Which Haynes Manual?
I have a 2000 TJ. I need a manual so I can do basic maintenance myself.
Looking at what Haynes have to offer, I see they have two manuals that
covers my model. One is for 1987 - 2000, and the other 1987 - 2003. I see
that the 87-03 have only 180 pages, while the 87 - 00 almost have twice
that. How can that be? Which one would you recommend?
Thanks!

The factory service manual.
You can get it by going to www.jeep.com and clicking around on the "for
owners" section. Or the easy way is to go to the Mopar documentation
website at www.techauthority.com and see how much the factory manual
costs. It will pay for itself.
Or just keep posting here as issues arise and save Bill's links.

Re: Which Haynes Manual?
Ditto. The FSM is very good indeed. Haynes manuals sometimes wonder if they
have ever dismantled a vehicle. When you are scratching your head wondering
how something comes apart or didn't realise you needed *that* tool, the
extra 50 quid for the FSM seems like a bargain.
1/2" of information or 3" of information ? You decide.
