I was on Craigslist last year and bought a 94 YJ for $5,000. I don't know much about jeeps, but it had new tires, chrome wheels, new purple paint, great Bluetooth stereo with soundbar, original seats in great condition, it was so clean. I love it, I knew I would never be able to afford a new one. I've been offered double what I paid for it. Thanks for a great video, you let me know that I made a wise purchase!!
My grandpa bought a 94 yj se 4.0 5spd brand new in 93 and for the last 6 years I’ve had it. Best damn jeep ever and I’ll never get rid of it!!

But that’s when I found my LJ rubicon for $13,000 on marketplace and it was through a used car section at a Jeep dealer. It did have 203,000 miles on it which is why the price was so low. They transmission blew up on me 3 months into ownership. So it technically cost me $18000. I personally love the extra space in the back. But there’s nothing wrong with just a regular TJ.

I think they also look much better lifted and am building it for me, not for resale. Wouldn’t be opposed to buying a second one and keeping it stock though, would love a 94 or 95 Sahara.

Couldn't agree more!
I'm personally a fan of staying close to stock looking. I'd run some 31/10.50r15 tires on those stock rims and then regear to 4.56 or 4.88 and add OX lockers. It's kind of a "sleeper" . . . not sleeper like fast but sleeper in that it has a great stock look. The oversized tires on stock steel wheels looks great (more of a man's jeep than a boy's jeep) and the regear and the lockers will give you performance that will surprise others on the trails. When you're doing the regear and lockers, I'd also upgrade to chromoly axels and and if it's available for the yj, maybe a rear disc brake conversion. Besides that, I'd leave it looking as stock as possible. It's a great looking Jeep!
Love my 1995 YJ . The last real jeep .Totally unmolested . Just some stainless bling and some OME alloy rimes . It gets more attention then any 4x4 monster Jeep because there are too many of them . Thank you for seeing it my way . lol

What you should do depends on what you’re use is gonna be. Daily driver, show and go, YJ meets = keep stock. She’s beautiful as she sits. Light off roading; dirt trails, fire roads = your 80’s build. Heavy off roads; Rubicon, Strawberry, Fordyce = all out build Personally, I’d keep her stock and use for parades, shows, daily driver and keep my ‘93 for the rocks

I got a rusty one today ... it's going to be a long way to make it look clean again , but 4.0 swapped automatic from a Cherokee donor , rust bucket but still a jeep ❤️🤷🏾♂️ I have 1998 wrangler also 2.5 slow 😢 but fun !
My first vehicle purchase was a 1979 CJ7 with a 304 V8 that my brother and I saved up the money for by working the rice farm when I was 16. When we were in college I sold him my half of the ownership and purchased my first solely owned vehicle. It was a 1988 YJ Wrangler with a 258 I6, hard top, and full doors in 2005 when I was 19 years old. An engine overhaul after about the first 7 years, a transmission rebuild after "an incident" with deep water, a completely rebuilt steering system, a transfer case rebuild because it was 30 years old and I figured it was about time, some lockers, a new lift kit, steering column, seats, soft top, half doors, a couple carburetors (the first one wore out), a little rhino lining, a half a dozen other small jobs, a few sets of 33x12.50s, and 16 years later and I still drive that beauty to work almost every day. Most of that work was done by my father and I, and it's built the foundation for the mechanical knowledge I have today, as well as many fond memories. I've cussed that old YJ more times than I can count, but damn I love that Jeep! My brother still has the 79 CJ7 too!
I have a 1987 Jeep YJ. When we bought it it was almost a complete wreck. It now has a new top and on the engine and new paint. I will say with a lot of miles these jeans do you have a fair amount of problems. But from a mechanical standpoint they are pretty sound and fairly simple to repair.
I just sold my 94 yj 4.0 with 165,000 miles this past weekend. Owned it for 26 years. I just bought a 2020 4 door JL Jeep.
Bought my '93...2.5, brand new when I was 20 yrs old. I'm 49 now and have more memories than I could shake a stick at in that thing!!! Think I'll back it out of the garage today for a snow drive with the kids! I'll never get rid of it. It's been one of the most durable and dependable vehicles I've ever owned! And quite honestly....aside from the square headlights, the lines on the YJ are closer to the CJ-7 than the TJ. I love the looks of the YJ.
Had my 91 for about 22 years. Bought it from a guy in my Jeep Club, the original owner, as it was better setup than my '89 (plus efi vs carter carb!). This was in California, 6 months later we moved back to the UK so i sold the 89 and shipped the 91 here. It's been wheeled in the US, Mexico, England and Wales. Not many can claim that. On it's third engine as the original block cracked during shipping, the XJ engine replacement wore out it's cylinders (went oval shaped) and it's currently using a TJ engine. I sometimes think about selling it on, but just can't bring myself to do it. Guess i'll be keeping it for a long time yet!
I have a 94 yj (2.4 L) and the frame has no rust, and it is my first car. It has over 200,000 miles and runs like a dream.

