DJ-3A (1955–1964)
The first of the Dispatcher Jeeps, the DJ-3A was essentially a two wheel drive version of the CJ-3A, designed for lighter-duty work not requiring four wheel drive.
DJ-5 "Dispatcher 100" (1965–1967)
Like the DJ-3A, the DJ-5 was a two wheel drive version of the CJ-5.
DJ-5A (1968–1970)
The DJ-5A was an offshoot of the DJ-5 featuring a specialized hardtop body and right hand drive steering, designed for use as a mail truck. It was also powered by a 153 in³ Chevrolet four-cylinder engine.
DJ-5B (1970–1972)
Nearly identical to the DJ-5A, the DJ-5B was differentiated by its powertrain: a 232 in³ AMC six-cylinder engine.
DJ-5C (1973–1974)
Nearly identical to the DJ-5B.
DJ-5D (1975–1976)
Nearly identical to the DJ-5B.
DJ-5E "Electruck" (1976)
A special electric version of the Dispatcher featuring an electric motor and battery pack in place of the original internal combustion engine.
DJ-5F (1977–1978)
Nearly identical to the DJ-5B. The DJ-5F was also available with the AMC 258 engine.
DJ-5G (1979)
Nearly identical to the DJ-5B. The DJ-5G was powered by a 2.0 L Volkswagen/Audi four-cylinder engine.
DJ-5L (1982)
Nearly identical to the DJ-5B. The DJ-5L was powered by the Pontiac 2.5 L "Iron Duke" engine.
FC
FC-150 (1956–1965)
The Forward Control trucks were essentially CJ-5s with a pickup bed and a flat-faced cab mounted on top of the engine. The FC-150 was mechanically nearly identical to the CJ-5.
FC-170 (1957–1965)
The FC-150 was joined by a longer FC-170 model, equipped with the Willys Super Hurricane engine.
FJ
The FJ (1961–1965) was a DJ-3A fitted with a van body with a redesigned steering and seating arrangement similar to the Forward Control trucks. The Fleetvan Jeeps were designed specifically for moving cargo. The FJ-3 (easily distinguishable by horizontal grille slots) was offered specifically as a postal truck, while a longer FJ-3A was offered for other fleet purposes.
SJ
Wagoneer (1963–1983)
The Wagoneer was designed to replace the Jeep Wagon, which had been produced relatively unchanged since 1946. It was leaps and bounds more sophisticated than its predecessor and competitors, offering modern amenities and car-like attributes such as an independent front suspension and a SOHC engine.
J-series (1963–1988)
The Wagoneer's SJ chassis was also designed for a pickup truck bed, replacing the Willys Jeep Pickup. Originally named Gladiator, the truck underwent several name changes. Originally the Gladiator models were distinguished by a three-digit model code signifying wheelbase and gross vehicle weight rating. For 1965 the model codes were changed to four digits. The Gladiator name was dropped for 1972. In 1974, the model codes were changed for the final time to a two-digit code signifying GVWR. The sporty Honcho package was a popular option on half-ton J-10s.
Super Wagoneer (1966–1969)
The Super Wagoneer was a special luxury version of the Wagoneer, featuring amenities such as air conditioning, an automatic transmission and a V8 engine as standard equipment. All of this was years prior to the existence of the Land Rover Range Rover, considered by many to be the "original luxury SUV".
Cherokee (1974–1983)
The Cherokee was added to the Jeep lineup as a sporty two-door model in 1974. A four-door body was later added in 1977.
Grand Wagoneer (1984–1991)
The Wagoneer and Cherokee were replaced for 1984 by the smaller XJ Cherokee and Wagoneer. The SJ continued on as the Grand Wagoneer, the most opulent Jeep in the range.
C101
Jeepster Commando (1966–1971)
The Jeepster Commando was introduced in 1966 to appeal to consumers seeking a less utilitarian vehicle than the CJ. Based heavily upon the CJ-5, the Jeepster Commando was available in many bodystyles, including a convertible and pickup.
C104
Commando (1972–1973)
The C101 Jeepster Commando was redesigned in 1972 by AMC in order to accommodate AMC engines under its hood. The result was the new C104 Commando (Jeepster having been dropped from the name). The new front fascia, reminiscent of the Ford Bronco, was very unpopular, and Commando was dropped after its second year.
XJ
Cherokee (1984–2001)
The most ambitious Jeep ever undertaken, the XJ (said to mean eXperimental Jeep, although the veracity of this is not well substantiated) was revolutionary in design: it was the first SUV to use a bespoke unibody chassis for more car-like performance and design attributes. The "UniFrame" chassis made the XJ light and manoeuverable, while the QuadraLink front suspension gave it excellent off-road ability. The XJ Cherokee increased Jeep sales to levels never seen before, and proved to be the single most popular Jeep of all time, with over 2.8 million units sold.
Wagoneer (1984–1990)
The Wagoneer was offered alongside the Cherokee as a more luxurious model. Exterior changes were the only discernable differences, with a different grille and optional (plastic) wood panelling.
MJ
Comanche (1986–1992)
The Comanche was offered as a pickup version of the Cherokee. It is unique in that it is one of few unibody pickup trucks ever produced.
YJ
Wrangler (1987–1996)
The Wrangler, distinguished by its square headlamps, replaced the long-lived CJ. This model carried wider track axles and a stronger frame. It had more creature comforts and later on, had the benefit of the more efficient, fuel injected engines. The last model year of the YJ included galvanized bodies and larger U-joints.
ZJ
Grand Cherokee (1993–1998)
Originally designed as the XJ's replacement, the ZJ was instead moved upmarket as the Grand Cherokee.
Grand Wagoneer (1993)
A top-of-the-line Grand Cherokee featuring more standard equipment, such as a 5.2L Magnum V8. It was dropped after one year.
TJ
Wrangler (1997–2006)
The YJ's replacement, the TJ, has been the most bold evolution of the "Universal" yet, with coil springs at all four wheels (it also returned to the circular headlights of the CJ).
WJ
Grand Cherokee (1999–2004)
An evolution of the ZJ. Its 4.7 L Powertech V8 signalled a return to SOHC engines: it was the first in a new Jeep since the Kaiser Tornado engine was dropped from the lineup in 1965.
KJ
Liberty/Cherokee (2002-2007)
The first new Jeep to feature an independent suspension since the 1963 Wagoneer, the Liberty (as it is known in North America; it goes by the name Cherokee in all other markets) replaced the XJ Cherokee in 2002.
WK
Grand Cherokee (2005-present)
Using the WJ and KJ as a springboard, the most recent WK Grand Cherokee has a greater blend of car-like ride and handling with traditional offroad capability.
XK
Commander (2006–present)
With an exterior design reminiscent of the XJ, the Commander is the first seven-passenger Jeep, pushing the brand into market waters never before treaded.
JK
Wrangler (2007–present)
The new JK Wrangler includes a 3-piece hardtop roof and a 4-door bodystyle. It uses Chrysler's 3.8 L V6 engine.
MK
Compass/Patriot (2007-present)
KK
Liberty (2008-present)
