1997 Jeep Cherokee Sport 2 Door 5 Speed (rare) on 2040-cars
Crestwood, Kentucky, United States

1997 Jeep Cherokee Sport 2 door 5 Speed manual (Rare) Body The body has
plenty of dents/scratches but no paint missing.
There is no rust anywhere and the floors look like new. There are no cracks in the body. All glass in good all around. This Jeep is very rare. It is very difficult to find a rust free 2
door with a 5 speed manual tranny. And
this one you can drive on the highways. Off Road Equipment The Jeep has
a 6.5 Tomken lift kit. Massive adjustable
control arms, adjustable track bar. JKS
sway bar disconnects. Tom Woods driveshaft and slip yoke
eliminator. Detroit locker in rear and
Track Lock diff in front. 4.56 superior
gears, Rusty’s heavy duty steering bar, Bilstein shocks (the most expensive) front
and rear. Warn winch and bumper in front
and Hanson Offroad rear bumper with tire carrier. It has BF Goodrich 35” KM2’s with plenty of
thread left. Mechanics Maintenance
is done all the time to keep this XJ in perfect shape. This jeep does not leak a drop of
anything. It does not use oil. I’ve driven it as far as Maine to attend the
Jeep Jamboree and recently to PA for a trail ride. This is not a trailer queen and can be driven
on the highway at 70 or above. Recently the
front bearings/seals were replaced. All
fluids were changed, all fluids. The
brakes were recently replaced, front and back.
The steering box is OEM with a steering box brace. The cooling system is in great shape and the
Jeep never overheats. The air
conditioner blows frigid air. The motor
(4.0) is very strong and has had the exhaust header replaced with a better
unit. The clutch has been modified so
you can start the Jeep on a hill, in gear, with the clutch out, just like
Wranglers. Very nice. The ball joints and tie rod ends have been
replaced recently. The engine has had
the plugs changed and is not due yet.
Coolant has been recently changed. Mileage is
over 100,000 but who cares, it’s a Jeep.
There is no earthy reason that this XJ won’t last many more years. This Jeep is for sale locally and will be pulled if sold.
Has a salvage title. Was hit and minor damage totaled it. Was fixed and titled. |

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.

Fiat Chrysler taps Amazon, Shell execs to fill roles
Fri, Dec 7 2018MILAN — Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is tapping executives from Amazon and Shell Oil Company with previous automotive industry experience to fill its ranks. CEO Mike Manley said in a letter to employees Thursday that Mark Stewart would join FCA as chief operating officer of North America from Amazon, "a company known for its culture of innovation, and obsession with delivering incredible value to customers." At Amazon, Stewart led teams focused on advanced robotics, artificial intelligence and automation methods. He previously was COO of ZF TRW automotive components supplier. Niel Golightly was named head of global communications. He was most recently Shell's vice president for external relations in North and South America, with a focus on reputation, brand and stakeholder engagement beyond communication strategies. He previously held roles at Ford Motor Company. Related Video: Image Credit: REUTERS/Rebecca Cook Hirings/Firings/Layoffs Alfa Romeo Chrysler Dodge Fiat Jeep RAM FCA Amazon shell Mike Manley
2015 Jeep Renegade leaks out ahead of Geneva debut
Mon, 03 Mar 2014Meet the Renegade - Jeep's new baby crossover that's set to debut at the Geneva Motor Show this week. The folks at Jalopnik got their hands on a small batch of photos of the new little cutie, showing what appears to be a Trailhawk (read: trail-rated) version, as well as a more civilian-spec Renegade, complete with a new removable roof system, reportedly called My Sky.
Details are slim, though in addition to the exterior images, one photo of the interior has also been leaked, showing what appears to be a small, yet functional (and nicely appointed) cabin. Early reports suggested that the new small Jeep would be based on the Fiat 500L platform, though Jalopnik rightly points out that the Renegade looks an awful lot like the Panda 4x4. Regardless, there's still likely some 500L bones under there, and we'll know more once the official details are revealed in the very near future.
Head over to Jalopnik for more shots of the cute little Renegade, and stay tuned for more information as it becomes available.