Awesome!
The YJ is my favorite Jeep! I’m actually saving money to get one. My best friend has his still. It was his first car and I have lots of memories in it as well as it’s the first vehicle I learned to drive a manual transmission. He actually tried to get rid of it several years ago and I convinced him to keep it. He thanks for that all the time. The only thing that I wish was different about the YJ was, I wish it had a factory V8 option.
Just bought my dads 92 2.5L with 84k miles. Over the years we modified it to be an offroad beast. Lift, 33's, winch, lots of personality. It's the one vehicle I own that is guaranteed to start everytime i crank the key. Only thing I've had to replace in 5 years is the battery.
Love my 93 YJ. It's my daily driver

Did a brand nee paint job that looks like an orange sunset. 2.5 5 speed. Payed 1400 for it. Put about 2-3k in it.
My 94' YJ is the first jeep I ever bought and it is basically stock except for the 2.5" lift springs. The rest of the drive train is original equipment and it's still going pretty strong with 262,ooo + miles on it. It's showing signs of it's age where the 4.o straight 6 is concerned though and am thinking of having the motor replaced or rebuild. I don't want to "stroke" the motor out. Just rebuild it to stock because it is a strong, torquay power plant that does well on highway or trail with the stock axles and T.case with open Diffs. It gets around 16 MPH to boot. Thanks for this video. I enjoyed hearing more about my Jeep and how it's a good strong platform for someone looking for a fairly inexpensive place to start in the Jeep world. 👍
I had an 89 YJ, and still have a 2000 XJ. Both with an inline 6. They were modified identically with 4 inch lift, lockers front and rear, and 33x12 mud terrain tires. I loved the YJ, but the XJ is way more capable and practical.

I recently bought a 1988 5 speed YJ 2.5, already lifted. Great weekend warrior! Picked it up for $5k!!! No rust.
Mine has been in my family since 2 days after I was born and I've been driving it for almost 20 years now. It spent most of its life on road and stock though the paint is fading and it's had its fair share of dings over the years. It's not the prettiest specimen I've seen but it's more mechanically sound than many Jeeps that are years and decades younger than it. I'm so blessed to have the 4.0L in there. Such a dependable engine with plenty of power and it's so much fun to drive. And the square headlights make me love yj's so much more. All the hate they got when I was a kid had me embarrassed by them for a while. People claiming they're not real Jeeps. But it's exactly that hate that makes them so endearing to me now. I'm not stoked about their rising popularity though. At first I was excited to have a sought after vehicle as it's flattering for people to ask to buy it when I'm not even selling but now I'm wishing their popularity would go down again as someone tried to steal mine a few weeks ago for the first time in our 29 years together. So on that note, yj's suck they're the worst vehicle ever and nobody should want one.
I have a 94 jeep Wrangler with the 4.0 liter engine inline 6. I bought it at jim tidwell ford in kennesaw ga on barrett pkwy, june 6 1999. I am in the process of re-carpeting it and putting in a new passenger seat. I love to ride as a rag top convertible in the fall, spring, and summer which is about 7 mos out of the yr in the south. It's very dependable and plan on maybe passing it on to my stepson when he graduates college ( hes 18 right now) he has expressed an interest in it and the paint is in pretty good condition.a very reliable vehicle over the yrs

My ‘92 YJ is approaching 80,000 miles. We’re going off-roading tomorrow. Though it’s a 4-cylinder, manual, and old, this puppy takes the ruts better than any of the new toys I ride alongside. I try to keep it all stock, but I sold my hard-top to someone on another island, since driving with it on felt like sitting in a coffin. It’s all Bestop covers for me. Also had to replace door mirrors with replicas that look great… originals couldn’t stay put. Love my YJ on Kauai, Hawaii. 🌴
I love to see this. I got my 2.5l 5 speed ‘89 YJ a few months ago for my first vehicle. The frame and mounts do need some work, along with the bottom of the tub and brackets, etc. You sure don’t see these roaming the streets much today!
I got an 1987 exactly like the one in the video. It is very rusty but completely stock and runs and drives. Now that I have seen the video, I think I will restore it. The good thing about the Jeeps is all the nice after market replacement panels available.
Hi... really good information on the video, well done. I do however disagree with keeping the Jeep stock. I just don't think a CJ or JY looks like a Jeep unless it has a 3" lift or higher and of course upgraded tires to go along with the lift. In my opinion the best thing about the JY's came along in 91 I believe with Mopar MPFI... total game changer over a carbureted engine. I do appreciate the video and I have subscribed to your channel and am looking forward to seeing more from you!
Had a completely stock 90' Sahara. HATED the 4.2, Ill never go back to carb. Now I have an LJ. Bought it new in 06 and could not be happier. 15yrs later and still daily driving it cause I LOVE Jeeps!
My experience with a 1943 GPW and a 95 YJ is that if you buy a CJ or Wrangler type Jeep that at least 10 years old, the price will rise along with inflation, at least. If you keep it in good shape or restore, Jeeps can be good investments. Also, this only holds if you don’t spend a lot on mods, and keep it close to stock.

