Customer Reviews
A great first accessory for your Jeep
This book makes great reading for new Jeep owners who are starting to feel the "Jeep Thing". It is by no means a repair manual (grab a Chiltons if you're interested in repair information), but will give you very detailed information about each area of your vehicle and provides a very detailed history along the way. For example, the chapter on winches and off-road accessories goes into great detail about the types of gears found in winches and the pros and cons of each.
Each chapter is readable on its own. So, if you happen to be interested in suspension upgrades one day and are tired of reading various Jeep catalogs, flip open to that chapter and read on.
Other reviews have pointed out that the information on the TJ is lacking. I have to agree on this point. When I originally purchased the book I was expecting a full treatment of the TJ with some additional information about previous Jeeps. In fact, the opposite is true. Information about the TJ has been added throughout the book, but the TJ isn't a main theme.
Not For TJ Owners
This is a very good general book about Jeeps. It(1998 edition) is totally lacking for TJ owners. If you are looking for specifics this is not the book for you.
To all TJ/YJ owners
Even though the newest edition says it has been updated to include up to the 1999 model, information on the YJ/TJ Wranglers is slim at best. It is only two stars for all YJ/TJ owners. This is s true CJ or classic Jeep owner book and has much info on those models. A lot info in this book is too basic. It needs severe updating for the newer models. I would rate it a four star for any CJ owner.
