Special Notes: The YJ gave way to the TJ for the 1997 model year (note that there was no 1996 model year; the 1997 TJ was released in Spring 1996). This updated Wrangler featured a coil-spring suspension (based on that of the Jeep Grand Cherokee) for better ride and handling, and a return to the classic CJ's round headlamps. The engine is the same 4.0 L AMC 242 Straight-6 used in the Cherokee and Grand Cherokee. A 2.5 L AMC 150 Inline-4 motor was available on entry-level models until 2003 when the 2.4 L DOHC 4-cylinder engine replaced it.

Special Notes: The Willys CJ (later Jeep CJ) (or Civilian Jeep) is a public version of the famous Willys Military Jeep from World War II. The first CJ prototype (the Willys CJ-2) was introduced in 1944 by Willys, and the same basic vehicle stayed in production through seven variants and three corporate parents until 1986. A variant of the CJ is still in production today under license. The last CJs, the CJ-7 and CJ-8, were replaced in 1987 by the Jeep Wrangler.
Additional Note: CJs built before 83 had a narrow axle that can cause tire clearance problems with wheels that have too much positive offset. On these early models, try to stay with a wheel that has less than 3.5 inch of backside.

Special Notes: The 2018 model year brought the complete redesign of the Jeep Wrangler, in both two- and four-door models. This latest generation Wrangler made improvements that will benefit both on and off road performance. For the first time, the Rubicon models differ from the other models in the fact that they offer more wheel well clearance and can run a larger tire than the other models. The JL has a completely new boxed frame but retains the solid axles and coil springs. Both 2 and 4 door models have a longer wheel base as wheel as longer overall length.
