Yea you shoulda seen the accident of a newer 4 door i saw the other day.. some suv hit him in the rear and the wrangler didnt even have body dmg i kid you not lol from what i could see. But the other car the entire front end was caved in.. that car was easily totaled and i was shocked at the dmg that newer wrangler caused..

It was like taking a empty soda can to your head.

My moms 98 4.0 Zj got rear ended once at a red light i was in it. The guy slipped his foot on the brake so he claimed and only hit us at maybe 5-10mph.. my moms bumper cover was scuffed and his car the headlights and hood was caved in and bumper was broken.

The ZJ uses the same type of plastic bumper cover the wranglers have... At least the unpainted laredos. I noticed the laredo bumper cover is some sort of very flexable but solid plastic that can take impacts and only get scuffed or dented which can poped out because its like a plastic soda bottle... The limiteds like my 5.9zj use a very hard and brittle bumper cover that shatters and cracks like glass, i think because they are painted and the flexable covers like the wranglers and laredo grand cherokees cant be painted i noticed

I'm in the camp that believes that Chrysler screwed everything up. Better build quality maybe, but they didn't have an original thought in their head and only made an honest go of it by using the plans that AMC had already drawn for them. It only took 20 years of the public screaming for a 4 door Wrangler for them to realize that maybe they should build one. And the public has been screaming for a Wrangler based truck for the same amount of time, and maybe now they're getting around to building one...

I could get some from an 82. I dont know if they work but i could get them from a local JY about 15 min away.

However they should sell motors at teamgrandwagoneer.com

Try asking for a hydraulic hose for your windshield wipers on a 1966 T Bird. You get the wipers are vac or electric they cant be hydraulic. Wont get into the deck lid or top fun
