With apologies to the VW crowd, this thing seems to fit the families need better. And you know how I am about fulfilling needs. :rolleyes:
I figure I will get off road use and I can also use this for work when I am out doing estimates and running around without carrying too much stuff.
Anyway, its a '94 Wrangler YJ. Really clean. The guy I bought it from had no kids, so he could afford all these toys. He had two jetskis, a boat, a Honda dirtbike, a Harley, a BMW, a Miata, an Explorer and a lifted F 150. He said the tripled car tax has been too much......He added a bunch of aftermarket stuff to it. The lift, wheels and tires, stereo with amp, lights, storage boxes and half a dozen tops of various sizes and styles. The top on it now is only a year old.
All I need now is a tow bar and tail light kit and I am good to go.
:D Even the wife is stoked. (Not an easy feat).

4 banger? Looks clean - it will be alot of fun. We got one a couple of weeks ago and have had a great time with it. We are going to be headed to Havasu in a couple of weeks with it. Desert Bar and Bill Williams trail!!

Nice clean Jeep! I have a jeep with a four banger that does a great job towing the boat around Havasu and the dirt roads.

You need more lift! Wanna do it cheap? An spring over. Hard to align but its ready and damn near free. Put leafs on top of axle. Suprised he never did it. Short shaft conversion as well is needed. Possibly will need to extend brake cables. It`ll ride better than the current setup.

Yes it is the 2.5 Inline 4. Slow on the freeway, but quick around town. I was trying to save gas so it makes sense. Less chance for speeding tickets too! :D

I bought a new Wrangler this past year (5 speed with the 4.0) and it has been a fun vehicle. It has really impressed me offroad. Have fun with it.:cool:
