Nice Restored 1975 Jeep Cj5 4x4 With Upgrades on 2040-cars
Rifle, Colorado, United States
Well I hate to do this but I need to sell my 75 CJ5. I built this from the ground up in 2010. No short cuts were taken and tried to keep the original look with upgraded parts all throughout. I have a lot of receipts for this jeep with well over 20000 in it. Here's the goodies Chevy Dana 44 front axle narrowed to CJ7 width Parts Mikes heavy duty inner c knuckles Moser chromoly axle shafts ARB air locker 5:38 Richmond ring and pinion Warn premium hubs 5 lug Ford conversion New ball joints, studs, bearings and brakes Hi steer arms PSC hydraulic assist steering ram Parts Mike Crossover steering linkage Scout II Dana 44 rear Moser chromoly shafts ARB air locker 5:38 Richmond ring and pinion Disc brake conversion New bearings, seals, studs and brakes Mountain off road traction or anti wrap bar Balanced and blueprinted Buick 225 V6 HEI distributor Howell fuel injection Live wires Navajo brake booster PSC hydraulic assist steering No used accessories were used on motor T18 4 speed with 6.73:1 first gear ratio Center force II clutch Parts Mike hydraulic clutch kit Shackle reversal spring over suspension with reverse eye rubicon express springs Drive train industries drive shafts Mickey Thompson Classic II wheels 37" irok tires Rancho 5000 shocks Advanced adapters headers with dual exhaust New 15 gal gas tank in rear Tube bumpers front and rear Bully Dog 9000 lb winch on front Warn fender flares Bestop full top Mastercraft seats front and rear Bestop half doors and bikini top LineX bed liner under body, in tub and engine compartment Body started out rust free and straight Powder coat primer on fenders and hood Grill dash and windshield frame is powder coated black. Smittybuilt full roll cage New Glass, wiper motor, switches, mirrors, body mounts, stainless steel fasteners ect ect. Everything on this jeep is new or been rebuilt when it was built in 2010. Some parts were extremely difficult to find but I did find them. All the spare parts I have go with the jeep The bad part is that last winter the jeep rolled out of my driveway and hit my neighbors truck so that is where the dent in the drivers rear corner came from. I took it to a local body shop and he said 500 dollars to fix it. I was going to fix myself but just don't have the time to mess with it. There are a few minor oil leaks mainly from the transfer case and transmission. There are some scratches in clearcoat from going through the brush. I will try and buff them out before delivery. The fuel injection is not 100% dialed in but runs good. I have several other proms you can try and if you just send them back to howell they will burn you a new prom for free. Other than that this jeep is solid with no squeaks or rattles or issues when driving. Handles great on the highway. I can run 65 down the interstate and it drives straight without wandering all over the road. I am sure I missed some things so if you have questions please feel free to ask. I don't really use this jeep very often and has maybe 25,000 miles on it since the build. Mainly use it for hunting and running around town. The tires are worn down from driving on pavement but they are still descent shape. |

Ward's releases 10 Best Interiors list for 2014
Thu, 10 Apr 2014While we're still a ways off from the automotive awards season proper, where things like North American Car and Truck of the Year, Motor Trend's Car of the Year and Car and Driver's Ten Best are named, that doesn't mean there aren't trophies being handed out to deserving automakers. Ward's 10 Best Interiors being one of them.
As the name might imply, the magazine focuses on the very best interior treatments in the US market. Whereas some awards purposely exclude extreme, high-dollar offerings, Ward's considers them - the only requirement is that a vehicle has a "new or significantly redesigned interior."
Ward's offered up the list of winners in simple, alphabetical order, and it only seems fair to do the same:
2014 Jeep Cherokee gets official in a hurry
Fri, 22 Feb 2013Automakers work very, very hard to keep their new vehicles under wraps until they can present them in exactly the way they want it - typically choreographed under the bright lights of an auto show, or perhaps with photos or video in an idyllic location. Spy shooters and leaks, in other words, keep executives and public-relations types up at night.
This is likely to be one of the most polarizing designs to come out in 2014.
Take today, for instance, when the team over at Jalopnik got a big scoop - the first undisguised shots of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, a model whose name wasn't even officially confirmed yet. The clandestine images taken inside of a factory were blurry and didn't exactly show off the crossover's radical new contours in the same sort of flattering light that Jeep probably would've wished for its product reveal. So the Auburn Hills automaker has wisely reacted by spilling at least some of the beans on the new model, giving us these four photos and confirming the Liberty replacement's name, Cherokee.
Feds chastise Marchionne over Jeep recall, only 13% repaired so far
Sat, Nov 22 2014Following the significant outcry surrounding the General Motors and Takata airbag safety crises this year, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration seems to be taking a much more aggressive role in pushing owners to repair their recalled vehicles. In the agency's latest move, it's urging Jeep drivers to get their models fixed. Acting NHTSA administrator David Friedman even sent a letter to Fiat Chrysler Automobiles CEO Sergio Marchionne pressing him to get more of the SUVs fixed. The problem goes back to the recall of the 2002-2007 Liberty and 1993-1998 Grand Cherokee because of the possibility for the fuel tank to rupture in some rear crashes. The campaign affected over 1.5 million vehicles, but Chrysler initially refused NHTSA's request for a repair campaign. The automaker eventually came up with a fix that involved adding a trailer hitch to provide extra protection to the tank. The feds believe the danger "will be reduced by the remedy now offered by Chrysler," according to the statement. However, this latest push comes out of NHTSA's concern that only three percent of the affected vehicles are repaired, although Chrysler maintains some 13.4 percent have actually been fixed. The agency is asking the automaker to reach out to owners "proactively," and get them to bring the Jeeps in dealers. According to the the feds' statement, the company "has nearly 400,000 parts available" to perform the fixes, and it's still producing more. Friedman's letter to Marchionne goes even further, alleging NHTSA has received reports that dealers are turning customers away who request the recall. He asks the CEO to prove within 15 days that these claims are false. "Given the low rates of repair that Chrysler has reported more than a year after the recall, significantly more aggressive steps are required," says a portion of the note. According to The Detroit News, Chrysler has subsequently promised to speed up the recall work, vowing that all dealers will have at least 12 repair kits in stock by Monday. Further, it has announced plans to ramp up its notification campaign with Facebook ads and public service announcements.
