1985 Jeep Cj7, Frame Off Restoration, Amc 360, Dana 44, T-176, Very Nice Jeep! on 2040-cars
Burton, Ohio, United States
I recently finished a frame off restoration on an 85 CJ7. This Jeep is immaculate. I have listed the details below. I have been involved in Jeeps for 20 years and I have to say, this is one of the nicest Ive seen. If times were different, I would keep it for myself. Im not trying to sell when I say I truly impressed myself with this build. On the highway and around town, this Jeep is an absolute blast to drive. Here are some specs:
The interior is black denim and all brand new Bestop seats - front reclining, rear fold and tumble Both axles have been rebuilt with all new seals, gears, and bearings Dana 44 in the rear New brakes all around New stainless brake lines New fuel lines New wire harness (painless) All new Stainless Steel trim New tilt steering column All new guages New paint New bestop supertop with two piece soft doors and tinted windows 33x12.5 mickey thompson MTZ tires (5 of them) 15x10 mickey thompson classic II wheels Rear tire swing out carrier Rebuilt AMC 360 bored .30 over mild cam from Edelbrock Edelbrock intake New Holley 4 barrel carb HEI ignition New clutch t-176 4 speed Transmission All new u-joints Power brakes Power steering In-frame headers Custom dual exhaust with hooker mufflers exits the rear Fiberglass body/fenders/windshield frame Steel hood/grill frame sandblasted and coated with POR 15 rust protection New 4wd Hardware 4 lift New tuffy security console with stereo New windsheild I started with a bare frame and built the Jeep from there. Every nut and bolt has been replaced with new. The frame is spotless. Im not sure what else I can say about it at this time. If you want more pictures of anything, let me know. I have shipped Jeeps before and am willing to negotiate sale price with that cost in mind. I also dont mind helping with the logistics of that process. If you are fairly close, I would also consider delivering it.

Jeep Liberty replacement takes shape
Wed, 16 Jan 2013Now that the Liberty has left us for greener pastures, it's time to start looking into the future of the midsize Jeep model. The next all-new vehicle for the off-road brand will be the SUV you see here, effectively replacing the Liberty, and not necessarily carrying on with that name.
From the sides, the prototype you see here sort of looks like a miniature version of the handsome Grand Cherokee, albeit with a bit more in the way of body sculpting. Up front, the seven-slat grille will be front and center, with completely revised headlamp designs that are reportedly angular and sweep well into the front fenders (you can sort of see what we're talking about in the side profile). That doesn't sound very Jeep-like, but we'll reserve judgment until we, you know, see the thing.
The bigger question with the Liberty replacement will be whether or not its off-road chops will be up to snuff. After all, the two previous generations of Liberty models were body-on-frame traditional SUVs, whereas this new Jeep rides on a larger version of the Dodge Dart platform.
Chrysler taking big risk snubbing NHTSA
Wed, 05 Jun 2013Maker Insists Feds Overstate Risk Of Fires With Grand Cherokee, Liberty Models
It's not often that recall stories make it above the fold, in that old newspaper parlance, but when one shows up as the lead story on the network evening news programs, you know it's something big.
And so it is with Chrysler snubbing its nose at a request by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to recall 2.7 million Jeeps the feds insist are at risk of potentially catastrophic fuel tank fires in a rear-end collision.
Chrysler recalls small number of 2013-2014 cars and trucks over engine debris
Thu, 12 Dec 2013Chrysler is recalling a small number cars over issues with their 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. The recall, which affects 522 examples of its 2013 Dodge Avenger and Chrysler 200 models, as well as 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot CUVs has to do with potential debris in the balance shaft bearings.
The abrasive stuff can cause the oil pressure to drop, which could lead to the engine stalling or outright failure. This situation could at best leave drivers stranded and at worst lead to a crash.
Chrysler will begin notifying owners, who will need to report in to have the balance shaft module replaced. All repairs are naturally free of charge. Scroll down for the bulletin from NHTSA.
