What exactly is the difference between CJ, TJ, And YJ Wranglers?


They made CJ (Civilian Jeep) in a variety of models, starting with the CJ-2a back after WW2. The most popular ones made for the longest were the CJ-5 and CJ-7. I think I read one time they made CJ-5s for over 30 years. CJ-7 started in the 70s, and they made them up until they started calling them Wrangler. The YJ Wrangler is most similar to the CJ-7 in terms of wheelbase and body style. They made YJ's from 86-95, and had the rectangle headlights. The TJ was produced from 1997-2006, and went back to the round headlights and added coil suspension instead of Leaf springs.

The older they are, the less shite there is to break, and the easier to fix.

Just looing for a quick and dirty - there's one in my hood that I think falls into the quoted age range, that just sits - I'm thinking of approaching the owner about selling. What's the engine issue(s) I've read about on here? Thx.
