Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - More CJ than YJ or TJ
The title and cover of this particular book leads one to believe that it really does cover information for the TJ. That is somewhat incorrect. The majority of the book is geared towards the CJ. Not really a problem, just understand that if you have a TJ, this is probably not the book for you.

It is also written with heavy praise for Mopar parts and accessories.

A Chilton's Manual would probably be a better purchase.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Jeep owner's bible
very informative. the jeep history was interesting. i have 3 jeeps, so this book will be a useful tool for me.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - no step by step instructions
The information in the book is good, but when I purchased the book I expected step by step instructions on tune ups, brake changes, ect. This was not the case. There was some helpfull hints, but other than that you are on your own.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent Book
A wealth of knowledge written by not only an expert on jeeps, but a good writer as well. The information included is a must have for anyone who wants to work on their jeep.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Does not live up to its claims about Grand Cherokee coverage
This book is well written and easy to read. In parts it reads like a factory representative trying to sell Mopar parts. What I found most disappointing was the very few pages of material dealing with the Grand Cherokee ZJ chassis. There are a couple of sales literature type pages for the Grand Cherokee and an attempt to introduce the 2005 Grand Cherokee as being the most and greatest. The author's failure to provide meaningful data on Grand Cherokee engine performance, suspension up grades, discussion of the F/R disk braking system, or other performance type modifications is a great disappointment. The CJ and other "Little Jeeps" are covered in detail and with considerable attention to what is and what is not safe to do with them.
