I agree with most of what you say, run both jeeps past 200,000k and the 2.4 will still run like new it is an amazing engine, lacking horse power and torque yes but solid
I have a TJ SE 2000 with 250k miles and beat so many JK and rubicons at off-roading. the 2.5L are really tough, never underestimated them. however yeah, good video comrade, keep going!
My ‘97 TJ Sport SE has 115,365 miles on it. It obviously hasn’t been driven much and appears to have been garaged most of the time. It has a center console & factory heat and air. I got it from my son, when he bought a new Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. He put an upgraded sound system in it. I put neoprene seat covers in it, changed all the exterior lights to LED’s, customized the interior paneling & fender flares with plasti dip, added 4 cube lights (2 white & 2 amber, and also added a 52” light bar). I’m a grandpa that loves my Jeep TJ. Grandma loves riding in it too. It’s a lot of fun to drive.
I have a 98 Jeep tj se. one thing not mentioned was the gearing on the jeeps the sports will come factory with 3.73 gears while the se comes with 4.10 gears to help bridge the power gap. Really don’t notice the power difference between my Jeep that has a stock motor compared to my dads stock sport. And the center console was an option I believe most se jeeps I’ve seen have them including mine. Also the se is a better choice if you plan to swap the motor transmission and axles anyway since you can find them a little bit cheaper
Lol, this video is just getting better for me with age! I have a 4 cylinder and the value just seems to keep increasing! Thinking about the work put in, thinking about the all the fun that comes with owning a jeep! And to keep things legitimate, thinking about the jeep community! Awesome vehicals
AC delete? I have own a 2000 Sport TJ and it has AC. Probably used my AC a hand full of times if that. Hot weather means top off. Nice Jeep bro! Stay Jeep 👋
Great video. I'm new to the jeep scene. I have a 03 wrangler X with the 4.0 5spd. Mine has the center console, A/C and cruise control. Awesome looking Jeeps you guys have.
I have a 97 TJ Sport that's still my DD and I use it for mudding and offroad...I like to live dangerously...heh. When I hit about 245K miles I had to get a "new" Jasper engine because my old 4.0 started ticking really bad. I currently have 260K. I bought mine in 05 and on my build sheet it said it originally came with a spice soft top, but it was a black replacement when I bought it, and I've replaced it twice since then with black Pavement Ends and Best Top. My interior is tan and it really shows the dirt and grime. My center console doesn't have a sub woofer either, and I'm not sure if they were replacements, but my soundbar has Kenwood speakers...but the original AM/FM radio. I do have AC, but no CC.
Love your content man! Just a heads up - the American Flag is supposed to always have the stars in the top left unless it’s on a uniform or otherwise provisioned. Doesn’t matter that much, just something that Army guys like me notice!
thanks brother! Yea i kinda figured it was wrong. Im gonna get an actaul decal soon tho bc that one is kinda just a sticker. Thanks for letting me know. Thank you for your service!
KyleSVT Absolutely! I drive a 2006 TJ on 35s and love it to death....your videos are what got me set on the metal cloak fenders....now to find the money :/
Garrett Hoover when on the side the stars should always be towards the front. When on the left side of the vehicle they are on the left when on the right side they are supposed to be on the right of the flag.
GJBFilms Yes sir, exactly how we wear them on Army uniforms. Into battle they fly! 🇺🇸 And the only reason why I mention it is at the beginning of the video when you see the left side of the Jeep the stripes are facing forward. He’s probably fixed it now a month later
I have a 2005 Wrangler SE, 2.4L 6 speed. And if i'm correct it comes with the same transmission as the Sport with the 4.0. It does have a tilt wheel, does not have AC or a center console. Has softtop and half doors. Had it on 32 inch Mud terrains for the longest time but currently has stock 2011 JK wheels/tires on it. It holds its own both on the road/highway and off-road. That being said, if you have a choice definitely go with a sport or higher. I plan to do an engine swap down the line when it reaches the end of its life though, which the SE is a better option for doing that.
Fwiw, I ditched the factory console for a tuffy locking console, and glovebox. Having a softop jeep attracts a lot of opportunistic thieves. It won’t completely stop someone intent on stealing my stuff, but I don’t leave anything inside the Jeep, that I couldn’t easily replace. Hope this helps.
I'll give it until 2019 before it breaks down. Then it will be a repeating cycle of breaking down and getting it fixed, until you get fed up with it and buy a Tacoma. That's how it works most of the time
I've had two 4.0s. One I sold at around 380,000 and the other I accidentally ran out of oil due to a leak at 240,000, and it ran like new. Great motor. My daughter just got a 97 TJ 4cyl with 5spd manual. Runs like a little tractor!! I love it and hate it.
I have the same 2001 red Jeep and the same interior. Yours looks so much better than mine. My handles have rusted out and it needs new fenders. I just started to upgrade the stereo. I’m. Looking into accessories to udgrade it and make it look newish. I like your headlights. What brand did you buy?
My 99 4.0L sport came with the cheap table cloth material seats and no console. I imagine there were many variations between models depending how they were ordered.
Hi everyone. I have a 97’ Wrangler SE 2.5l 4cyl 5 speed. Was the lever for tilting the steering wheel an option on SEs? Mine has it but it is an SE not sport. Awesome videos! 👍🏼
