kinda of dumb question. are all jeep cherokees xj i have a 96, it doesnt say sport clasic or nothin

 

All Cherokee's are XJ's.

 

You have the SE nodel if it has no other labels on it, you don't have a tach, any power options, etc. You have the base model XJ. Of course, it is possible that the first owner bought additional options on it, but I bet you have no fancy options on your SE model XJ.

xj is the model name xj - cherokee

se, sport, classic, limited is the trim level

 

All midsized box looking SUVs made by Jeep (1984 - 2001) that they called a Cherokee are considered an XJ.....no matter the trim level. I just love mine!!!!!

 

Not exactly... it depends on the year and size. The XJs were made from 1984-2001. There was also a fullsized Cherokee/Wagoneer called the SJ made between 1963 and 1991.

Then if you want to get technical, in the export market the Liberty is called the Cherokee so there is also a KJ Cherokee,

 

not sure doesnt the tow package come with biger altanater?its got the i6 4.0 high out put. but its a jeep cherokee with 246000+ miles.. cant com
plain

 

I have a '95 Laredo model and according to the ever reliable Wikipedia, mine's a ZJ. Here's a quote:

"The ZJ models, manufactured from 1993 to 1998, originally came in three general trims, the Base, Laredo, and the Limited."

Anyone ever heard of this and are these models considered "undesirable"?

I effing love my cherokee and this website!!!

Later.

 

Cherokee= XJ
Grand Cherokee= ZJ

 

Gotcha. Thanks. And "Hi" to everyone! I'm a newbie from Orangevale, CA.

 

well welcome and as you can see you can learn alot here

 

I know when the XJ's were made and I know what they are. I know what a Grand Wagoneer is as well as the pre-84 Cherokees. What does that have to do with me answering part of his question? My bad, should have put that all 84-01 Cherokee's are XJ's.

 

Yep... wasnt trying to rag on you or anything, just wanting to clarify. The OP asked if ALL Jeep Cherokees are XJs... You replied yes. Though you may know the different Cherokee years and designations it appears the OP does not. I apologize if I offended you.

No worries man. No matter what anyone says or thinks it's still very difficult to read emotion on the internet. You didn't offend me. I have stuff like this happen alot and I think I just need to type more when I reply, I never give enough detail.
