I have a 2004 TJ Rubicon and love it. I will always believe that the TJs are the last of the real Jeeps. I'll never own a JK or JL.

Last years for the inline 6 ,most importantly

Damn it! Shhhhh......keep the lid on the TJs. 😏

From CJ to TJ the only real Jeeps

Dennis is beside himself talking about jeeps, love his Enthusiasm

Awesome but I have an 06 rubicon 6spd and they didn't start e-lockers til 07 air lockers in 06 but I love this so helpful and very knowledgeable

Best car guy out there i learn so much from him. Great work my guy keep them coming. "Like a class" he gives . 👌

Love my 06 Rubicon unlimited. Never going to get rid of it.

*Correction* At 4:40 you stated the non-rubicon came with a Dana 35 front. Dana 30 is what they came with.

Honestly the Jeep Unlimited was my dream vehicle when I was in high school. Straight 6 and longer wheel base? Yes sir

TJ is the sweet spot

Love your passion, Dennis! Thanks for sharing it with us! Have a great weekend!

It's amazing the codes and vins that are in your brain. Dennis has a ton of knowledge on all vehicles not just Jeep's, that's a passion.

So happy i found my LJ, new to the Jeep world and quickly found everyone asking way over book price for TJ’s. As soon as I found a one owner LJ w 104 k miles we sealed the deal at 9k

I love going to school on Jeeps. Thanks!

I have an 06 TJ and I love it. I would never own a JK or JL.

My favorite Jeep of all time is the Scrambler. Really thought when Jeep made the ‘LJ” that they would’ve offered a Scrambler package.

Dennis, Love watching your videos. I’ve got to come down and see your facility. Several months ago I bought your last white denim replacement top to go on my dad‘s 1979 CJ5. Had a white top on it when he drove it off the show room in Dodge city Kansas in January 1979. In honor of Dad I am trying to restore it. Thanks for your help. The top is still in the box. Been busy with family matters and have not had time to put it on. I will keep watching. Thank you Dennis.

Another great video Dennis. Your great wealth of knowledge helps even us lifetime Jeep owners. The info on the CJ’s is awesome. God bless.

Another great episode! It’s cool To hear that my CJ is a collectors vehicle!😎

Thank you Mr Jeep 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Had a '78 CJ-7 I restored in the late 90's. 304v8 with side pipes. Loved it, drove it several years before selling it at a very nice price.

Dennis you and the crew there do excellent work!!

Look forward to the coffee walk

Good to know about the unlimited. I’ve owned a mostly stock 04 and daily driver for the past 14 years . Best vehicle I’ve ever owned .

Nice! Love learning about Jeeps!

I have to agree. The TJ unlimited is my favorite late model Jeep. It still has the squared off looks of the CJ and still feels like a Jeep.

1999 TJ here. Love it !!! Even added a Collins Brothers Tire Cover!!!! Wonder if Dennis and Ms. Kelsey would sign the Glove Box if I drove it from WA to TX. Big Fan!!! Great Videos!!! Keep up the great work!!!!

Dennis Collins is the BEST Jeep guy out there. he is slowly making me want to buy one JEEP

I want one!! This is my dream jeep. I've got an '85 CJ7 that I love but the LJ is over the top. Love them. Can't wait to get one! Thanks Dennis for making these videos! You guys do such great work. I'm going to make it to your place one day!! Steve from Texas

Dennis, you know your Jeeps!!

Great knowledge Dennis. Great enthusiasm.

I have an 06 TJ Unlimited LJ. Bought it in 08 with 27 thousand miles. It has been everywhere. It now has 250 thousand and is still going. Love it!

I think he misspoke, said the base model LJ had a D35 in the front. D35 was never a front, it was a D30. Also, TJ's had air lockers, not electric. Electric lockers from factory started with the JK.

You have a great weekend as well!

Got a black coffee mug hanging out anywhere? If not I'll get the white one to hold the Blue Island. Massively admire your expertise and results. And as you suggested a few months ago you do put a smile on my face.

Many thanks Dennis for another great video.

🚙 Jeeps! Always more to learn! I hear 👂 Ricardo got married and his new wife says he can't travel with you anymore? 🤠🤠🤠 Thanks for sharing your story! 🏎🏎👋👋👋👏👏👏🤙🤙🤙🛬⭐❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

My 2006 LJ Rubicon has 60,000 miles on it and is in Canada. Only 89 were sold in Canada and 8 of them in my color - Midnight Blue. Very rare up here.

Great show Dennis, I just now today realized it was on, I always liked the episodes on GASMONKEY that you were in

I have an '18 two door, and missed my TJs. They are way more fun. I had to go find an '04 Rubicon. Happy again!

I have a 2006 TJ Rubicon with lockers front and rear but they are air lockers not electronic. I didn’t know the LJ’s where electronic. Learn something every day. Thanks Dennis.

