idk i was workin on my jeep xj and was wondering......... whats the top speed of these things? i know it'll prolly be different fer everyone.......

 

normal top speed for a stock XJ ranges between 112-116mph..

 

I think the newer models are limited to 116 mph. Don't quote me on this.

 

Mine has done pretty well up to about 85-90. I dont know about fater than that but I have to have the window down or the door will shake really bad at any speed faster than 85.

 

i have had mine up to 92 mph with a 6.5" lift and 33" tires

 

had mine up to 105, but she had more, and mines the 4banger....and 2 doors are faster of course

 

I had my '92 Laredo 4.0 up to 95-100 somewhere around there, on a two lane back road the other weekend. It had PLENTY of power left i was going to push it harder but it's best to stay on the safe side.....

 

Most will top 100 easily but why would anyone need to push a non-aerodynamic box that fast? You want speed get a Porsche.


I have seen a Jeep with a bumper sticker that said "You may be able to go fast but I can go anywhere". I like that philosophy.

 

Just add more decals to get more speed . Ive had mine up to 105 and could have kept goin if it wasent for i was about to pass a place where cops usually sit. But ya between 112-116 seems about right.

 

yea..... jist a random question, ya know?

 

I went 80 on the highway the other day.haha. It's a big box that isnt suppose to be fast.

 

ya, when i did hit that 105 mark ( i think thats it about the middle of the M on MPH) i could feel every little gust of wind almost blow me off the road, these things are not meant to be drove like this....especially if theyre lifted

 

Dam Ive only hit 95, but on 1 rear shock, no swaybars, and bad control arm bushings.

 

If you guys ever saw some of the XJs' I recovered that crashed after reaching speeds above 85, I would bet you would slow down a little . Better to get there in one piece and not in a pine box.

 

if you want speed, get a bmw 325i from the "e30" era. mine did 155 like nothing and it would go more but i was scared at that speed.
