Rare! 1978 Jeep Cj-7 - V8, Fuel Injection - Quadra-trac - One Of A Kind - Clean! on 2040-cars
Sterling, Virginia, United States
I've had this 1978 jeep CJ7 for a few years and have enjoyed every minute of it! But, with new babies, it's time for a change. Title in hand and ready to go. It has the original 304 Automatic v8 Engine. Runs strong!! See Video below! Turns heads wherever I go....especially car shows. I haven't taken the jeep off roading, but as you can see it's very capable. Also has the very rare Quadra-Trac wheel locking system that only some cj-7s came with, and was a very desirable option to have! Lots of things have been upgraded on the jeep as you can see. Has ALWAYS been garaged! - V8 304 Engine - Rare Automatic Transmission - Rare Quadra-Trac system!!! - Fuel injection system put in!!! - Brand new battery! - Brand New Fuel pump! - Fresh paint - Custom color-match role cage! - Nice suspension lift (~6 inches), body lift (~2 inches). - 35" tires. (35x12.50) I'd say they have about 85% left. - Beadlock wheels. Micky Thompson! - Custom Swing Tire Mount - Brand new Bestop Soft-top - Brand new Soft doors and soft windows - Original 304 engine. Runs strong! straight pipe as I don't need to have emissions or inspections for an antique car in virginia, It sounds amazing! (See video!) Not sure how many miles as the speedometer gauge does not work. Should be a quick fix. - Brand new seats (Bestop) - Brand new Bluetooth stereo system along with very loud speakers. - I bought this from California. so, very little rust. There's a small rust area near the jeep logo as seen in the picture. very small rust underneath the windshield. - Carpet looks nice and clean. Car is as-is of course. See video that was taken today 9/21/2014. |

Autoblog Minute: FCA issues Uconnect software update amid hacking fears
Wed, Jul 29 2015Carjacking has gone wireless, as automakers and Congress scramble for a solution after a disturbing video on Wired showed a pair of researchers controlling a Jeep Cherokee remotely. Autoblog's Adam Morath and David Gluckman report on this edition of Autoblog Minute. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Carjacking has gone wireless, as automakers and Congress scramble for a solution. I'm Adam Morath and this is your Autoblog Minute. Cars with wireless connections are susceptible to remote hacking, as demonstrated in a disturbing video on Wired.com. The segment showed two researchers remotely controlling a Jeep Cherokee, including running vehicle's the wipers, turning up the music, and ultimately shutting down [00:00:30] the Jeep while it was being driven on the highway by Wired senior writer Andy Greenberg. Washington took note. A press release issued from the desks of senators Ed Markey and Richard Blumenthal introduces legislation protecting drivers from auto security privacy risks. Fiat Chrysler, parent company of Jeep, has a solution for its customers. For more we go to Autoblog's David Gluckman. [GLUCKMAN INTERVIEW] Chrysler has worked with the Uconnect cellular provider Sprint to plug security holes on the carrier side. The vehicles themselves can't be updated wirelessly, so [00:01:00] the remaining changes require physical access. For that, customers have three options: One, download the Uconnect software update to a USB stick and install. Two, wait for FCA to send a USB stick with the latest software that they can install, or third, visit a dealer. Owners should do what they're most comfortable with. I made a video that walks through the whole process from download to install and it took about a half hour. [MORATH] David's full video tutorial of how to install the Uconnect fix can be seen on Autoblog. [00:01:30] It remains to be seen how the rest of the auto industry will respond to these security risks. For Autoblog, I'm Adam Morath.

Each segment offers a quick and clear picture of what's happening in the automotive industry from the perspective of Autoblog's expert editorial staff, auto executives, and industry professionals.
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.
