Here’s Why The TJ Is The Best Classic Jeep Wrangler Of Them All!

I drive a 1982 CJ7, simple and bullet proof, with no computers.

The first Jeep to have independent shocks? I don't know who's telling you that leaves aren't independent But they're mistaking

Love my 04 TJ only con is seats suck after an hour of sitting.

Wrong, kaiser -willys are best .
You don't know anything.

I have my 2006 Sahara tj from 2006.I am a fan of Jeeps,I have a grand cherokee WK and a cherokee kk but nothing compares with a Jeep wrangler tj.After all :Jeep there is only one.Greetings from Greece.

I over paid for my 2006 wrangler. Had some electrical issues. But I have no regrets….. always wanted a jeep and the in-line six is the real keep motor

Why the paedophile sticker on the back?

4.0 L have more problems than the Vega, crack heads, pistons that break, short circuits and on,,,,

Pretty darn fancy schmany compared to my ‘72 CJ5 ;)

I have a 2002 TJ with a 5 speed. 156k miles and runs great! My only issue is the lack of power in the 4 cyl. I’m planning to swap it out for the inline 6

Four Doors is NOT a Jeep. Sorry y’all

My 92 YJ with the 2.5 liter drove great. Even on the Interstates. I also bought some heavy duty leafsprings for it, and didn't ever need to buy shocks for it again. I drove it for 8 years. I currently drive a 99 TJ, same exact platform....2.5 liter AX5 transmission. It's in the shop getting a 4 inch lift and all new steering and suspension. It's had death wobble for the last 6 or 7 years. There are positives and negatives to owning a YJ and a TJ.
I went thru two AX5 transmissions in the YJ in 8 years. Haven't had to do anything to AX5 in my TJ.

Those are standard mirrors for the pre 2000s

I like it....its what I wanted......I ended up with a tj tank....built for serious off-roading.

I agree, but boy it is getting hard to find them without RUST.

Hey! That's my TJ! I bought my 2001 TJ in 2005... same grey, 5-spd, 4 liter Sport. Even though it was my daily driver for about 5 years (3 mile commute) It now only has just under 65k miles. I keep it in my garage now, set up to flat tow behind our motorhome. I've kept it pretty much factory stock (original soft top!) except replaced the blown sub woofer.

My 99 is a daily commuter. 30mi each way. 4.0 and 5spd manual with 30in KO2s and it just wants to live at 75mph on the freeway. Ive been through a lot with it in all hellish forms of commute and never officially offroaded it yet. I love it.

i inherited my grandpa's 1999 TJ with the 2.5L 4 banger after he passed away. he was a Vietnam veteran who absolutely was a die hard jeep fan and after driving it for awhile i now know why. he kept his in good shape, the paint job is still near new condition and it only has 136000 miles on it. only things ive done to it since ive had it is put a beefy front bumper on it with built in off road led lights, i put Jurassic park logo's on both doors and i replaced the old soft top with a brand new one that is a tan color instead of black. its a black jeep with a tan soft top. it has full doors instead of half doors too. ive got more plans for after market parts for it in the future as well. definitely the best vehicle ive ever owned.

What year tj is the best one to buy

100% true

I got a RHD with 135,000 miles on it very small rust for 5k. Love this dam thing I started with a Grand cherokee limited and they both ride like a boat. Never going back to any other Brand. I was a Honda guy b4.

I still have my '97 with the 2.5L 3-speed automatic!

No longer my daily driver, i still get the most smiles per miles, and lots of compliments.

Mine is extensively modified for added performance.
31" tires on stock coils and Bilstein shocks.

Super simple, super fun to drive!

Still have my 05 LJ. Pretty much bulletproof except for the stupid computer. Sucks to have the 42rle auto. It's been reliable since I did the trans kit, but that 3 to OD dive is DEEP and it's always in a hurry to get there. A lot of throttle manipulation to get it to behave.

I’d love to have a TJ, but I owned an xj for a short time and was not a big fan. I had to bend my neck at odd angles to get in, my head was maybe a half inch from the ceiling? Are the wranglers any roomier than the xj?

1999 TJ 5spd ... came with the 4 banger, installed The High Output 4.0 along with front and rear Dana 44's. We call it the H.O. R. E. Jeep High Output Rubicon Equipped (Venzuela Edition)

My 04 Rubicon only has 97k miles on her! Bought it a few years ago, bone stock. Lift and 33s and a heavy duty winch and bumper and she's good to gooooo!!

I'm an original owner of a mid 96 production 1997 jeep wrangler sport. 126k miles. Build several x over and now she's on 40's, 1 tons, front and rear stretch, Atlas, full cage, 4.7 stroker, blah blah blah... Funnest vehicle I've ever owned. It was a daily driver for nearly 15 yrs before I got serious with the build direction.

I want to get my self one, 6 in line.

Your comments on YJs and CJs are embarrassingly uninformed

Someone please help me find one

Had a '98 TJ .That thing never failed me , ever. Multiple trips from Chicago to Orlando over the years .No problem. The only con was lack of AC and retrofit was more than I wanted to spend. Traded it for '02 with AC. Having a blast !

"1st Wrangler with independent shocks"!
Wow!!
I did not know that! 😂

All Stores Please Lower the price of all Military and Local for all Brands of Jeep Products and Accessories and Production Cost Now That's too much $$ The Whole World Now 🙏 🙏🙏

I want to get one as a second car because the winter in canada will kill my cavalier.

03 Sahara Jeep TJ. True Jeep.

I’m
Buying one In Australia for $5 to 6k . Great video mate

With FRAME ROT… 1995 / 2006

Buying a 95 yj with square headlights. I like leaf springs. I'd like a old farm truck. Listening to you, the word pussy comes to mind.

The jeep tj 97-06 is the best followed by yj 92- 96.
Years avoid 87-91, 2007 jk and up.

I had one of those new in '97! I put baby moons wheel covers and the tubular bumpers with a white hard top on a white jeep. Bitch'n....problem is it got stolen and stripped by pros. I have always wanted another one and you just gave me the reasons why!

What year

My 4.0 is slow. Looking hard at the Golen upgrade.

2024 Jeep 392 is the best Wrangler ever made, period.

I just found a 2002 TJ is this worth buying

I have the 2006 TJ with the 6 speed manual.

I loved my TJ(s) — It to me was the real successor to the CJ-7.

I second that emotion. For the really sweet spot, get the unlimited from 2006. Still two doors, a little bit more room, and all of the classic greatness of the TJ.

Uh every body forgets about the CJ 5 and cj7 apparently

Well, let's be honest here.... the 4.0 ENGINE is bullet proof reliable... but the REST OF THE JEEP is not... I still constantly fix other stuff lol. Jeep tj as a whole still isn't reliable.
