It's a TJ Sport "wanna be" Rubicon. And if I were to guess, a it's also a 2.5L four cylinder.

Do I win a prize for being first and another one for the correct answer??

Wow! How can you tell if its a 4 banger?
In a lot of cases the 6 cylinder TJ Sport had a 4.0L sticker on the side of the Jeep. The 4 banger SE had nothing. There are also a lot of wanna be jeepers out there, even ones with built rigs that never go off road. You'll find a few of theno nothings that will put bogus decals thinking no one will notice.

Here are two examples of the 4.0L TJ and note the Font used....

yep you get 10 internet cool points for spotting a tard. i saw it in a parking lot and did a double take. drove back around and noticed the sport sticker.

i actually think someone put the sport package and stickers on a rubicon ;-)

I've seen Sport models with that font on the decal. I think the newer TJ's have that font. Can't say for certain, though.

All TJ's came with the short flare behind the fender. It is not a rocker guard, it's an extension of the fender.

My '99 TJ SE 2.5L with 31"x10.5" BFG M/T's....

Okay... I stand corrected. It looks like the TJ/LJ Rubicons did not have the fender extensions, but came with a little body armor along the bottom side, but no rock rails. I don't know what you mean by "rockers".

My friends Rubicon LJ on a trail we did last summer near Tucson....

This is my ULTIMATE LJ/TJ. Throw a hardtop on it and I'd give...well, certain body parts. :rockit:
