1984 Jeep Cj 7, Light Roll, Needs Repair on 2040-cars
Bennington, Nebraska, United States
1984 Jeep CJ 7. Jeep had a light slow side roll over once and landed on all 4 tires. I bought the Jeep this way and will restore it if it doesn't sell. I will try to represent Jeep as honest as possible, but keep in mind it will need some work before it is road worthy. It is a project, but well worth it. 258 6 cylinder with 4 speed. Still starts runs and drives great and everything is operational including 4 wheel drive. Everything works as it should including the gauges. Has lockouts on front end. Very clean undercarriage. 141,397 miles. Power steering and brakes. Best top soft top and doors were not damaged in roll over and are in very good shape with no tears and clear windows. No hardtop, black soft top and soft doors only, top of doors can be removed so you can have half doors. Factory light brown high back bucket seats with Best top replacement seat covers are in very good shape with no tears or wear marks, back seat is good also. Factory aluminum side trim, peeling red paint on them, and factory steps. Detachable faceplate Sony CD player with external port. Locking hood lock, locking glove box and locking gas cap, have keys for all those locks. Swing out spare tire carrier. Has tailgate with embossed Jeep logo. Renegade steering wheel. Jeep has very minimal surface rust with solid body, floors and frame. Factory original paint on interior floor boards, firewall and inner fenders, and underneath fenders and undercarriage. Factory original unmodified motor and drive train. Missing some smog equipment but this does not affect the way it runs. Starts runs and drives excellent. Brakes work like new. It will probably need a new key ignition switch as I noticed you can start it without the key and you can remove the key once it's started, tumblers probably worn out. Spent most its life in Texas and Virginia. The guy I bought it from owned it for over 10 years.Well maintained and garaged most it's life. I recently purchased it as a project, but like most, I have too many projects so I thought I'd offer it for sale before I start working on it. 4 inch body lift with decent 32" B F Goodrich All Terrain TA tires and painted silver factory Jeep wheels. Over $ 683.00 spent on brakes before accident including new master cylinder, 2 new front brake calipers and pads, 2 new front brake lines and bleed entire brake system. I have receipt from mechanics shop for brake work. Original color on Jeep was light almond as seen on the firewall, interior floor boards and undercarriage. Most the damage was done to the front fenders, hood and windshield frame and cowl, and there are some wrinkles on sides of body that will need to be straightened out. The back of the jeep has minor damage. It will need need front bumper, 2 front fenders, hood, hood hinges and locks, windshield and windshield frame, windshield hinges, some cowl repair, new passenger mirror, 4 fender flares although I think the 2 rear flares can be repaired, and misc body work and paint. The windshield frame is bent back and there is a 2" x 4" holding the windshield frame forward. I did this so I could show the top. Could be a fun inexpensive project. There appears to be no frame damage, again this was a very light slow rollover. Clean and clear Nebraska title in my name. Clean Car Fax. Too good of a Jeep to part out. Very good value for the money. No leaks and does not smoke. I have right and left good used fiberglass front fenders and a steel hood that could be purchased for an additional cost. These items are not included in the sale price of this Jeep. I reserve the right to end auction early as it is for sale locally as well. I will try to help to arrange shipping if needed but shipping will be the buyers expense in addition to vehicle cost. If you have any questions or need more detailed pictures please let me know. You are more than welcome to inspect in person and I would encourage that. It will be sold as is with no warranty. These CJs are getting harder to find in original condition with little to no rust. Thank you for your interest.

NHTSA closes investigation on 4.7M FCA power modules, no recall
Thu, Jul 30 2015FCA US hasn't had the best time with recalls as of late. Not only did the company recently agree to greater safety oversight and paid $105 million to the government, that came just days after hacking fears prompted a 1.4-million model recall campaign. However, a recent decision to close an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration means that the automaker doesn't have to worry about another major recall possibly affecting 4.7 million vehicles, according to the agency's report (as a PDF). Last September, the Center for Auto Safety petitioned NHTSA to investigate an alleged problem with the totally integrated power module (TIPM) on these FCA US models. The group claimed that a fault with the component could cause a variety of maladies, including stalls, not starting, catching fire, unintended acceleration, and airbag non-deployment. At the time, it also submitted 70 cases where this had reportedly happened. According to NHTSA, "no valid evidence was presented in support of claims related to airbag non-deployment, unintended acceleration, or fire resulting from TIPM faults and these claims were found to be wholly without merit based on review of the field data and design of the relevant systems and components." The agency did find signs of an issue with the fuel pump relay in some Jeep Grand Cherokees and Dodge Durangos, but FCA US issued recalls for the problem in September 2014 and February 2015. Without anything else to go on, the Feds don't think it's worth investigating this topic any more.
FCA believes thieves aren't getting into Jeeps with laptops
Mon, Jul 11 2016Last week, we reported on an incident where thieves stole a 2010 Jeep Wrangler from an owner's driveway in Houston, TX with nothing but a laptop. While the security footage made it seem like the perpetrator hacked into the vehicle, we had a conversation with FCA's senior manager of security architecture Titus Melnyk who set the record straight. According to Melnyk, the thief in the video isn't using the laptop to get into the vehicle, but rather as a means of coding a blank key fob and then using that fob to get into the Jeep. According to Melnyk, the suspects have gained access to a key programming tool, which allows them to pair blank key fobs to FCA vehicles. With the key fob now coded, the suspects can get into the vehicle and drive away. The thieves, believes Melnyk, have acquired the programming tool through a dishonest dealership or locksmith. Since the suspects are using a process designed to be used (honestly) by dealers, FCA doesn't consider this to be hacking and believes that there are no security flaws in the vehicles. How are the thieves getting key fobs? While Melnyk believes it is possible to recode an existing key fob, he points out that it's much easier to purchase a blank key fob on Ebay for less than $25. FCA is working closely with the Houston Police Department to apprehend the suspects. Related Video: Jeep Technology SUV Videos viral video hacking thieves
2016 Jeep Wrangler to ditch solid axles to save weight?
Tue, 29 Oct 2013Hey, Jeep fans. If you think the idea of a funky-looking, car-based Cherokee revival is offensive, have a listen to what might be in store for the next-gen Jeep Wrangler. Automotive News is reporting that as Jeep develops the 2016 Wrangler, weight reduction is a crucial target, and the Wrangler's rugged solid axles could be sacrificed in the name of better fuel economy.
We've already heard the next Wrangler will go on a serious diet using aluminum body panels and an air suspension system, so the idea of a four-wheel independent suspension setup for this OG SUV isn't all that surprising. Besides, it's not like an independent suspension would limit the Wrangler's off-road abilities - just check out the Hummer H1. In fact, it might be the aftermarket parts companies - not Wrangler enthusiasts - who would be most disappointed by such a drastic suspension change, as the article states that the Wrangler's solid axles and coil-link suspension make it the most popular SUV for customization.
There are probably still a couple years before we'll start hearing any concrete details about the 2016 Wrangler, at which time it will be interesting to see how stricter fuel economy and crash safety regulations have been balanced with traditional Wrangler cues like its removable doors and roof and folding windshield. Let us know in the comments below if a Wrangler sans solid axles is any less of a Wrangler.