Just found an 06 LJ Rubicon with 88K miles that I bring home tomorrow. Super excited! Sold an 04 LJ a number of years ago and regretted it so now gonna right the story. This time with a Rubicon. 😃

Not an LJ but I have a 2 door 1997 Bright Jade Satin Metallic TJ or Teal as everyone calls it lol. From what I understand that color was only made for 2 years 97-98 and I love it and don’t think I’ll ever part with it.

I love your.jeep cj 7 show. I get so.excited. i could watch your show over n over.

My first jeep was a 1982 scrambler I bought for around 3,200 in the early 90s. Built it up to go over the Rubicon trail, great jeep. My 2nd was a 99 tj sport, Auto, hard top. Fun jeep, nothing like the scrambler. My third jeep was a 2004 unlimited, and though I never got to build it up like the scrambler, it definitely was my 2nd favourite jeep. Just recently moved to South East Arizona and decided I needed a toy and trail rig and bought a 1998 se wrangler. For what I was doing around here it was plenty fun. I took my wife's 2018 JL unlimited in for a recall and an oil change last week, and there sat a 2005 2dr Rubicon. Made a deal with the dealer and brought it home. No more 98 4cyl, and have a 4.0 6 speed Rubicon, yaaa me!

Ill never forget test driving a black one with manual trans in 2005 from the old jeep dealership in lancaster tx. I really wish I would have bought that thing.

Just Got my LJ Rubicon khaki 2005 6 speed manual bone stock 1 owner, and found this video, I will keep it and upgrade it later, for now enjoying factory ride ;)

My Rubi LJ has 16,300 miles 👌🏼

Hello Dennis, I like to learn in each of your videos, and although English is not my native language, your way of explaining makes it much easier and understandable, greetings from Mexico and keep making such excellent videos !!!!!

Thank you very much, for another very informative video! It's good to watch videos where you feel that an enthusiast is actually telling you something of value. Too many hipsters videos out there, so thank you !!! Get on with it! 😎

LOL thx to this video pricing on LJ's just went up! I have an 06 Rubicon LJ with 19K miles, resale value already higher than its original MSRP!

I’ve done my share of frame section repairs on the 97-06 Jeeps and found that all are a blast to drive . Thanks Dennis always learn something from you each time I watch a video .

I bought my Sahara Rubicon LJ about 4 years ago, I've gotten at least a dozen offers for more than I paid for it at a dealer. Love my Jeep.

And.......fixed yoke rear driveshaft from the factory..... I think Dennis must be the painter..🤔 And if so, my absolute highest compliments in that regard! You definitely know your paint codes and the skin on dem babies be SLICK!!!

MAN! I LOVE THIS CHANEL !

I miss my 1997 XJ 4x4.

Bought our 05 Rubihara new and only has 90k on her. She's been around the world with us and I don't think we'll ever get rid of her. Thanks for all the info!

This is great glad I run up on this video I would love to get in touch with them I believe I have a LJ that he worked on here in Tupelo Mississippi

I have an 06 LJ in beryl green with 27k miles. My wife has a 2015 JKU Rubicon. It rides great, but my heart belongs to my LJ.

Watching ur channel I ended up buying a 04 TJ sport love it

I'm currently building a daily drive-able rock crawler from my 2005 Deep Beryl Green Pearl LJ. My friend has a 2005 Rubihara LJ. His is more like the one you showed with the hard top and mostly original equipment other than a lift. Mine is modified quite a bit with long arm suspension, armor, and a 2 seater setup. Sold the khaki hard top itself for $1800 which was a pretty good indicator to me that these things are in demand. Looking forward to wheeling it on my local trails such as Rubicon, but I will be careful with her. As with any Jeep, check the frame for rust inside and out before buying. My frame looked fine on the outside, but was rotting on the inside. She's all fixed up now though. Cheers to the LJ!!

Thanks for your KZfaq videos..

Dennis definitely knows Jeeps. Seems like a nice guy who you could trust in a car deal.

I'll agree with my '05 LJ Rubicon!

And that's why we have hung on to my wife's since 06!

Thanks Dennis, another great coffee walk. Is there a car out there that you know nothing about? You seem to be very knowledgeable about all the cars. Great host!

picked up my 06 LJ in 2014. found it at a BMW dealership Daily driven it ever since.

I have a 95 wrangler with the 4 cylinder engine,runs like a timex watch,had a 97 but got rid of it,chassis was all rotted .the 95 came from out west and never was exposed to salt on the roads and never will

Love my 03 tj rubicon, if it can get traction it will move alot of weight and it is a blast to drive

I had no idea a Rubicon Sahara existed. Very cool!

05 Lj here. Love it

“Ten inches is a big deal.” Yeah, so I’ve heard. 😂

There's also a premium option package on the regular LJ. My '05 is one. Not a Sahara, but far off of one either. I've already been offered more than I paid for it.

The color keyed bedliner looks much better than black. Bet it’s cooler in the summer as well.