Hey I just bought a 2001 sport TJ and have been watching your videos! I’d love to have your contact and figure out what to do with the beauty I’ve just bought. 35k miles.
Hey Kyle I really like your informational Jeep videos but when are you going to take it off road? Thats what Jeeps are for right? I drive a 98 TJ Sport.
Thanks bro! I first want to upgrade my tie rod b4 I do that, the stock one is so weak. Also I live in a very cold climate (want to offroad when its nice out so I can have the roof and doors off. Come spring/summer time I hope to find some trails to ride on with some of my other jeep buddys.
You don’t feel like you need the AC? What’s the hottest it gets where you live? I got a TJ, no AC but not having AC is making me wanna sell it. The summer here is 90-105 degrees!
Nice condition jeeps. Side note, the flag stickers on the SE are backwards. They should be stripes to the back as if they were a waiving flag in the wind.
What is the thing next to the washer fluid closest to the outside, my old jeep had it but I've gotten a new one and the space is empty and I've been wondering what it is, any thoughts?
@@chrisdavis6853 Good for you! I don't think my parents are going to let me. My dad is convinced that they will flip too easily for a young driver. Personally, I really want stick shift, but my mom refuses to learn and doesnt want to buy a car she cant drive.
@@deadlybladesmith3093 You and your dad should go test drive one. The newer Jeeps (90s and up) aren't like the early CJs, mine feels great on the road and highway. I haven't had it in snow yet though. Good luck!!
Hey Kyle I meant to ask you in the past what is the difference in reliability of the two engines and transmissions. I’m looking at getting a Jeep Wrangler tj again but have a decreased budget. I don’t really do much off-roading. But would like somewhat of a capability. Do you think a 2.5l is reliable as a 4?
My 2000 Sport doesn't have the center subwoofer or rear cup holders... Wonder if that was an option or only standard on later iterations of the TJ? Great video btw.
Man, this video answer so many questions Thank you! Also, Im looking at purchasing a TJ and could us some direction. Theres a 2001 TJ Sport with 34k miles red ext./tan interior, tan leather seats (original from factory apparently) -3 owner, no accidents, very clean. They want $16.5. Any recommendations on this? thanks again!
@@KyleSVT thanks man good to know. How many miles did you purchase on your TJ, just curious? trying to figure out how many miles is too many miles to start with.
Thanks for the vid. I recently bought a 2001 Jeep Wrangler Sport (solar yellow - my Bumble Bee) w/110,00 mi on it. I know nothing about Jeeps, so I welcome all info and comments relating to them. I do have a question for you Jeep folks. Mine has the subwoofer in the center console (doesn't work). I bought a new head unit, roll bar speakers, kick panel speakers, and a slim powered sub that I will put under the seat to give the stereo some depth. Is there anyway to replace the center console sub, or is it even worth it? Please let me know. All comments are welcome. Thanks
@@KyleSVT Thanks, Kyle. I am just gonna use the powered sub I bought and leave the broken sub in the center console. Keep up the good work, and thank you for your response.
i lied i have a plastic cover over the sub woofer hole. pulled my build sheet and it came with a 4 speaker system lol. guess i’ll have to buy a sub and amp. wonder if the wiring is in there though for easy hook up ?
I have an 03 jeep wrangler X how does that compare to these? It has the 4.0. I have also have heard it be referred as a jeep wrangler commando. Previous owners have removed all badges, and i was told it didnt come with a center console from factory
I have a tj sport with D44 and I'm pissed as hell after watching this. Why the hell didn't I get a driver seat that hinges forward like the passenger seat😫
KyleSVT it doesn't. My passenger does but driver doesn't have the lever below that the cable connects to. I bought my lady a 06' tj sport and I'm waiting til she leaves sometime to make the swap😁 commence husband ass chewing haha.
@@KyleSVT How? I tried looking for the parts but they look different. I already have the cup holder in mine, I just need the armrest. Is there a website or link to the original piece? (Not the expensive Tuffy)
Hey man, first time jeep owner here. I’m looking at a 2008 wrangler x. I’ve never owned a jeep before. I know I want a 2 door. Is the 2008 X pretty good? Are there some years to avoid? Engines also? Thanks
If I recall, the 4.0 equipped TJ usually had 3.07 gears (manual transmission) and 3.55 (auto. ) The 2.5 TJ had 4.10 gears in manual tranny models, while the auto transmission models had 3.55 gears. (There were several changes, some later year TJ's had 3.73 ring and pinions, etc...)
Probably put it in, because for my base model YJ I have a lot of the upgrades like the 4.0, center console, power steering, and A/C, but I still don't have tilt wheel or delay wipers. I requested a build sheet from Jeep and I don't recall tilt wheel being an option for mine. I could be wrong though, not too sure about TJs
Are they 16 inch wheels? I have an LJ and want to run 32’s but not have to deal with lifting,,,,rubbing etc...and those metal cloaks are hot but way too $$ considering finding rims with good backspacing...i currently have 30.9.5 15’s
Yeah, i think the 2 door looks better even though some of my friend think it looks too short. Is there enough space in the 2 door if you put the seats down in the back? Also, is the hard top or soft top better? I feel that the soft tops tend to have problems with leaks but i also feel like they are more safe than hard tops because they have no glass.
I agree with most of what you say, run both jeeps past 200,000k and the 2.4 will still run like new it is an amazing engine, lacking horse power and torque yes but solid

