 Up for auction is a custom built Jeep CJ5. This Jeep was built built for trail riding with mild street use. With a little work like sway bar and alignment it could probably be driven on the street. The rear end is fully locked so it is a little rough on the street. This Jeep has a 97 Jeep wrangler engine 4.0 with Borla header, and a power aid throttle body spacer. Its wicked for a 6cyl to say the least. It has a 94 Jeep YJ wiring harness and pcm for simplicity. New alternator. Painless wiring harness for the rest of the Jeep. Stainless backing plates for brake discs. Stainless lines throughout. One piece axle upgrade. Front is dana 30 rear is amc 20. The ax15 5spd was adapted to a dana 300 with twin sick shifter. This Jeep was basically rebuilt from frame up. It was stripped and pressure washed. Sanded and primed. The frame has a light textured spray bedliner. Clean durable and easy to work on. Not all gooped up. The body is satin tan. Inside is spraybedliner. Has a new stereo with all the latest hookups for ipod, droid and phone connect with bluetooth and a microphone. Speakers are not the greatest. The Jeep has not had any real miles put on it since being rebuilt due to a driveline vibration. It has a pretty short driveshaft with the double cardigan joint. All the joints seem smooth out of the Jeep but when in it vibrates. Im out of time and money to work on it any longer and willing to sell at a discounted price. I would reccomend towing this Jeep and going over it or having a shop go over it before taking of down the highway or trail. It runs and drives as is just vibrates.  I dont want to mislead anyone on this Jeep. Its very strong and reliable. it was not slapped together. I do not know any miles on any part of it. i know the engine is smooth with no noises and no smoke. all lights and gauges work. wipers work. Jeep is geared 4.56 and has 35"x12.50"x15 tires. There is no top. Grade 8 bolts throughout frame. New ubolts. Shocks feel a little weak. All and all this is a killer jeep with an awesome look. I'd say one weekend in the garage and get the driveshaft figured out and you would be ready to hit the trails. The jeep is title as a 1973. Great for areas with emissions. I will not give out the reserve. There is no warranty. No refunds of any kind. Please ask all questions before bidding. Deposit with 24 hours of auction end. 3 days to have paid in full. and 5 days to have it picked up. I can help with shipping at your expense.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Choose Your Own Adventure... But Choose Wisely
Jeep has got you covered. We can say this without even having to know what it is you want, because there's hardly an option or configuration that you won't find in the 2014 Grand Cherokee. There are three different engines, three different four-wheel-drive systems (plus rear-wheel drive), four different trim levels - not counting SRT - two different suspension setups and five different settings for various off-road terrain conditions. If you happen to check the box for Quadra-Lift, you'll also have five different ride-height settings for the driver-selectable air suspension.
As you might expect with so many customization possibilities, the way a buyer checks the options sheet can have a profound effect on the final product and its capabilities, to say nothing of its price. Nowhere is that more true than with the Grand Cherokee's choice of engines, with the brand-new 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 stealing the spotlight from the still excellent gasoline-fueled 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and 5.7-liter Hemi V8 powerplants that carry over from last year. No matter which engine you choose, though, it will be paired up with Jeep's new standard eight-speed automatic transmission from ZF. This, ladies and gentlemen, is very good news indeed.

GMC wants to target Jeep with compact crossover

Mon, Dec 14 2015

GMC execs might consider adding a Jeep competitor to the range, but rather than new rumors of a Wrangler-fighter, this time the Professional Grade brand could go after the Renegade. Division boss Duncan Aldred would like to broaden the brand's lineup with a subcompact crossover. "I keep telling everyone, 'How can General Motors' truck brand not be in the fastest-growing segment in the industry, an SUV segment," he said to Automotive News but wouldn't confirm whether the model was under development. General Motors already offers small crossovers like the Chevrolet Trax and Buick Encore, but the CUV segment in general continues to drive auto sales in the US. Adding a similarly sized GMC to the mix might increase the automaker's volume by appealing to different customers. "A GMC buyer is very different from a Buick buyer. This is like comparing the Fiat 500X to the Jeep Renegade. They are very similar but appeal to different people," Dave Sullivan, Product Analysis Manager at AutoPacific, told Autoblog. Aldred started the speculation about a Wrangler-fighting model in an interview in late 2014, and the company reportedly even raised the idea of an offroad-focused vehicle to dealers to see how they reacted. The development process was only in the very early planning stages, but the brand considered using Hummer for a little of the new product's inspiration. Aldred later suggested to journalists the possibility of adding a compact or midsize SUV to the GMC range in the next 10 years to appeal to more buyers. He didn't comment directly on the possibility of the Wrangler-challenger at the time beyond saying: "I can't confirm that ... everything's on the table." Related Video:

Mahindra fights FCA's Jeep infringement claims

Wed, Aug 29 2018

The Indian manufacturer Mahindra is fighting tooth and nail to keep building its Roxor off-road vehicle to sell in the United States. In early August, Jeep mother company FCA filed a complaint with the U.S. International Trade Commission to stop Roxor sales in the U.S. FCA claims the Roxor design is an intellectual property infringement on Jeep design, meant to undercut FCA's own Jeep products on the market. Now Mahindra has released a statement to the commission saying that FCA's complaint is without merit. While FCA stated in its claim that the Roxor is "an imported low-quality knock-off kit car," Mahindra points out that the vehicle took several years to develop and is manufactured in Michigan. Mahindra intends the Roxor to be an off-road vehicle only, and says it does not compete with Jeeps. The Roxor isn't road legal, only comes with a diesel engine and reaches a top speed of only 45 mph. However, it has to be said that the uncomplicated Roxor is far closer to the original ethos of WWII-era Jeeps than the Jeeps FCA currently manufactures. Mahindra also states that FCA agreed in 2009 not to bring about infringement claims as long as Mahindra used a grille design that FCA approved — going with a grille design that clearly differs from the classic Jeep trademark grille. The matter might partially muddled by the fact that the grille agreement was made with 2009's Chrysler instead of today's FCA. Looking back several decades, the entire Mahindra Roxor appearance is at its core based on a 1940s license agreement made with Willys, the original Jeep manufacturer. Mahindra's statement addresses FCA as "Fiat," and it should not be forgotten that Fiat itself manufactured a Jeep lookalike, the Campagnola, from 1951 to 1973 — also with a different grille. Fiat Industrial subsidiary Iveco's history page says the 1951 Campagnola was constructed "according to the Willys mould". Mahindra claims that FCA is using the complaint to create negative publicity to damage Mahindra's reputation. The Indian manufacturer reminds us that it is the first automotive OEM to set up a new manufacturing operation in southeast Michigan in over 25 years — in Auburn Hills, not far from FCA's U.S. headquarters.
