Reputed to be the best Road and hill-climb CJ ever made, I'm the second owner--since 1988. Not desert, but it's always been in arid regions until I now brought it back home. About 12,000 miles ago (just under 191,000 total now), I gave the rig to Fred's paint/body shop, then to Motor Masters, then went through the entire drive train with an officer of the NW 4-Wheel Drive Club. My only instructions were to "go through it thoroughly in detail and repair or replace anything you find wrong or worn." They/We did, including a completely rebuilt engine, new efficiency carb (when trying to get the best I could, I got 25 mi/gal), new exhaust system, all brakes, only 1 gear showed wear and was replaced, replaced any body metal as needed prior to paint, rhino lined inside cabin & bed, complete custom paint, only 1 seat panel needed, then TUFF seat covers with front & rear pockets plus one hidden within driver reach, installed a dbbl-lock security console, fog & reverse lights, secured sound system in which only the remote control shows, marine carpeting w/ mud mats, bikini, safari, tonneau & spare tire covers, nerf bars and a rear bumper with frame-strengthened hitch (3/16 &1/4 " steel). Now getting old with most every joint hurting or replaced, I'm into comfort, and when I got a Polaris to run the horse trails with my dog and grandchildren, my wife and I agreed, if you know how that goes, to only have one baby left around here (56 Dodge). I gave the same instructions to my current mechanic and bodyman I did before. Here's what's left now that they have checked her out: There is a curb scuff on a tire, a 1/4" tear in the dash, replace one bed snap for the tonneau, sno wheels need repaint & factory chromes have some pitting, surface (only) rust underneath on the frame(not body), a small ding on the right door interior (I couldn't get it to show in a picture) and the standard inside crack in the plastic on both doors just under the window. The gearshift boot tore last month, and I'll order a new one of those. To perfect the rig now, I would replace the window insulation/seals and duplicate the HD bumper to the front as is now in the rear. I cut the metal for this but never welded it together. Occasionally tighten the HD valve cover to prevent oil leak. I put a new battery in her and muffler/tailpipe. You have one more season or more on the tires depending on the miles you drive. Besides the metal for the bumper, I have a couple of seats that could be mounted in the bed if you like the idea--we could work something out. Look at the pictures. Tell me by email if you want more. If EBay doesn't automatically include an auto check history, I can send one of those, too. I won't ship it, but I would work with your shipper--after bank certification of payment. Fair? Thanks for your interest. Whether you win or not, I hope you enjoy the auction.

Jeep gives a trio of customs an encore showing at SEMA

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

While Jeep certainly had some new customs on display at this year's SEMA show, it wasn't afraid to recycle a few that people might have missed from earlier this year. The maker of many beloved off-roaders already displayed the Jeep Cherokee Dakar, Maximum Performance Wrangler and Wrangler Mojo at the 2014 Easter Safari, but they all made it to SEMA for an encore.
Based around the Trailhawk, the Cherokee Dakar (pictured above) imagines an even more off-road-capable version of the crossover. The concept wears a mix of Silver Steel Stain paint with Flame Red graphics and rides on 17-inch wheels wrapped in 33-inch BFGoodrich Mud Terrain tires. To back up the rugged look, the Dakar is fitted with rock rails and skid plates protecting the oil pan, front suspension, fuel tank and other underbody parts. It also sports prototype parts from Jeep Performance Parts, including a lift kit and fender flares.
The Wrangler is one of the paragons of off-roading, and as the name suggests, the Maximum Performance Wrangler concept is meant to be the ultimate example of what it can do. The custom features locking Dana 60 axles front and rear, a 4:1 Rock-Trac transfer case, prototype 4-inch lift kit and 37-inch Mud Terrain tires over beadlock wheels. To stay on the trails well into the night, a bar of LEDs is mounted above the windshield. And finally, the Mopar Blue exterior kind of makes the vehicle look like the world's toughest blueberry.

Chrysler delays 2014 Jeep Cherokee media launch

Tue, 30 Jul 2013

Chrysler is making the unusual move of delaying the first media drives of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, which were slated to start next week in Seattle. And while something like this is a rare occurrence, and one that most of the Autoblog staff can't recall happening this publicly or so close to the event itself, it won't effect the actual on-sale date of the new Cherokee, which is set to hit showrooms in September.
"Over the last couple of weeks during final quality and durability testing, we have discovered the opportunity to further improve powertrain calibration," Chrysler told Automotive News. This marks the second notable delay in the Cherokee's short life, after production was delayed for roughly a month earlier this summer.
Still, we'd rather Chrysler make sure the Cherokee is ready for primetime before flying media in from around the country. It shows a willingness to get things right the first time, rather than offering media drives and then tweaking the car after the fact.
