1974 Jeep CJ-5 304 V8
This is an early model CJ-5 in great condition! If you're looking for a vintage CJ that's been well taken care of and hasn't been abused by off-road use or unneeded modifications, then look no further! Much time and effort has been given to installing only the upgrades which improve performance and handling. Thousands of dollars kept in receipts! Jeep is ready for final touches to finish the restoration. Original style and power fitted with modern upgrades to improve safety and comfort 304 cubic-inch V8 packaged with an Edelbrock four-barrel carb = incredible horsepower! New items throughout! New items include: 32 x 11.50 BFG All terrains Bestop softtop and doors Bumpers, fender flares (not on pictures) Greaseable, heavy-duty shackles (factory size) with urethane bushings Rubber body mount kit Stainless steel shock-absorbing steering shaft (Flaming River) Stainless, tiltable column (greatly improves ease of entering vehicle), also Flaming River Grant steering wheel Brakes all around- SSBC drum to disc conversion in front, drum and shoe replacement in back Clutch, transmission seals, and clutch linkage kit 2.5’’ suspension lift Seats & seatbeats Coated header wraps Battery, ignition, distributor, plugs & wires Additional info: The engine runs great and it starts right up! There was a top-end rebuild on the engine less than 500 miles ago! This job included the installation of new lifters, rods, and a slightly oversized camshaft. Other features include an Edelbrock 4-barrel, 600cfm carburetor and Headman headers. As with almost all CJ's this age, the driver & passenger floorboards were starting to rust when I bought it. I have gone through the process of treating any hint of rust. It was a three stage treatment with POR-15 products. After the rust was removed by wire brush, I applied a metal treatment (chemically removes all remaining rust), a POR-15 hardner, & a black POR-15 top coat. Again, this was only the front floorboards. The rest of bed was original paint with no flaking rust. The undercarriage, bed, and floorboards were then rolled with Herculiner for protection and cleaning ease. The original metal body is very solid. It is very hard to find an early model CJ in this condition. To the best of my knowledge, most major components of Jeep (engine, transmission, transfer cases and axles) are also all original. There is a small amount of cracking paint in various areas. This is where one layer of paint was applied over another layer. There is no fiberglass on vehicle. Any questions are encouraged to be asked prior to end of auction. |

Here's why you shouldn't try to drift a Jeep Cherokee
Tue, Nov 25 2014This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. There are many reasons why an XJ-generation (or really any other) Jeep Cherokee doesn't make for a good drift machine. It's tall, it's four-wheel-drive... it's a Jeep, okay? But someone apparently forgot to tell that to this guy. Uploaded to LiveLeak, this video shows some poor schmuck who took his Cherokee to a (mostly) empty parking lot and tried to drift it. Needless to say, things didn't go quite as he planned, but they probably went exactly as you might have expected. Thankfully, nobody appears to have been hurt. Or at least, we assume so, since the guy apparently survived to put the video up online.
Jeep Begins Fixing 1.56 Million Recalled Grand Cherokee, Liberty SUVs
Tue, Jan 14 2014Chrysler is just now beginning the big job of fixing 1.56 million older Jeep SUVs seven months after a recall was announced, according to The Detroit News. Jeep Grand Cherokees sold between 1992 and 1998 and Jeep Liberty models sold between 2002 and 2007 are being recalled because the gas tank can leak in the event of a rear-end collision, leading to a fire. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration originally requested the recall of 2.7 million vehicles. Chrysler initially disputed NHTSA's findings and seemed willing to go through a court battle until an 11th-hour deal reduced the number of vehicles involved in the recall. The remaining vehicle owners left out of the recall will receive a "customer service action" notification and may not get fixed. Chrysler says the vehicles are safe and need no repairs. Fixing the 1.56 million Jeeps will cost Chrysler $151 million. NHTSA cited 51 deaths causes by such tank fires. Chrysler plans to install protective trailer hitches to protect the gas tanks, but even the automaker admits the hitches will only provide incremental protection in a low-to-moderate speed rear-end crash.

Some Jeep Cherokees and Chrysler 200s to get standard stop-start in 2015
Wed, 25 Jun 2014Automakers the world over are striving to find ways to make their models more efficient, and Chrysler has a solution for some versions of the 2015 Chrysler 200 and 2015 Jeep Cherokee (2014 model shown). The Tigershark 2.4-liter four-cylinder in the 200 and the 3.2-liter Pentastar V6 in the Cherokee are getting a slight boost later this year thanks to the addition of Chrysler's Engine Stop-Start system as standard equipment. The company predicts modest gains - a three-percent improvement in fuel economy and a three percent reduction in CO2 emissions with the new tech compared to without it. While it's not much, those who sit in traffic a lot may see a difference.
Chrysler's stop/start system uses a high-speed starter motor to restart the vehicle in a claimed a third of a second. It works by detecting when the vehicle comes to a stop and turning off the engine. A more powerful battery maintains all of the model's accessories while it sits. When the driver lets off the brake, the car starts up again to drive away. There is even a button in the cabin to turn the ESS off, if desired.
The Jeep will be the first to receive ESS in the third quarter of this year to coincide with the start of production of the 2015 model-year version. The 200 will follow in the fourth quarter as a rolling change in production.
