Greetings and Merry Christmas!



A query for you. Define the Following:

Your replies will be very helpful.[addsig]

Never heard of it, only the old pre-Commando jeepster and the prototype, but never heard of the VJ.[addsig]

Does anyone know why they didn't make a Jeep Wrangler in 1996? Just wondering...

Transition year, takes a while to re-tool for such a large change in design. They actually weren't out of production for an entire year, as they made '95s kinda late and started the TJ kinda early in the model year '97.[addsig]

can anyone clear up the ZJ, WJ years for me? i know they're both grand cherokees and one is the 99-present and the other is the older ones, just which is which?[addsig]

WJ would be the 99-present and the ZJ would be the older models up to 99. And VJ would be an old 2wd jeepster which were little roadsters.They were actually pretty cool and some people convert them to 4wd now.They were made in the mid 50's if i am not mistaken and were only made for a few years.[addsig]
