You too smart 👍🏻🇺🇸. I always have said that you don't drive a Jeep like a regular car. The center of gravity is so high that you must respect it or else.

Exactly take them track bars out and go offroad

There's a simple reason why I don't buy SUVs.

I prefer jeep BJ

Jim Carlson I don’t know if I want to know how that happens.

😆😆

300k miles. Not bad. I don't think an FCA Jeep will do that

My 95 was the best Jeep I ever had. I had a 90, 92, 95, 97 TJ. Although the TJ redesign was very cool and much nicer vehicle, the 95 was far better then the 90 and 92 and I could see it being more reliable then my somewhat unreliable 90 and 92. Congrats on having such a good Jeep for so long. Good for you.

U had replace oil and battery each year I'm sure engine is dust always

@@ggolds5 did you ever own a 4 cylinder Jeep? If so, how was it?

@@DucatiPaso750 My 90, 92 were 4 cyl. Purchased both new. Both 5spd. Neither of those had air conditioning. Overall I didn't think they were really slow. Peppy, not fast, but certainly very manageable. I loved both of them. I now have a 19 Wrangler Sahara Unlimited 6cyl. Auto and love it.

I'm laughing out so bad. LOL

+JeepCollector91 indeed!

I have a 91 yj with 316,000 miles. great 4.0 engine!

I know how you feel, i love the round and square headlights

I have a 94' 6 cyl as well, I don't get why people don't like the square headlights, I love them!

Me too. I owned a '87 Wrangler Laredo. I miss it.

My /76 cj-7,304,I miss. Like to have another or in a pinch a YJ.

Square peg in a round hole is where I stand.

One who talks a big game over the keyboard, just means hes angry about something wrong with oneself. So I would STFU TROLL.

hnnotyy do you know even know ANYTHING about cars

I mean this thing was $22,631 you can still get jeeps for that price

if you account for inflation the jeep has only went up 2-3 thousand dollars

I'd say reliability has gone down the crapper too.

The leaf springs are wider and spaced farther apart. The front and rear tread, aka track width, are both wider.

the responsibility changes when you decide to lift it....

Any Jeep can be rolled tho.

Jeep Wrangler CJ 85 and 86, Jeep Wrangler YJ 87 and 88 is my favorite

rygi23 i have a 87 4.0 and i beat a fiat wrangler lol

Yeah but it has those awful springs and no factory air

Definitely

+1903tx I think at this point car companies were starting to see the public regarding column shifters as antiquated and how a center-mount shifter gives the appearance and feel of a sportier car which seemingly everyone wanted in the 80s and all the way up to today.

The linkage is more complex with a column mounted shifter whereas the floor mount is easier with its direct connection with the tranny

Actually, very few floor/console shifters are actually direct to the transmission. Most of them use cables or servomotors to shift the transmission. In any case, yes a column linkage is more complex, but it's been used for decades in all sorts of vehicles and not many people have complained of them breaking. They've disappeared largely for the reason that snappy452 said - people see column shifters as outdated. Plus the fact that manufacturers can save money on linkages, like you said.

So true. Automatics trying to act like manuals. Column shift is the way to go for automatics.

I heavily disagree with this statement. Center shifters give the feel of a manual, and are also super convenient. And if your car is equipped with a sport mode other than just a simple drive mode, it makes shifting through the gears on your own an absolute blast. And they are super easy to maintain and repair too. Column shifters belong on luxo boats, where you dont do much shifting at all. And column shift is an absolute bear to fix and work with. Overall, center console shifters are just so much better. And besides, what else are you going to use that extra space for in the center?

Yep

Also it Looks more aggressive

People hated the square headlights??? I fcking love those things! to me it looks so much better than the old bugeyed round headlights from the cj.

M Kefer I just bought a 87 Laredo yj. A one owner garage kept. Paid 5500 for it. 93k on the clock. Runs excellent. I'm glad I purchased one of these classic gems

My 87 was, VIN starts with a 2.

Brampton built '87-92.

Long Island is jeep cancer

I've fulfilled several requests already, the others are archived on tricky formats to digitize. They're all important and will be posted as soon as possible. Thanks to all for watching.

***** That's great! Thank you so much for working on all the great video archives! There's going to be 100 a week at this rate. Haha

***** thank you for the effort you make in posting these....I watch all of them that I can =)

i have a 93 wrangler sahara edition, which was before they galvinized the body. and there is literally no rust.. 193000 miles too..

You must not live in the upper Midwest. Jeeps were on the hit list of road salt. :(

Depends on where you live, we rarely if ever get that yankee stuff yall call snow down here in Georgia

@@whitetrashcustomz5003 If you ever see a DOT salt brine truck you WILL know what rust is.

Seth Thomas never, like I said I’m from the South

+Vincent D I'll take a 4.0 or 2.5 YJ with a manual over *ANY* jeep made today.

BuzzFeedRight that’s bull shit !

No she found out it didn't have round headlights. Deal was over. Get a real Jeep! The best ones I ever saw are CJ7's and the 2 door JK X '07 - '10 only. The rest of the JK's suck. And don't get me started on jku and jlu 4 door limos.

Jeep Life71, No, since you seem to like CJ’s I’ll say this: A YJ is basically a CJ slightly modified with the addition of sealed beam rectangular headlights. “BuT a ReAl JeEp HaS rOuND HeAdLiGhTs!” Can you shut up? “Oh no! The headlight shape changed! I’m terrified!” The ascetics don’t matter, what does is the simplicity. A Jeep is simple and rugged, and guess what??? THE YJ IS BOTH! The YJ is the last good Jeep, why? This is the last model with a leaf spring suspension and the simplicity. The TJ is the last acceptable Jeep, it’s when Chrysler took over and changed pretty much everything, suspension? Coil. Engine? More computerized than the YJ. Interior? Plastic everywhere. So, yeah.

Jeep Life71, One more thing, what’s more common? YJ or CJ?

@@jacknedry3925 YJ's are cool, my college roommate had one and that was the second Jeep I drove in. The doors and windows were in the dorm. The cool factor was certainly there. My grandfather had CJ and it was an animal off road. But even he said my JK was more capable and certainly was more comfortable with coil springs. Plus all the other suspension upgrades I made. Leaf springs are retro cool but the ride is rough. All real 2 door Jeeps are but who cares. If we wanted a smoother ride, we would all own Cadillacs. Jeep On 🇺🇸

JL no shit

Actually, I ended up being wrong this whole time. They were actually carrying it to demonstrate how light it was. I guess it was a matter of having never seen the test before & being so eager to just jump on the "Yugos are pieces of s***" bandwagon that I jumped to conclusions that a brand new one had already broken down during testing.

I have even heard stories of them breaking down on the way home from the dealer & even ON THE FREAKING TEST DRIVES!!!!!

The AMC merger was ongoing during the 1988 model year, American Motors changed its named to "Jeep-Eagle Corporation" in 1988 and was fully merged into Chrysler in 1990. The 1988 Premier (introduced January 1988) has AMC builder plates on the doors and the VIN has the legal manufacturer of record as American Motors Corp. It took three full years from Chrysler's March 1987 purchase agreement (acquiring controlling interest and outstanding shares from Renault) to having AMC fully merged. YJs from 1986 launch to end of '92 model year (April 23, 1992) were built in Brampton, Ontario.

dodgeguyz , well I got one "NO RUST HOLES" anyware, for sale soon.......

10-4.

+JoshTheLewi The current Wranglers are still RWD.
