Jeep Wrangler Door Removal Instructions

A tough mini-sport utility vehicle, the Jeep Wrangler got its start in 1987. Chrysler began producing the World War II inspired powerhouse all-terrain vehicle at the Chrysler Brampton Ontario Canada plant. Production was later moved to Toledo, Ohio. Early models, 1987 to 1995, were commonly known as the YK. Models produced from 1997 to 2006 were referred to as TJ. Initially, the Wrangler came as a two-door convertible or as a two-door convertible truck. Today, the Wrangler has evolved into more than the original all-terrain vehicle of the last century, but also as a safe reliable family car of the 21st century.