I have a spot
I'm picking up a 1995 YJ in four days: 6, cyl., 4" lift, TruTrac lockers; 5:36 ring & pinions, Dana 44's front and rear, 35" tires, chromoly axles, new paint job, exactly what I was looking for to get back on the Rubicon Trail. Paying $12,000...less than if I had bought an unmodified YJ and did all of the work myself. I may go to 37" tires, add a 1.5" body lift, or keep the 35" tires and regear to 5:13, but that decision will wait until I crawl across the Rubicon, rated as one of them most toughest trails to cross. *The 1995 supposedly has a galvanized body. I'll find out when I inspect it.
Love my 95, never any issues! Had it for many yrs, daily driver.
Not sure that I agree with the whole stock thing. Maybe if we were talking about a '70 Cuda, but this will never be a 200k collectors item. Stock its a glorified mail truck. That said, I love the YJ. I have quite a few of them that are in various stages of frame up restoration. I've purchased numerous ready for the junkyard go's just to give them new life. But definitely NOT stock. Dana 44's or Dana 60's cut down to the stock width, and the little 4 poppers replaced with gen III Hemi, 6.1l Hellcat engines. But of course, it is a matter of personal preference.
No matter what, install an ax15, with an external slave!!! I helped a buddy install a new internal slave, and it’s a job!!! The slave failed after a month, so we yanked it all again and converted to an external slave. A few weeks later the ax5 gave up. Advance adapters came through with everything we needed

Just my 2 cents from motorcycles and cars I have owned. NOTHING beats replacing the bulbs/ (use a stock or brand named) housing (if needed) with real HID with the high voltage ballast lights. Cheap C***ese housings and front glass suck. Get the good ones. All the $50.00 fancy halogens, LEDs etc are no match for them. Be sure to get the mechanical type Hi-Lo bulbs and relay if your running a standard single bulb headlight application.
Like everything else. 30 year nostalgia in full effect. I will say though more and more people are learning that stock Jeeps are where the value is at. No one wants loose suspensions and oversized tires on cheap difficult to balance wheels running on too hard or too long shocks and springs that ride like a buck board. Along with a underbody that is rusted and pounded to death on Black with Red line trails.
I have a friend that has one in black. I don’t know the year of his Jeep. My parents had a 2002 Jeep but, my mother sold it to a good family friend with the plow on it. Even my father bought a 1983 Jeep CJ-7 in the early 90’s. He gave it away to a friend just after doing my parents yard in front. He sold it to another person. I liked the 2002 one better and it had less rust on it. My father only used it for plowing the driveway the last few years. I even drove the vehicle a few times.
I bought mine in 2007 with 30k miles it’s now hitting 230k and has taken me all over cali Nevada and Oregon. If you’re buying one make sure it’s a 4.0 those engines are bulletproof!

