Broke the U-Joint on the drive shaft while trying to accelerate.
A seal is leaking around the fuel line to the carburetor resulting in a small trickle of gas to spew out when the gas pedal is depressed.
Replaced brakes at 107000 miles.
Glove compartment latch snapped off.
Leather is badly worn on the seats.
All, but one speaker is blown.
Upholstery is starting to come down severely.
Rear wiper does not work at all.
Fog lights would remain on after switch is turned to "off."
I own a 1991 Grand Wagoneer: Final Edition. The production number for this year is 1,560. It's rare enough to find a GW anyway. I know of 8 other guys in my area who own GW's, but I still have yet to find another 1991. Just about everything on the 1991 is the same as the last few years of the GW line, except for a plaque on the dash that beefs up the value for the vehicle.
It is a beast off-road. With its 4WD and and immense power, it has powered through many four-wheeling trips. Although, I'm usually there to pull out my smaller Jeep companions. I tend to stay in the back letting them take the chance of sinking because it's easier for my 3-ton Jeep to pull out their 1-ton Jeeps than vice-versa.
For it's large engine size (5.9 V8-360 cubic inch) and much to be desired gas economy (11-city; 13-hwy), I was a little upset over it's wimpy 144HP. Then I found what it lacked in speed, it gained in power. With its 280lb-ft torque, it can pull virtually anything! It easily pulled a 2 1/2 ton Chevy sideways in the wet grass; it never even slipped.
Despite some of the problems I've had recently, this is truly a remarkable vehicle!
I agree that the 1991 Jeep Grand Wagoneer. is an awesome vehicle. I too have the "final edition" with the special plaque on the dash, and have yet to see another. My Jeep has a whopping 240,000 + miles on it, and still going strong. Not enough room to list the items we've replaced, rebuilt, or fixed... but still is a reliable Jeep, as most are!
I also have a 1991 Grand Wagoneer with the papers from the original owner showing the new purchase in October of 1990, $30,000. It however does not have a plaque indicating a final edition. Does anyone have a history as to how these plates were placed?
I am the second owner of a 1991 Jeep GW. It is truly a remarkable vehicle. I continue to feel pride when I can drive it in spite of the fuel economy. I do not have a plaque on my dash to indicate that it is one of the 1,560 from the last production. How do I determine when my vehicle was actually completed in terms of the 1,560? Does the VIN reveal this information?
No Lie...
I have an all original 1986 Jeep Grand Wagoneer that I know for a fact will out-shine any final edition wagoneer on its best day. My Jeep is all original with the chrome still shinning on the center caps, trimming and roof racks. I only drive “Tha Woody” every blue moon due to the fuel economy and me not being much of a SUV/Truck driving person. But whenever there is a time to grab a load, pull the boat or the classic Chevrolet. It’s done in style while being hauled by my classic “Woody”.
Each time I pull “Tha Woody” out on a Saturday or Sunday. The Woody has them all wanting to take a picture or saying that classic phrase “Interested In Selling It, She’s A Real Beauty”!
Brand new white wall tire, polished/painted original rims, great wood trim and paint makes my jeep one of the best located in Southern California.
