Re: Buying a jeep
Depending upon prior care, it shouldbe fine.
The proof, as they say, is in the pudding on the durability of the YJ, both
4.0L and the 4 banger. Despite all the bashng they used to take from the
"round headlight" crowd about not being "real Jeeps", having sub-par
mechnicals, etc. these things are still running strong out there by the
thousands. The fact that they don't rust like CJs do helps tremendously.
The post-'91 models with EFI are the best by far.
Like all Jeeps they have a few technical weak spots, but they keep on going
& going. Funny, now that the TJ is so prevalent, former YJ bashers are
starting to accept them as true Jeep classics. They make a superb platform
for building rigs from mild to extreme and are being seen everywhere now,
since many CJs have been either trashed or have deteriorated beyond the
point of saving.
