Latest jeep wrangler Questions:
I'm looking into buying a Jeep Wrangler and was wondering if i could have some feedback from previous owners?
Answer:I love mine but I wouldn't own it if I was going to use the back seat for people or kids (unless you get a new 2007 model.. which are a lot bigger). Mine is a second vehicle and it is a lot of fun. There is a lot of wind noise if you use the soft top on the highways. They are great in the snow and great for the summer with the top off.... however, you cannot get the softtop up very fast. You could do what I did and buy a regular vehicle and a used jeep for fun. I watched and found a pretty decent deal for a 1998. It has 125,000 miles but a good used one will last for two or three hundred thousand miles. They are east to replace body parts and things so if one has a busted body part you can get it cheaper and if you are handy at all you can change the body parts (fenders, bumpers, mirrors, etc.)
I have an 88 Jeep Wrangler. When the key is turned into the start position the engine will start. As soon as the key is released into the on position the engine will shut down. Electrical power is still available. It will stay running as long as the key remains in the start position. Could this be the ignition module? I have tried swapping the ignition on the steering column with no luck. Is there another ignition switch in the system?
Answer:Turn ign to on. Check with test light for power at the ign switch terminal that feeds ignition. Sounds as if no power getting to ignition system.
I have a 1997 Jeep Cherokee with a broken driver's side front seat. I cannot find a replacement. What I do find is plenty of Jeep Wrangler replacement seats for the same year. Will the Wrangler seat fit my 1997 Jeep Cherokee?
Answer:I doubt it. The wrangler seats are different if i remember correctly. The Cherokee is more a people person car while the wrangler is supposed to be for off roading. I think the wrangler seat is different. If all else fails just walk into the repair dept. at the jeep Chrysler dealer and ask... HTH
I am looking for a used Jeep Wrangler and my dad's friend says he as a Jeep CJ7 for sale. I looked online and the CJ7 looks exactly like a Wrangler to me. Is there a difference or is it the same thing or what? Please help.
Answer:cj/7 s are older , there are alot of things that make them different, l;ike the size of them , where the turn lights are, the boxyness of the body, im not sure but i dont think they ever put fuel injection on the cj's but dont qoute me on that, the tailgates are different, im trying to put a cj/7 tailgate on my yj, up until 97 the wrangler had square headlights, just alot of stuff like that, go with a wrangler, unless you arent to picky about the ride comfort. everyone knows jeeps arent the most comfortable ride but the cj's are alot worse then the wrangler.
I have a 1997 jeep wrangler. I purchased a hardtop that needs windows installed in it. I have purchased used windows. How do you install the windows in this hardtop?
Answer:Short answer: I recommend taking it to an auto glass shop or a Jeep dealership. If you have the glass already, the installation should be fairly inexpensive. The procedure is covered in detail in the factory service manual (a very good investment for any do-it-yourself Jeep owner, and not too expensive on ebay). Glass installation is not trivial. I'll try to condense the instructions here: 1. Trim the urethane from the opening, leaving a 3mm level base. Place glass in the opening and make sure it fits and seats against the level urethane. Make alignment marks with a grease pencil 2. Remove the glass to a workbench, lay flat, inside-up. 3. Clean the glass with ammonia-based glass cleaner, then clean outer edge of glass with naphtha 4. Apply molding to perimeter of glass with butt-weld in the molding at the bottom center of the glass. 5. Apply "glass prep" adhesion promotor 1" wide around perimeter of glass, wipe with lint-free cloth until no streaks. 6. Apply "glass primer" 1" wide around perimeter of glass. Allow 3 minutes or more drying time 7. Apply "pinchweld" primer 3/4" wide around the quarter glass fence (on the hard top). Allow 3 minutes or more drying time 8. Apply a 0.4" diameter bead of urethane to the center of the quarter glass fence surface area. (I quoted this instruction directly). Go to step 9 immediately - you only 10-15 minutes before the urethane starts to cure. 9. Align the glass with the grease pencil marks and push inward "until the reveal molding is seated on the hardtop." Don't push so hard that too much adhesive squeezes out. 10. Open windows and liftgate while urethane cures to avoid pressure buildup. Apply 2" masking tape strips every 10". After urethane cures, remove tape strips and water-test.
I am considering buying a Jeep Wrangler for my next car and am worried that engine parts or valuables could be taken due to the ease of opening a Wrangler engine cover. Are there ways to prevent this from happening?
Answer:Locking hood latches are available for several suppliers. They might help. Mike http://thejeepguru.com

I know a jeep wrangler is an off roading geared vehicle but what about the 4 door wrangler? Recently ive gone off roading in a 07 4 door wrangler. Nothing on anything to big, just on dirt terrain with some rocks and dirt hills. Anything i should know before i start doing it more?
Answer:Wranglers are probably the most capable stock off road vehicle made, the four door models are heavier than the two doors and have a lower crossover angle, but are still very capable. Just remember that wheelin' is hard on vehicles, so if you don't have money for repairs, take it relatively easy.

Answer:flow amster 44 series of 40 series, i drive a 4.3l GMC jimmy and have a 44 series on her and she sounds like a beast. I suggest you do the same.
