1993 Jeep Wrangler review from North America

"Not cheap, no excessive anything - it's a jeep"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Windshield seal rotted out, relplaced frame, windshield, seal etc. The nuts that the roll bar bolts on to busted off the aftermarket frame, had to weld them back on...

Replaced the dash.

Starter died.

Flipped it up on its back end climbing snow piles, didn't really damage anything though.

Knocked the exhaust off several times, finally I got sick of welding it back together and got a new one...

Some guy was driving on the wrong side of the road and hit me head on, messed up my front bumper a little, so I bent it back - all the plastic on the front of his new truck was a big ugly mess, that says somthing about new cars today - their not made to run into stuff.

Had clutch problems, which turned out to be the pilot bearing, which triggered mt transmission tearing itself to pieces.

The steering linkage is very loose, kinda scary driving at high speeds, although jeeps really are designed to be driven fast - at least on the road...

General comments?

Built like a tank, you can run into stuff and don't have to worry about breaking it (if you don't hit it too fast that is). Its probably the most uncomfortable car I've ever owned and I love it. The interior is very old school and if you get bored you can rewire the entire thing in a day. try and do that with these new cars that have so many electronics that if something breaks, you'll never find out whats wrong...
