The square headlights were an offshoot of the roll-over scare that 60 minutes created back in the early '80s. The marketing genius' behind the YJ design decided that square headlights gave the appearance of a less "tippy" vehicle. Those same marketing bone-heads were also the genius's behind putting track-bars on the YJs as well.
LOL, are you serious!? I had no idea until you just told me. A less "tippy" vehicle? What a joke!
Why are track bars bad on the YJs? I know nothing about YJs, so this is all news to me.
