I couldn't understand why all these Jeeps looked so good. Ooops thought I was in the unfortunate JKU thread.
The fortunate JK, JL of the day thread
- Thread starter mots
- Start date
In this thread we like Jeeps..well, Jeeps that arnt terribly over done.
And really the JK was the Wrangler that us TJ guys were wanting. The JK is hi lined, flat bellied, and has beefier Dana 44's, among other things.

Yep! Looks like I will be looking at a JK in the future to replace my TJ or maybee add to the inventory
Notice how shallow the hood is? Is it just a coincidence that the AEV hi-hoods were about the same height when cut on the TJ?
Notice the body line, (Red Arrows) the fender runs all the way up to the cowl. Is it just a coincidence the AEV hi-line fender did the same thing on the TJ?
Notice (Blue Arrows) that that isnt much body panel left at all where the wheel well meets the top of the fender. Very similiar to the AEV TJ hi-line fenders. Coincidence?
Both the JK hood and TJ hood even follow the similar side contour as it grows shallower and shallower as it gets closer to the grill...coincidence?

notice how the thread title says JK and JL and not JKU and JLU??
that's because there is no such thing as a fortunate wrangler with 4 doors

Fortunate JL of the day? That's easy... my wife's because it started us in Wrangler culture. She got the new JL and it birthed my LJ nine months later (no joke). Best vehicle decision we ever made. Have met great people have had great road trips and off road trips and we are broke... lol.
There are plenty of nice ones out there.notice how the thread title says JK and JL and not JKU and JLU??

A few of my JK before I got rid of it and replaced it with a 2016 Tacoma and a 2005 LJ.
Hopefully nobody thinks it belongs in the "unfortunate" thread

I know this sounds crazy...but the JKU/JLU 4-door Wrangler is the perfect canidate for a 2-door Wrangler.notice how the thread title says JK and JL and not JKU and JLU??

Of course there is always the JKL that can be built. A two door JK that sits at a 106 inches wheelbase.
Much better than a four door.

Lol, pretty close to being wings. Failed inspection over here in NH for my 13.50 Toyo tires sticking too far out, so had to grab some extended flares.
The JK replaced the TJ, the JL placed the JK.
If you wanted a “modern” TJ the JL is a fine choice IMO.
