WELL I DID IT
« on: May 08, 2006, 04:15:20 PM »
thank you every one for the advice and information available on this website ..when i was over in afganistan i had my mind set on a 1997 wrangler with the straight six ...but when i got home i test drove a few and looking at prices and mods ended up with a 1995  four banger ...from the looks so far it has been in a garage and no one has turned a bolt on it ...runs very smooth and four wheel works great ...its a clean canvas and i cant wait to get started on it ...my daughter (4 years old ) loves it . i keep you updated with progress .

Here's to your service to your country, Zeitler.   TJs are great.  But, they'll always follow YJs.   Jeep made them that way -- first came the YJ, followed by the TJ and now the JK  :lol:  

You'll say, "yeah, but the TJs have the round headlights like the CJ and models dating to WW2." This is true, they do have the pretty, round headlight grills, the TJs. And, all models in the aforementioned served well.  

But, YJs are the first "Wrangler," TJs are the second "Wrangler." You may not like the fact that the TJ is a "Wrangler" like the senior YJ... that's ok.  The good news, Zeitler, is that after you blow a few hundred on a YJ grill and a set of leaf springs, your TJ will look like it's  "first" too.   :lol:

that's pretty bold and rude to talk like that.  If you build your jeep and have fu wheelin it who cares what model it is.  I never seen anything that says tj are best jeep except for un knowledged opinions.  You like tj's? great but don't down someone else's rig.  I have had my yj for about 8years and when I bought it I looked at tj and didn't like them because of the interior space and I like big beefy leaf springs under me so I can slam the throttle and not worry.  congrats on the buy and have fun.

YJs are cheaper to build than TJs for sure!  I'll keep mine, thanks.

Okay Teufel Hunden, you asked for it.

Real Jeeps have leaf springs.

Even though they don't really need them...

IMO Willys are the "real" jeep! CJs are just a copy... YJs are safer...
TJs has more comforts... JKs... well not sure yet.... more socker mom'esh?...
But I own a TJ and I will build it up when I can afford it...
TJ is what I have... and it has the Jeep name on it... What makes it less than any other jeep? The driver!
I know people that can take TJs in places guys with YJs and CJs cant go...
and the other way around. I guss it starts with the driver that makes a jeep!
Sence Im still a noob... I don't own a "Real" Jeep :roll:

BTW Grats on the awsome new ride!

umm i personally like the yj better, that doesn't mean its the better model. They both got the same axles, same tranny, engines, everything, tj's are the more updated, fancy versions. If you want the original jeep, get a cj, that is the true millitary jeep.  I love my yj i like the unsmooth ride.  I really hate fancy cars, so a yj is p[erfect for me.  Its all about your preference, there is no BETTER model.
