Default My 05 TJ rubicon

Unfortunately a few years ago i had to sell my Jk because I had too much problems with it

So now I'm the proud owner of a 2005 TJ Rubicon automatic

I have to admit that the storage of the JKU miss me a little bit with 2kids but in general i prefer my TJ on many aspects especially the reliability

Good for you. I'll keep my jk. I, scratch that, Chrysler put nearly 20 manifolds on the three different TJs I had. Nothing on the 6 jks I've had. Plus a far more capable generation.

The TJ's have their own issues, but the exhaust manifold is really a flaw that you'll find is prevalent. I've currently got an 03 Rubi but have had a ton of TJ's in the past. They just have less electrical issues to plague us.

I sold my JK mainly due to electrical problems
That jeep was really possessed....

My manifold is ok they seems to get the problem fixed on 05-06 models

IMHO both are really good off road capabilities and a pretty good reliability but the tj is more suitable for my kind of trails

The JKU just can't handle tight trails between trees like the smallest TJ