I have a '05 TJ but wanted an LJ. Just could not find one. Bought off the showroom floor. Mine is an Artic White with black top. Rubi with every available option except the dual top (mine is a hard top). She is my 5th Jeep. I have owned a '46 CJ2A thru a CJ-7. God I love these vehicles!

Dennis your so right on in this video. Only one misstatement was the base tj and lj came with Dana 30 and 35 rear axles not Dana 35 front (dont think that exists) and Dana 44 rear. The rubicon received the D44 axles with lockers. Jk came base models with d30 and d44 2nd gen axles and rubicon with d44 2nd gen axles with electric lockers.

2006 LJ 6 Speed Ruby here! We also live in Murphy, Texas!

Had one as a lease. The buy out was to much at the time so i returned it. .The motor was amazing..

Kinda like a new version of a CJ-6 or Scrambler. If they weren't so valuable I'd want to build one out to make a Scrambler style truck bed to go with the extra wheelbase. Thanks!!💯

My 95 is awsome has galvanized tub and frame. First thing I can remember wanting was a Jeep.

One you didn't mention was the LJ Premium package that came with color matched fenders (like the Sahara), a chrome grill, silver center stack and two-tone seats. I have a 2006 like that.

I have an '06 LJ with under 100K miles. It has a 3" Zone Offroad lift kit with 33" General Grabber ATX tires on American Racing wheels. TruckLite LED headlights and clear and amber Niilight lights on the Quadratech front bumper with hoop. I have an Alpine subwoofer and a 2-DIN Kenwood radio that hasn't been installed yet. I have a video of it on my channel before the lift kit and tires were added. I never got around to making part 2. Diabetes has damaged my eyes so I don't drive as much anymore. I'll get around to making part 2 and see if I get any decent offers for it.

Love Dennis he has great energy love from Hibernia ireland

I think holy grail must mean something different to him.

I have an LJ with 6 speed 28k.....absolutely love it wouldnt trade it for a JL...😀

FYI, TJ and "LJ" have air lockers. When you flip the button electric does travel to 2 small air compressor on top side of the skid plate that pump up bladders in the diff. On my 03 Rubicon I had to replace the "vent tube" going into in diff. It's misleading on the parts fishe. Also moved the compressors to the engine bay.

Dennis, 03-06 Rubicons are air lockers, electric started in 07’. As someone commented Dana 30 front, not 35. Cheers!

I’ve had two LJRs, still have one. 06 LJ Rubicon. The best Jeep ever! Only option my didn’t have, automatic, manuals are best. Dual tops, 6 disc changer, subwoofer, etc. Deep Beryl Green, with khaki. Too dark green personally, but I only buy green Jeeps. Still also have my 95 YJ in Emerald Green. My first was 06 LJR in Jeep Metallic Green. Technically not even available on TJs, miss that Jeep.

Good info Dennis

I'm about to go hug my 2005 LJ...mine has what would be the modern day Sarah Package with color matching fenders & two tone interior, fairly uncommon options! Amazing info man, thanks for this!

Great video

Love my ‘04 LJ

Dam sweet rides xj will be the next up and coming collectable

Just sold my 2006 LJR, was the second owner. Bought it bone stock with 71k miles one her paid $9,500. Sold here for $17,500 with 86k on here. Biggest mistake I ever made. Greatest Jeep ever made!

Love my no rust,03 tj!

Of the 30+ vehicles I've owned (including 3 TJ's, 1 YJ, 1 XJ, 1 ZJ, 1 WJ), my Yellow 2005 Jeep Rubicon LJ is the only one I regret selling. I sold it to a friend in my local Jeep club and then it was sold on to someone in Toronto. Sadly, its probably rusted out at this point in its life with the overly salted winter roads here. The day after driving it of the lot ($35,000 CDN) I was busy modding it for our local trails. Having over built previous jeeps I kept this one simple and low. 2" Old Man Emu coil lift, 1" coil spacers, JKS 1.25" body lift, 1" motor lift, Jeep Medic 1" lift t-case skid plate that raised the drivetrain, 1" lift gas tank skid plate. JKS sway bar disconnects and track bars 33" Super Swamper Trxus M/T, custom York A/C onboard air compressor with custom rear tire carrier bumper that doubled as an air tank, Warn M8000 winch and a Flow Master 40 muffler that sounded incredible when crawling through the woods. It drove like a dream on and off road compared to the shorter wheel base version. I sold it because I only used it for off roading and felt guilty having it sit in the driveway not being used every day. It was a great vehicle for the trails in Eastern Ontario/ Western Quebec and even the odd trip down to Paragon off road park that used to be in PA.

Dude! I am going to Texas and buying a jeep. Amazing

TJ Unlimited Rubicon will be in my driveway someday.

Can you do show and tell us about the 1973 Super Jeep and it difference Pros & Cons? Thanks dig this channel & Your knowledge of Jeeps!
