Selling My 84 Jeep CJ7, I really planned on keeping it and building as I went, but career change, time, etc, best choice is to let her go.

It has a 4wd hardware fiberglass tub, and a original rust free metal fenders, hood, grille, and windshield frame. It is camo wrapped with an expensive kit in Advantage Max 4HD.  There is some wrinkles in it but it still looks great and always draws attention wherever it's goes. Tub is white gel coat underneath, and hood fenders are original black paint.  Frame is very solid and has almost no rust. There was two small spots in the back that were thin, and I welded a 2"x2"  square patch over it to keep it from getting bad. ( see pics) The only other issue I had with the frame is a bunch of holes drilled toward the front, could have been from an old plow frame? I planned to just bolt or weld a plate over it, but that will be up to the buyer!

The entire drivetrain was removed from a 1976 CJ5 with only 89k original miles. 
It is an AMC 304, freshly painted, newly rebuilt carb ( receipt from mechanic), brand new Summit fenderwell headers, purple hornies side pipes. Runs Great, runs about 80 psi oil cold, and 8-10 psi on the hottest day. Never overheats. Trans is T150 3 speed, shifts great, sometimes will pop out of first gear, but I think the floor needs trimming, not necessarily an issue w/ Trans. Dana 20 Tcase. AMC 20 rear/dana 30 front 3.54 gears. It really isn't geared for crawling, but will cruise right along with traffic on the highway no problem.

Drives straight and true, had many new front end parts installed over the last few years.
Rancho shocks at all 4 corners.
All stock suspension components.
3" Body lift with metal plate to stiffen body mounts on tub.

33x12.50 Dayton timberline ATs with only about 700 miles on them.
15x10 wheels just sandblasted and powder coated black.

Has HD rear bumper, with swing out tire carrier, receiver hitch, and mounts for DRing shackles.
Full Roll Cage
Tuffy Security Console with Sony Explod CD player
Original AM radio still in uncut dash!
Marine 6x9 speakers in custom boxes that mount between cage and rear fenderwell.
HD front bumper with push bar.
New Radiator
Bestop trail max seats.
Fold and tumble back seat from a YJ.
Probably lots I'm forgetting.

Known Issues or Things to tell:

Currently running on Antique Plates. Should easily pass a PA safety inspection if you choose to go back to regular registration.
Emissions w/ headers/ side pipes will be the issue, which is why I have antique plates.
Plates will go w/ the Jeep.

Minor drips here and there, but nothing major.

All gauges work except fuel gauge.

YJ Column, and dash wiring. Headlight switch mounted where factory clock was.

YJ heater box and blower switch.. Heat works but you have to manually move levers on box, CJ to YJ cable ends are different, I'm sure something can be done to make them work. Heater core left a few drips of antifreeze on floor the other day, so figure on having to replace it. It hasn't leaked lately, but something was going on??

Rear bumper needs supports welded back to frame if you want to tow with it. The rear crossmember is thin from the factory and that's all it's bolted to right now, so it's a little wobbly  Roll cage needs tied in to frame in the front.

Fenders are mounted about an 1" to low on tub, so you may want to re drill holes and move them up to make it look spot on, it never bothered me though.

304 has a manual choke installed, so it's a bit cold blooded.

Brake master cylinder will need replaced. It's dripping out of the back seal, not real bad, and ive been driving it like it is, but will need it soon.
(Manual brakes)

Everything works, and battery is new, and if it sits for a month it will still start right up, but wiring is a little messy, if you want it perfect

I have a factory original Kayline soft top with doors for it. It's in great shape, with just about a 1" crack on drivers window, from kids leaning something on it in garage. I have never had it on the jeep, and it looks like its never been used! I'm fairly sure all hardware bows, etc are there.

Whatever extra parts I can find for it.

Best top bikini top. ( black)

** I also have a new in box Howell fuel injection system, that was over $1200 new, and a complete painless wire harness brand new. I am not including them as of now, but if the auction goes high enough, I will, or ill offer the buyer a great deal on them.

