Cruisin' the Internet has turned up some interesting JEEP LINKS including vendor sites for parts, and tools as well as sites for Jeep organizations. There are also a lot of personal web pages (like this one) devoted to Jeeps. There is some duplication of BillyBob's TRUCK LINKS here for convenience (where those links could also apply to Jeeps).
