REPLACED BATTERY, IT WAS BAD. I KNEW BY THE WAY IT WAS STARTING AND ALSO HAD IT TESTED BY A LOCAL AUTO PARTS STORE. I BOUGHT A NEW ONE AT WALMART ON FRIDAY. ITS A PRETTY GOOD BATTERY, 3 YEAR FREE REPLACEMENT 7 YEAR PRORATE. TODAY, SATURDAY IT STARTED BUT SOUNDED LIKE IT DIDN'T WANT TO. AFTER I WASHED THE CAR I WENT TO START IT AND IT WOULD NOT. I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY A COUPLE OF TIMES BEFORE IT IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE. SO, DO YOU THINK THE BATTERY IS BAD OR COULD IT BE SOMETHING ELSE?

Probably battery is still good. Try laying under the jeep with hammer and gently tap side of starter solenoid while someone else cranks jeep to start. If the jeep starts up like normal, replace starter ! Of course, other things COULD cause this, but try this first to eliminate or confirm the starter as cause.
