It runs excellent drives straight shifts as it should and stops. All the Lights function as they should, wipers work/washer works, horn, radio, all Gage's accept the speedo work (Tcase needs a speedo and true mileage unknown) the heat worked fine and the blower worked as it should however, the previous owner bypassed the heater when replacing a broken coolant line. Everything else works great. This is a 38 year old highly modified jeep it IS driven daily weather permitting however it ISN'T a highway machine by any means! It's a used jeep built for off-road and it has been used as such...it is far from mint! Now the fun stuff....

Please remember this isn't a show vehicle nor is it in mint condition it's 38 years old and been wheeled plenty! It's been well built and runs well it should go to someone who isn't afraid of turning wrenches and or getting muddy!
I'm sure there is more I'm forgetting. The frame is in excellent shape with zero rust or rot. The tub is in good shape with some minor surface rust. The front fenders have some small rust spots. This is not a rust bucket again it spent most of its life out west. The paint is far from perfect and there are many small dings and dents...please look carefully at all the pictures if you have any doubts. This jeep has been to Moab many times and has wheeled a few local spots here in North Carolina as well. I'm looking to build another TJ or LJ...I'm a jeep guy and I've had them all! I may be interested in a trade as well for a TJ or LJ. I've shipped vehicles before it's not difficult and I'd be happy to work with your shipper to make things easy (shipping is on your dime) Please check my feedback I've sold more than a few vehicles to happy buyers. I've listed this to the best of my ability and the jeep is sold as is with no warranties expressed nor implied. Please don't waste my time eBay isn't a game!

FCA spends $1.5 billion to retool plant for Ram production
Tue, Jul 26 2016Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) is planning to invest $1.48 billion to retool its Sterling Heights Assembly plant in metro Detroit to build the next generation of the Ram 1500. The investment will allow the assembly plant to go from unibody to body-on-frame construction. FCA also confirmed that production of the Chrysler 200 will end in December in order for the plant to be altered. As previously reported, FCA is looking to move production of the 1500 from its current assembly plant in Warren to the Sterling Heights Assembly plant (both are in Michigan). While FCA has not released any official plans for the Warren Truck Assembly Plant, Automotive News reports that the plant will be retooled to manufacture the Jeep Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer SUVs. Earlier this month, FCA announced plans to invest $1.05 billion to retool the Jeep Wrangler factory. FCA's current investment plans are part of the automaker's push to put competitive products on the road.

Build a Jeep Gladiator 392 next? The Hummer H3T Alpha blazed the trail
Tue, Nov 17 2020The 2021 Wrangler Rubicon 392 will combine the go-anywhere capability of a Jeep's iconic off-roader with the grunt of a V8 for the first time in decades. As cool as that is, we can't help but think Jeep is missing out on a huge opportunity to pair that 470-horsepower, 6.4-liter Hemi V8 with the Wrangler's pickup cousin, the Jeep Gladiator, in the form of a Mojave 392. Autoblog took part in a media Q&A session with Jeep ahead of the Rubicon 392's announcement in which the company's product higher-ups said that there are currently no official plans to build a 392 variant of the Gladiator pickup. But whether or not Jeep has plans, it certainly has precedent, and from our perspective, a market. Rewind to 2008, better known as one of the worst possible years to introduce a gas-guzzling, V8-powered pickup truck. Enter the 2009 Hummer H3T Alpha, the first variant of Hummer's midsize truck/SUV hybrid to be offered with a 5.3-liter V8. The 300-horsepower small-block was an upgrade to the sturdy but relatively uninspiring 3.7-liter inline-5 that the H3 lineup had inherited from its midsize pickup platform mates. As our Jeremy Korzeniewski noted in the Rubicon 392's introductory piece, an open-top Jeep has not been offered with an optional V8 for as long as the "Wrangler" nameplate has existed. The last Jeep 4x4 to do so was still a CJ, or civilian Jeep, and the 304 cubic-inch engine came from American Motors Corporation. Incidentally, this generation of the Wrangler is also the first to be offered in a pickup variant. Cue the beard-stroking. Now, frankly, it's not even remotely fair to compare the H3T's powertrain offerings to the decade-newer Gladiator's, but the Hummer actually boasts a few advantages over Jeep's modern pickup. While most of the Jeep's off-road specs give it an edge, the Gladiator doesn't come close to the H3T's 30.1-degree departure angle, for instance. And in more practical terms, the stubbier H3T has other maneuverability advantages. The Gladiator has 3" of wheelbase and 5" of overall length on the H3T, and a 22.4-foot turning radius to show for it. The Hummer's? Just 18.5'.
