AND.....
1955 to 1986 is a CJ
1987 to 1995 is a YJ
No jeep in 1996

[Snitty]

[jhiggins]

HA HA HA I knew that another TJ would come to PA's rescue .....But my little old YJ has done some trails in her time....

firemanharry, LMAO you take care of bussiness for the CJ'ers...LOL

 

[jeeprostyle]

Cj-5's are the way to go, no pic, but there the best.

THE YJ HAS GONE UNDER THE HAMMER.......

Any CJ is the way to go.

 

[jhiggins]

UPDATE

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hum bug ....a JEEP is a JEEP .....

 

[jeeprostyle]

True that jhiggins, but CJ's still rule all. I prefer the cj-5 just cuz there a little smaller, i got used to smallness after having a geo tracker and a suzuki sidekick. They can fit in the smallest places, where other things cant go, muhahahaha. There like overgrown quads.

 

[jhiggins]

TRUE TRUE TRUE........

Out of the Box TJ is still the best Jeep. Not only can we do the same+ off-road but we also have the interior to ease the suffering of a hot humid day out in the woods.

CJs (I think) are only better due to the ability to Modify.


Another way to tell the Difference between the round lights, just by site alone.

Notice that the head lights do not bite into the Grille and the shorter, more square front hood.

Here is the CJ with the rounded hood and the headlights that bite into the grille.

NOW!!! Notice this little lady that looks like she could kick all our asses.

 

[Snitty]

i think it's the license plate

:lol: I was thinking more along the lines of the Shotgun

Is that a cj5 with hard doors???I never knew they made hard doors for cj5's.

 

[jhiggins]

Over here she can beat me up ....LOL
