I dunno that I’d call an XJ a better platform but it definitely has a better wheelbase.Manufacturers never continue anything that approaches perfection. Too many hand changes at the helm; egos, etc. After owning and wheeling a properly built TJ Rubicon (replaced stolen XJ) for more than 2 years, I can verifiably attest that overall, a built XJ (must include chassis stiffening) is the better platform. The Wrangler has suffered from designers who never wheeled anything. The JLs are just now approaching where the XJ was 35 years ago except for affordability, ease of repair and possibility, longevity.