** Also have a T176 4 Speed, and a Dana 300 with under 100k miles,  that I was going to install. Again not included right now, but will include them if auction goes high enough, or will make a great deal to buyer if wanted.

** If anyone wonders**  If Jeep Hits $4500 or better,  I will include the Howell fuel injection, and the T176/Dana 300. 

It's not a show jeep by any means, but it's a great driver, needing only some minor issues worked out. It can be a great trail jeep or a hunting rig too.

I've tried to list everything I know about it, and will answer any questions to the best of my ability.

I have receipts for many of the parts/work, not all but quite a few. 

I will work with a shipper, but arrangements are up to buyer.

I can put it on my trailer and deliver it, within reason, but price/ arrangements must be made in advance.

You can probably drive it home too, but I haven't had it on more than a 200 mile trip.

It's listed as 1980, because for some reason eBay will not accept my vin#

The jeep is a wide track 1984, titled as 1984, and the vin# is 
1jcum87a7et104475
If you need it

No reserve!

Freak accident during Jeep demonstration turns fatal

Mon, 20 May 2013

A 20-year-old woman was killed in Edmonton, Canada on Satuday, reports CTV News, in a freak accident resulting from a rollover during a Jeep demonstration. As part of a fundraising enthusiast event called "Jeeps Go Topless," the driver of one Jeep Wrangler drove up and onto the top of the tire of another.
CTV reports that the owner of the topmost Jeep then switched the vehicle off, posed for pictures and then dismounted from his vehicle. His movement off of the Jeep apparently caused it to tip over, crushing a woman who was on top of an adjacent vehicle. Edmonton police are currently investigating more fully what caused the parking lot accident to occur. Scroll below to watch the CTV News video report about this tragic incident.

Four Wheeler crowns Ultimate Factory 4x4... who wins?

Thu, 15 Nov 2012

Nearly every automaker doing business in the SUV or pickup truck segments offers a package designed to improve the off-road capabilities of its wares. But, of course, not all such factory kits are created equal. How, then, to separate the wheat from the chaff? Gather each of them up and put them through their paces, naturally.
The folks from Four Wheeler and PickupTrucks.com joined forces to run just such a comparison test, with the winner named the Ultimate Factory 4x4. A total of seven vehicles showed up to the fight: the 2012 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, 2013 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, 2012 Nissan Frontier PRO-4X and Xterra PRO-4X, 2012 Ram Power Wagon, and 2012 Toyota 4Runner Trail and Tacoma TRD T|X Baja Series.
With the contestants in place, the whole crew put each vehicle through a battery of tests that included skidpad and acceleration measurements, a hillclimb, a rocky stairstep course and a rock garden. Considering the nature of the beasts, on-road ride and comfort were not part of the routine.

2014 Jeep Cherokee musters 22 MPG city, 31 highway

Thu, 05 Sep 2013

Production and media drive delays included, there has been no lack of press surrounding the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. With the most recent delay reportedly due to powertrain calibrations, we've been waiting to see how the Cherokee's fuel economy looks against the highly competitive compact CUV segment. Thanks to the EPA, we now know the fuel economy figures for the newest member of the Jeep family.
Arguably, the Cherokee has the most modern powertrain in its class with an updated base engine, all-new V6 and all-new nine-speed automatic transmission, but its fuel economy figures are simply on par for the segment. Still nothing to scoff at, though. According to fueleconomy.gov, front-wheel-drive Cherokee models with the base four-cylinder mill will top out the lineup with 22 miles per gallon in the city and 31 mpg on the highway; opting for four-wheel drive with this engine drops the figures to 21 city and 28 highway. Get even crazier with the option list, and the new 3.2-liter Pentastar V6 will get you 19 mpg city and 28 mpg highway in two-wheel-drive form or 19 city and 27 highway for 4WD.
If you're wondering how that stacks up among compact CUVs, head on over to Automobile Magazine for a full fuel economy breakdown for the segment. The controversially styled crossover hits dealers this month, and we'll be driving it in just a couple of weeks.
