Found some facts, ed.
http://www.caranddriver.com/article....;page_number=3 Car and driver got a 15.9-16.0 out of the Jeep. I'd say thats pretty good - was there an H.O. version??? or was that for 2000? Guess I am getting off track here, but I remember a friend in a 5.9 Dakota R/T getting beat by a 4.7 Jeep at the track. Guess we could both use about another second, LOL [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif[/img]

Yeah, I think the 5.9 was 98 only. '99 was the changeover and the all new 4.7 they're still putting in them today.

Ed, we Had a 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee LIMITED with the 5.9 ENGINE. They only made 2000 of them and they came in only (3) colors, Slate, Silver or White. We really liked the Jeep it ran like a Bear BUT we replaced the Rear End (2) Times. It was SUV of the year in '98. We just traded it in on the SILVERADO SS, the Silverado SS ran a Full Second Quicker and weighing in at 5450 lbs. I don't know much about the new Jeeps. Mark

GREAT, we were real happy with our run-being stock. The more guys I talk to or read about their SS Trucks are running in the Mid to High 15's. Thanks for the info. Mark [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Mark, that rear end problem must've been a carry over from the 98 year, because my 99 is making some "bear" sounds of it's own at slow turns. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif[/img] I need to get it in for some warrenty work soon. 14.9 is pretty respectable for a big truck like that, now just imagine an 8.1L in that thing.

The 1998 J.G.C. has the vents on the panels next to the hood correct? It also has those 5 spoke wheels with chrome exhaust tip. Nice truck.
