Canton, Texas, United States
|
Not available in the domestic civil market, the CJ-10 was a 1/2- or 3/4-ton Jeep with square headlights (such as those found in the later Wrangler) and a nine-slot grille unusual. They are often seen in CJ10 to were locked in the factory low range and only fender mounted headlamps featured. The CJ-10A, also known as Flightline Tow Tractor, was a reliable hitch used for towing planes on runways around the world. The U.S. Air Force bought most of the CJ-10As. The CJ-10A was produced from 1984-1986. There are several forums where people have easily turned these into four drive by unlocking the transfer case and adding a front drive shaft to the Dana 44 front axle. This List is dedicated sharing information from owners and fans of the unique Jeep CJ-10 models. Some of these short-lived Jeeps blurred the line between classic SWB CJs (Junior Jeeps)and the Full-Size Jeeps (Senior Jeeps). With a true 7 ft bed, 119" wheelbase, and seperate "CJ-like" cab, many of them had the best of both worlds. Another model more commonly found is the CJ-10A Flightline Tow Tractor. They are shortened, 80 inch wheelbase, "Bobtail" version of the pick up.. The Tugs were used on Military Air Base tarmacs for pulling around aircraft, munitions trailors, and other ground support equipment. These Jeeps have the unique 10-slot grilles and fender mounted headlights found only on the CJ-10s.Current estimated build run totals: 810 CJ-10 Trucks (export) 2188 CJ-10A Tow Tractors Some CJ-10a Specifications: Overall Length: 170 inches Width: 94 inches Height: 78 inches Curb Weight: 6060 Lbs Ground Clearance: 6.5 Inches Fuel Tank: 20 Gallons Engine: Nissan SD33 6Cyl Diesel Transmission: Chrysler 727 Automatic Transfer Case: NP 198 or 208 Locked in low range "No shift fork for high range" Front axle: Dana 44DF "Dead Front steering, non-drive" Rear axle: Full floating Dana 70 Limited slip 4.88 gearing Wheels: 16.5X6.75 Tires: 8.00X11.5 "D" Load range Thanks, Larry Hamilton 214-244-5164 |

Chrysler recalling nearly 141k vehicles over electrical woes
Wed, 02 Oct 2013Software glitches that randomly illuminate warning lights and cause instrument cluster blackouts are forcing Chrysler to recall 140,800 vehicles, The Detroit News reports. The automaker is recalling 132,000 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokees, 91,559 of which are in the US. In addition to the Jeep recalls, Chrysler is adding 10,800 2014 Ram 1500, 2500 and 3500 trucks to the list for similar problems.
Chrysler reportedly says, "Both events occurred infrequently and appeared to resolve themselves by tuning the vehicle's ignition off and then on."
Engineers discovered a problem with the anti-lock-braking system software that causes the instrument cluster display of the Grand Cherokee to illuminate warning lights and black out - even its ABS and electronic stability control systems are affected. To fix the Jeeps, Chrysler will update the vehicle's software.
Refreshed Chrysler 300 SRT won't be sold in NA
Mon, 20 Oct 2014It looks like it might be time to bid farewell to the V8 rumble from the Chrysler 300 SRT - at least if you live in North America. The reported change comes as Fiat Chrysler Automobiles reshuffles its ranks with the Dodge brand, re-absorbing SRT and building its muscular reputation with the Challenger and Charger Hellcat models. Meanwhile, Chrysler is taking a more mainstream approach, and that likely means the end of overt high-performance models from the division for now.
According to Automotive News, the 300 SRT will be discontinued in the US for 2015, but it won't be totally dead. Some right-hand drive markets will still get the brawny V8 sedan next year, a distinction that goes a long way toward explaining some spy shots we've seen recently.
The 300 SRT's North American demise probably shouldn't come as a total shock. In FCA's five-year plan, it says that the 300 is destined for a refresh to be unveiled later this year, presumably at the upcoming Los Angeles Auto Show. There's no mention of the SRT model in the document, though, which seems to signal its end.
NHTSA investigating 630k Jeep Wranglers for possible airbag fault
Wed, Jun 24 2015The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening a preliminary evaluation into a possible wiring problem on some 2007-2012 Jeep Wrangler models that could affect airbag deployment. The government agency has 221 complaints alleging that the airbag warning light is illuminating, and that could indicate that the safety devices might not deploy in a crash. If a recall is necessary, an estimated 630,000 vehicles could be affected. According to the documents from NHTSA (as a PDF here), a "faulty clockspring assembly in the driver side airbag electrical circuit" could be the culprit. Also, some of the affected Wranglers are showing a fault code that indicates the safety device wouldn't deploy in an accident. However at this time, there are no reports of injuries related to this potential problem. NHTSA's preliminary evaluations are simply meant to investigate and don't necessarily lead to a recall. This isn't the first time for a potential problem like this on the Wrangler, though. A clockspring issue already led to a safety campaign for 2008-2012 right-hand drive Wranglers and an extended warranty for 2007 left-hand drive examples.

Several complaints cite the following diagnostic trouble code (DTC): Code B1B02 Open Squib to driver's air bag. This DTC would indicate a no-fire condition (disablement) for the driver air bag. ODI investigated the RHD (right hand drive) Wrangler for a clockspring issue under PE11-019 which led to NHTSA Recall 11V258 on model year (MY) 2008-2012 RHD Wranglers as well as an extended warranty campaign on MY 2007 LHD Wrangler vehicles. This investigation covers the MY07-12 LHD (left hand drive) Wranglers.
