1990 Jeep Grand Wagoneer SJ review from North America
"I wish Jeep still made trucks like this"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing, original engine runs like gangbusters.
I've had to replace the distributor cap.
I've had to adjust the Saginaw steering box once.
I've had to adjust the transmission shifter once.
General comments?
This is one of the greatest vehicles ever made.
The AMC 360 pulls hard, better than any Mopar 360 or GMC 350.
Great tow vehicle with the towing package.
Very good low range and transfer case have gotten me out of bad spots.
High weight makes handling in snow or sand excellent.
Interior is as comfortable as could possibly be.
Only bad thing, Jeep no longer makes good strong trucks like this.
