Background and Identification

Jeep is an automobile company that was established in 1941. Jeep's cars were used by the United States Army throughout World War II. However, now Jeep automobiles are a common vehicle for the everyday American. They offer a variety of makes and models, many with off-road capabilities. The Jeep Wrangler is one such model.

You can use these repair guides for all Jeep Wranglers made between 2013 and 2018. A Jeep Wrangler has two doors and a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited has four doors. Within each Wrangler and Wrangler Unlimited there are different trims. The Jeep Wrangler X (Sport) has stock options. The Sahara edition has GPS navigation and larger rims and tires. The Rubicon edition has the same options as the Sahara. However, the Rubicon is adapted for rigorous off-road driving with a stronger front axle (Dana 44), mud terrain tires, and a (4:1) lower gear transfer case.
