[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 439991, member: 18789"] I don't think it's correct that they were produced into mid 96 or 96 at all...they did produce a ton of 95s from September 94 until December 95. Nearly double the numnber of YJs from any other year. I think legally they were forced to quit making YJs by Dec 31, 1995, because all 1996 model year vehicles (and anything produced in 96 regardless) had to meet OBDII which the YJ of course did not. As far as I'm aware (did some research on this not long ago), the YJ could not legally be built in 96. So I'm not sure where the 53K number comes from but it shouldn't have been 95's built in 96. Then they did start the 97 TJ in January 1996 and I think they hit dealers in March 1996. Pretty sure the first few weeks of January were paused as they switched over from YJ to TJ, but otherwise that was it. TJ from then on out. The 53,000 number might be the number of late 95's that were still 95 but had the TJ parts (TJ motor with 0630 head, hood bumpers, rear bumper instead of bumperettes, etc). [/QUOTE]
