Re: stock YJ wheels
Oh, you're going to get technical about who made the decision, huh? :-)
The only reason the old Chrysler Corp. bought AMC in 86 was to get Jeep, the
rest of the stuff (rebadged Eagle by Chrysler) was virtually sales-proof.
Daimler is learning that the only brand they got with any value when they
bought Chrysler was Jeep. Funny how this is all working out. With any luck
the Geremans won't kill Jeep, but it's a less than 50-50 bet IMHO.

Re: stock YJ wheels
Jeep was credited with winning the war. We bombed the heck out of
Mercedes Benz, and demolished every German town, killing tens of
millions of their civilians. Now why else would they buy Chrysler? And
the ruthless corporate raider take over means, that since has been made
illegal. Jeep will never again be trail worthy.

Re: stock YJ wheels
Hang on, it was American Motors that cursed us with 5 on 4.5, vacuum
disconnects, Dana 35s, and slip yokes. The Germans were the first to put
front & rear locking Dana 44s, 4:1 tcase, and 31" mud tires on a
production Jeep. Expect those clever Deutschlanders to continue that
trend with 2007 wrangler/gladiator to anchor the brand as true
offroaders echoing the ww2 legend in order to sell gobs of
bread-n-butter IFS 'softroaders' like libby & grand.
