\"1997<\/a><\/p>\n

Coty Built<\/a> swapped a 1.9 L TDI inline-four into this 1997 Jeep Wrangler Sahara (TJ). They upgraded the diesel motor with a VNT17 turbocharger, high-flow downpipe, and custom stainless steel exhaust. The motor is paired to an AX15 five-speed manual transmission and 2-speed transfer case. Power is split between a Dana 30 front axle and Dana 35 rear axle. Both use Eaton electronic locking differentials and 4.56 ratios. The Wrangler rides on a 4-inch lift and 33-inch tires mounted on Rugged Ridge XHD 17-inch wheels. The metallic green body features Hurricane fender flares, rock sliders, steel bumpers, and Rugged Ridge winch. The Wrangler sold on Bring a Trailer<\/a> for $16,000. <\/p>\n