bu a TOYOTA FJ dont waste your kn time with american cars, worst part is that these jeeps are made by crysler
the 80s idea sounds really cool!
Great video, thank you. I've watched it a few times as I recently picked up a Flame Red 95' YJ. Same engine as yours (2.5L) with some mods from previous owners (Electric fan, carpet out, aftermarket radio, hood lock, etc.) Very near stock, not a rock climber or mud rig. I'm keeping it that way and will be restoring it. Also learning to drive stick with it. These cars are in a class by themselves.
I just recently sold my 1989 Jeep Wrangler YJ had 240,000 mi didn't burn oil or leak oil it was a stick shift soft top I think I spent more money on soft tops than anything else to repair I was offered 6,000 dollars for it i took I had it since new I used to run 20 50 oil in it all the time I put a Weber carburetor on it which definitely made a big difference the emissions was even better although it says not good for California I don't know about that I used to run it up and down the beach on Long Island go camping fishing at night it was my little tractor around my property I would pull trees around I pulled my 20 ft McKee craft to Florida witch is a really heavy boat pulled like a champ tracked like a champ with the trailer anyway down here it's really hot and it had no AC I still had my 1993 Ford explorer sport not four-wheel drive which has AC and everything and is actually a very good and reliable vehicle definitely good for a young kid that has a little money to spend it would be fun I guess I had my fun I recommend them it'll be the truck you take to the auto parts store to pick up parts for something else that fell apart that is all🤘 PS it was black and I mainly kept its stock in my opinion don't put big tires on it my friends who did hardly ever got into 5th gear due to the weight of the tires and it consumed a lot more gas don't get the four cylinder otherwise it would never last this long at least the motor okay time to look at another video.
Love mine even with the 2.5. Just upgraded axles to 4.88 for the 33s
I have a nice 95, with chevy swapped 350/700r4 and 38" Buckshots!!😎👍🇱🇷
The hardest thing I find is finding one with matching 'half doors'. Up here in Canada they usually come with 'full doors'. I really like the half door look. Half doors come up for sale periodically but by the time you buy them and get the painted to match... ouch. It's almost as much as buying another Jeep!
Jeep might not be today if not for the introduction of the wrangler as AMC departed from face of the earth , first gen YJ brought much needed fuel injection and 4L into the lineup along with the trusted NP231 transfer case, a battle cruiser skid plate, some anti corrosion features and wider track for stability while keeping its heritage of leaf springs - top down - doors off and the high pinion D30 , my 89 which I still have came with AMC stamped keys least we not forget ... luv the YJ
I picked up a 1991 Wrangler with a 5 speed stick and 4.0 liter engine back in 2016. I love this vehicle more than any other I have owned. It came with the hard top and full doors. I haven't done much to it except buy a soft top for summer and some half doors. I was considering a lift, but after spending thousands on lifting my Grand Wagoneer, it isn't worth it, at least right now. My favorite days are driving the wrangler with the bimini top on trails/roads in the mountains.
My dad bought my 92 in 2002 for $4500. It sat after he passed away and I rescued it and it runs great and looks good. I’ve had many people stop and ask if I’d sell it two made an offer. One offered $8000 and the other offered $8500!! I almost fell over considering 12,000 was retail! I don’t think I’ll ever get rid of mine. I want to pull the body off and restore it completely.
I’ve 2 a 93 YJ with 14000 original miles and a 91 I’m slowly restoring both 4.0
I just bought an 87 YJ Laredo, 46,000 miles, been barn kept since 2005, all original. Crazy thing is the seller only wanted $1,000 for it, due to family member passing away and trying to clear things out
I had an 89 YJ brand new with automatic six and a/c which was noisy as hell and had nothing but problems. Had carb rebuilt 3 times by jeep and would still stall out on the highway at 65 mph. Nobody could figure it out including jeep dealer. It was mint when i sold it in 93 for $5700 bucks. It was such a headache but i think about it all the time and regret selling it and would love to get a newer model but there so dam expensive.
I have one in my garage in Rocky Point Mexico has 35,000 original miles been there for 15 years I only put 600 miles on it only goes bar to bar I hope it's still there garage is locked but I haven't been down in a year and a half because of covid
I have a grey 2.5 liter 1995 mostly everything is on stock and will never get rid of it love it
Currently fixing my 91’ YJ
bought a 94 with a 4.0 for $5500 4 months ago... after spending over $4000 replacing a bunch of worn out parts, I'm in business
Currently own 2 stock Yjs, one modified. And one woods beater Yj. Love them all
About to buy a 95 with a 2.5 4 cylinder and half doors. Only drawback is it's an automatic and has 192k miles. Other than that, it's absolutely beautiful.
I just bought a 94 jeep wrangler s yj and the body is not to rusty it needs paint and a windshield it runs and drives great the main issue I have is with frame rust I bought the jeep to restore it I wish I could send you pictures of it I'm trying to get the frame parts as we speak my frame rot is on both sides in the rear

Very nice!
The carb on my 89 Sahara was problematic from the beginning. I'd have to constantly douse it with carb cleaner. I put a Weber carb kit in it and it runs so much smoother and reliably.
80s build would he awesome! I personally own 3 TJs and love them. Would love to get YJ when I get more garage space.
I already had a 1995 YJ 2.5l auto. Love it. I have a little rust on the tub, paint clear coat is peeling, but it is stock. I have changed the front bumper, added a rear bumper with tow hitch, but I have all the original parts.
I have 2 1995s ! love them both! one is stock one is lifted both are in great shape! and both are exact same color inside & out...my twin jeeps!
