What could this possibly be good for?

Hey I have to stick up for the YJ's I bought mine several years ago bone stock with a 4 banger. I bought it to leave at my cabin for a fun little toy to cruse around in. At that time I was not aware of the J E E P thing. So i installed a little lift and 31's it was fun for a few years, then I added a BL and 33's. Then a re-gear and F&R ARB's, a winch, lights skid plates then In understood the Just Empty Every Pocket thing. I loved it I just got tired of the lack of power so I gave it to my son and started all over with an 05 stock Rubicon and then JEEP all over agsain.

Tow capacity is 2k lbs and the trailer alone is 1700 lbs, but OP claims he “set it up to be a tow rig” with heavy duty suspension and trailer brakes. Never mind the short wheelbase and weight difference!

I guess he modified it to take diesel too?
 
Since this thread is alive again, I just saw this on a Facebook thread yesterday.

This would actually be a decent little YJ if you slapped a set of 31s on it (tires, not wheels. 😁) and removed all the chrome tubes.
