well they all have strengths and weaknesses. but if it was me and i had it to do ove a 97 - may of 98 tj with the 4.0. they put out the most power and best airflow. after that the head castings was weak and cracked. i would say cherokee but they have a unibody that has weaknesses.as well as the grand cherokee. Now with that being said the best all around would be the rubicon with the 4.0. it has dana 44s front and rear and a good strong transfer case. its a shame chrysler went and ruined jeep with the v6,the liberty and these gawd awful soccer mom rides. maybe the company that bought them will straighten them out
out of all the jeeps in this town the d**n gremlin had to invade mine
I've done so much,with so little for so long i can practicly do anything with nothing

No doubt the Rubicon is the best right out of the factory. Big JIm <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

That being said, and true, the Rubi's are still pretty new and spendy. A 97+ TJ Wrangler is the next most capable right out of the box. And it is very capable. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
