanks for reading and advice in advance cheers guys

Welcome
the TPS should fix your problems as I had similar problem with my 01 limited V8. Check www.rockauto.com
ARB are the only one that make a winch bar.
A basic quality 2" lift and good tyres (max 31-31.5") will do wonders. A haines tow bar will cover you for rear recovery and the ARB has recovery points in front. But use a equalizer strap for front to even out when doing a heavy recovery
If youhave money left get a set of rock sliders to protect your sills
Good luck

Thanks for the speedy replys, I do have a set of rock sliders/steps. Ill be getting a ridge rider rated at 4.3 tonnes I'm pretty sure, the recovery points for the front I still need to work out, also are these model jeep known to have a solid engine as my is at 270000, but engine bay seem very clean as well as seals only one I need to replace is the oil pan seal
