This is a 1998 Dodge Durango SLT with a good running 5.2L engine.   It has had the fuel injectors replaced approx 2 years ago, along with a new power steering pump and water pump.    At about the same time I paid over $1200 to have the heater box pulled and the core replaced, the squirrel cage fan replaced & the AC evaporator replaced (sorry, I think that's what else was in there)-and whatever else NEEDS to be replaced when they spend 2 days of labor to do it!!!   It also had O2 sensors, crankshaft sensor & a couple others replaced prior to its last inspection.   I should have most if not all receipts.   The body is in decent shape for a 16 year old vehicle, a few parking lot dings & a couple bubble spots in paint.   The front bumper has a rust hole through it on drivers side....don't know why but it's not the 1st Durango I've seen rusted through in the same spot!!!    The interior is in pretty good shape, factory AM/FM/CD/cassette with the premium sound system, rear AC, all power, 3rd row seating...the drivers seat has a tear in it & the clip to hold the power controls to the seat broke.   

Now for the PROBLEM.    THIS DURANGO NEEDS THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED!!!!!!   Sometimes it will shift through all gears, but much of the time it stays in 1st gear.    This started right after I did the AC & last inspection/repairs 2 years ago.    I don't think there's any way around it.   IT NEEDS A TRANSMISSION!!!!    The check engine light is on & the codes are for the transmission....internal solenoids, which usually go bad when the torque converter begins to self-destruct.    Other then that, it is a good looking, good running vehicle.    (I am now into Jeep Cherokee XJ's & have neither the time nor the desire to do any work on this, my 4th Durango!!!!!  Hence the reason I wish to sell it).    

I have clean, clear NYS title in hand!!!

It is on south shore of Long Island, central Suffolk County.   I WILL NOT ship it, YOU MUST PICK IT UP or HAVE IT TOWED!!!!!    Contact me if you'd like to see it.    IT IS AVAILABLE FOR SALE LOCALLY!!!!

Chrysler readying Hellcat V8 with Viper-like power

Tue, 21 May 2013

A monstrous supercharged V8 engine could be in store for Chrysler and SRT products, if recent rumors are to be believed. Allpar is reporting that the forced-induction V8 - Chrysler's first, if this goes down - could make its debut this summer.
The story goes that the Hellcat would be based on a 6.2-liter Hemi engine, rather than on the existing 5.7- or 6.4-liter versions of the company's vaunted mill. In any case, the general consensus is that the motor will have gobs of power. Modest estimates call for between 500 to 570 horsepower, with some outliers predicting a figure as high as 600 hp. That figure would put the output would place the Hellcat awfully close to that of the 640-hp V10 in the SRT Viper, too. Allpar contends that a slightly lower powered version would allow Chrysler to keep costs below that of the more powerful Ford Shelby GT500, which might be a sweet spot.
The Hellcat could debut in a number of SRT products. SRT versions of the Charger, Challenger and 300 are all up for grabs, as is the rumored SRT Barracuda.

Junkyard Gem: 1992 Dodge Shadow America

Tue, Aug 2 2016

A quarter-century ago, most Americans looking for a cheap transportation appliance went for cars like the miserably-stripped-down-but-bulletproof Toyota Tercel or the feature-laden-but-reliability-challenged Hyundai Excel. Chrysler, having just discontinued the elderly "Omnirizon" platform, took the Dodge Shadow and its Plymouth sibling, the Sundance and offered a car that was bigger, more powerful, and better-equipped than just about anything else for the price: the America! These cars depreciated hard and nearly all were crushed a decade ago, so sightings are extremely rare today. Here's one that I found in a Northern California self-service yard. This one still had windshield paperwork indicating that it was an insurance-company auction car (probably totaled in a fender-bender that caused $200 worth of damage) and that it was a runner at the time it got junked. Such is the fate of 24-year-old economy cars in rough shape. The Shadow was a member of the many-branched K-Car family tree, and the Shadow America came with the same 2.2-liter straight-4 engine that powered millions of Caravans, Daytonas, New Yorkers, and Lasers. You got more torque than the competition, plus a driver's-side airbag instead of the maddening automatic seat belts found in other low-priced cars of 1992. Of course, the paint tended to peel off within a few years and the build quality of the Shadow was hit-or-miss, but these cars were way nicer to drive than, say, a Tercel EZ or Subaru Justy.