Does the 4 cylinder have sufficient torque to do real off roading?
I'm sure with the right gearing
If I recall, the 4.0 equipped TJ usually had 3.07 gears (manual transmission) and 3.55 (auto. ) The 2.5 TJ had 4.10 gears in manual tranny models, while the auto transmission models had 3.55 gears. (There were several changes, some later year TJ's had 3.73 ring and pinions, etc...)

KyleSVT - Whoa! Sweet link! Thanks for the info, I was way off. Goes to show, as much as I think I know, I can always learn more. ☺
Nice jeeps man, I went with a 4.0 and I was lucky enough to get the AX-15 in my TJ. I have an 06 LJ but it's an auto.
My 97 SE, has factory tilt wheel and a center console, so the only difference really are axles and engine.
interesting must be able to option it or someone put one in
I also have a '97 SE with tilt wheel (but no center console).
Probably put it in, because for my base model YJ I have a lot of the upgrades like the 4.0, center console, power steering, and A/C, but I still don't have tilt wheel or delay wipers. I requested a build sheet from Jeep and I don't recall tilt wheel being an option for mine. I could be wrong though, not too sure about TJs
My 97 SE has a center console and leather seats but no tilt wheel.
The American Flag on the SE model is going on the wrong way. It should be on the right hand side of the car. Beautiful jeeps!

My 97 se is different
Same here. My 97 SE has the center console like the sport and has a tilt steering wheel.
What size tires on the se?
32s atleast thats what I measured with a tape
KyleSVT is it lifted?
nope
Are they 16 inch wheels? I have an LJ and want to run 32’s but not have to deal with lifting,,,,rubbing etc...and those metal cloaks are hot but way too $$ considering finding rims with good backspacing...i currently have 30.9.5 15’s
Cruzster ! Those are 17s
Your sisters flag is backwards. But thanks for the video.
Thanks
2 DOOR OR 4 DOOR jeep?
I like the size of the 2 door. But 4 door has more space. depends on your needs
Yeah, i think the 2 door looks better even though some of my friend think it looks too short. Is there enough space in the 2 door if you put the seats down in the back? Also, is the hard top or soft top better? I feel that the soft tops tend to have problems with leaks but i also feel like they are more safe than hard tops because they have no glass.
nvm, just watched your in depth review
Everyone knows the SE doesn’t have AC and the 4.0
Jason Stilgebouer true mine went out!

My wife’s 97 se has ac
Man the se is so barebones

The American flag on the drivers side of your sisters Jeep is backwards
The flag on the drivers side should be on the passenger side and the flag on the passenger side should be on the drivers side
