I have a five nine. This video captures my thoughts. Simple time then and these made big power then. I remember racing one in a built fox body and it was stock in ‘98. I won but it was less than a door handles worth. Those days are so far gone now….sad

I have a 5.2 and the 5.9 work for Chrysler for many years believe it or not you can actually put more power into the 5.2 and it's more reliable especially after all the work I did to mine with the 508 cam amazing

The interior was a huge upgrade in the 5.9, it was calf grain leather! My father and I both had zjs, mine was a 97 limited 5.2 and my dad has the 5.9, and the difference in the leather is night and day

Attainable dream car has gotta be a 5.9, right now I own a 1995 5.2l orvis edition. Maybe look into an Orvis video? Thought they were pretty cool and for 1995 my Orvis edition has all power seats and all power windows...

I love my restored 90 4wd 2dr. Owned a TJ before i snagged and fixed it. XJ's and TJ's are the last true jeeps we've had. Sure the Renix system is temperamental, but most dudes deal with a temperamental wife and don't put much thought process into everyday life and are impulsive as is so i can understand its not for everyone. Renix is quite easy actually, compared to my 88 BMW 325is. No I cant scan my 90's codes, but i can mentally read if something is wrong. Idle is a little funny? Check the air filter, throttle body and throttle cables. Mpg dip? Check injectors, fuel pump, injectors and fuel filter

I have a 98 Cherokee I rescued from service lot purgatory. I fixed it up and have spent the last 2 years modding and restoring it. I prolly spend way too much money and time on it but its taken me from the tops of mountains to work and everything in between. Has 170k on it and hasn't let me down despite my addiction for beating the hell of it. Long live the XJ🙌

Great video and research. I've owned four of these ZJs. 2 5.9s one of them new. I don't know what it is about these Jeeps in particular but every videos comment section just turns into just a bunch of misinformation and people that have no idea what they're talking about. I even had a guy tell me that the 3.6 pentastar would smoke my ass 🤤😂🤣

I found a loop hole within a race between the Mitsubishi pajero Evo and the jeep grand cherokee 5.9 limited. The pajero had a 7.4 second 0-60 and a top speed of 130mph. But test show it actuality had a 0-60 of 6.4 seconds and a top speed of 138 mph. This was due to the gentlemans agreement. But compared to jeep manufacturers saying the jeep had a 0-60 of 6.8 seconds and a top speed of 124 mph.

I just bought a 1998 Limited in the UK 2 days ago for £1800. It's in mint condition but has a coolant leak. The previous owner took delivery of a new Land Rover Defender and doesn't have the space on his drive. I've wanted one of these for years and now It's reality 😊

Companies "beg" to have their ads on race cars? I guess racing teams just have money pouring from their asses and corporate sponsorships are more annoying than anything

Correct. There’s this company called Red Bull, they’ve made a pretty big deal out of the whole racing thing. Sure just one example, but large companies always fight to sponsor the winning teams. You don’t have to agree, but the opinions I submit are not far-fetched.
