Jeep Wrangler Opinins needed
Hi,
I currently own a 79 Jeep Cj-5 and am looking to buy a 91-95 Wrangler in the next few months. I was wondering what sort of things should I look for on these Jeeps? Do they have any notorious problems? I understand that there are several different models avaliable (SE, Rio Grande, Sahara) what are the differences in each of these models? Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. Gary |
Re: Jeep Wrangler Opinins needed
I have a 95 YJ SE model.. It has NO options.. No AC, No power steering..
Manual everything... It didn't even come with a stereo.. The Rio Grande, if I am not mistaken was basically an SE model that all maxed on options.. AC, Power Everything, and different wheels...Hope this helps..

Re: Jeep Wrangler Opinins needed
All the differn't wrangler for these years are just trim levels as i
understand. Sahara for example would have nicer seats, stereo, A/C and a 4.0 as best i can remember. None of these trim levels indicates a bigger differentail or limited slip or anything like that. I hope iam not wrong this is what i remember being told. Nothing too look out for then any other jeep, ball joints, u joints. The 91 and later has multiport fuel injection and the AX 5 or AX 15 trans. Change all fluids when you get it. Make sure no fluid is coming from the bell housing of the transmission, might mean at the least a leaking rear main seal and at worst (my wrangler) a leaking clutch slave cylinder. The vacuum system for 4WD can be problematic. A manual disconnect called a posi lok can be bought at www.quadratec.com bypassing the vacuum system entirley. Ask for maintenance records. I would try and get one with the 4.0. I like mine MPG around 18/19 and when it fails, plan on using a 4.2 crank and connecting rods along with a differnt cam making it a 4.5 L -Brian O|||||O 91 YJ 4.0 <waterboy44@mail.com> wrote in message news:1112563531.075876.122280@f14g2000cwb.googlegr oups.com... > Hi, > I currently own a 79 Jeep Cj-5 and am looking to buy a 91-95 Wrangler > in the next few months.

Re: Jeep Wrangler Opinins needed
Thanks for all the info! I would be looking at the nicer Jeep model
problably with ps, pb, ac, tilt, etc etc... Which model would that be? (Out of the ALL models avaliable) Are the Ax 5 and Ax 15 trans any good? I'm not interested in the autos at all. Just the manuals. Thanks again, Gary Brian wrote: > All the differn't wrangler for these years are just trim levels as i > understand.
