Sure, YJ wore the nameplate first, but there’s a reason we never went back to square headlamps, OK? Do what you will with a’s front end, but the seven slots and two circles are non-negotiable. Yes, your author is firmly in the camp that believes “TJ” is short for “True Jeep.” Huey Lewis said it was hip to be square; but rectangular headlights are a residual rad fad that I could just as soon do without.

OK, so it’s the Millennial Jeep. Coils replaced leafs and the sharper corners were sanded down, but it still packed the old AMC inline engines under the hood; the stalwart 4.0-liter I6 survived the TJ’s entire lifespan; the “AMC 150” 2.5-liter inline-four however made way for an overhead-cam, 2.

Apart from that, we’d recommend avoiding the early model years for the usual teething reasons. 1997 was the first; by 2000 or 2001, most of the kinks in the early models had been ironed out. Those who want an out-of-the-box rock crawler should start their search with 2003, when the Rubicon model was first introduced to the Wrangler lineup. It’s now old enough to drink.

The TJ was also the first generation of Wrangler to be offered in more than one wheelbase. The LJ was called the Unlimited commercially, and while that nomenclature carries on, this early example still had just two doors; long-wheelbase JK and JL Wranglers both come exclusively with four, making the LJ the odd one out, but like the CJ-6 which it spiritually succeeded, it offered a great deal more rear-seat legroom.can be helpful to find a good deal near you.
