Best platform
Want to see what comments I can round up for which Jeep platform is all around better to start with for a semi-serious not overly aggressive off road machine? I now own a 97 xj DD and 96 zj that can go either way.

XJ all the way! Lmao
I know quite a few Jeeps that are good off road
-XJ
-ZJ
-WK/WK2
-CJ
-TJ
Probably some others, but these are the ones I've seen do well off-road

The XJ is smaller, lighter and is usually less expensive to build. My bro-in-law bought a '97 GC and has regretted it since he had to start fixing stuff. He also can't get into the same places I can with my XJ.

xj and upgrade the good parts from the zj like rear disk brakes, brake booster, fan clutch, power steering pump, gas tank skid, tie rods and a few others in there that will make a great xj
