1984 Jeep CJ7 review from North America
"This is a really nice Jeep for the price I paid for it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had a few problems with the carburetor.
I had to replace my distributor cap, rotor, and plug wires.
My seats have worn quite a bit.
The steering stabilizer went out before I bought it.
I took a curve too fast and almost flipped which caused the body to twist and the driver side sits about two inches lower than the passenger side.
My head gasket has a small leak.
My fuel lines have developed a leak, but I haven't replaced them yet.
Other than that just general maintenance.
General comments?
My Jeep is really nice to play with even though I still have the street tires on it.
This Jeep is more fun to play with than any other vehicle I have ever driven.
I am also getting ready to start restoring my Jeep.
