2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport, 5spd, 120,xxx miles. Roof has been cut off and full 2" tubed roll cage has been custom built ($3,000). Rusty's 6.5" lift with drop pitman arm on 35x12.50 BFG Mud Terrains and AR 15" steel rims (less than 3,000 miles). Custom front and rear bumpers, Bushwacker fender flares have also been installed. It currently has a K&N cold air intake and throttle body spacer, I also have a brand new snorkel that can be added. The Jeep also has all brand new smoked lights other than the headlights and two Hella 6" lights mounted on front bumper that need to be re-wired since painted.

The Jeep was hit by a falling tree which caved the roof a bit. The jeep still ran straight and well, so I decided to cut the roof off and add the roll cage. The windshield pillars drop about 1" from one side to the other, but is currently welded to the roll cage, so they will not move anymore. Windshield will need to be replaced as there is a long crack in it. I replaced the front quarter panels, hood and grill as well. The entire vehicle was then sanded down and sprayed with a bluish gray epoxy primer which won't rust out. The color has grown on me, but you could paint it if you wanted to. The rear has been modified since the epoxy primer was sprayed on, therefore you will see a little bit of rust in the pics where we cut the tailgate in order to mount the spare tire Baja style.

The interior is in good shape. There are a few burn holes in the rear seat form when we welded in the 4-point harnesses for the front seats. The entire inside of the jeep has been rhino lined and I have also drilled a few holes in the floor for the water to exit. The windows and door locks DO NOT work. it seems like a waste since there is no top for this rig. Doors are now half doors. All lights and blinkers work.

I bought this Jeep in Virginia back in 2008. I am the 3rd owner and it has never seen a winter. The frame is in great shape, as well as the body. There is no rot on this Jeep.

This Jeep is a head turner. There isn't another one like it where I live and there are Jeeps everywhere. People are constantly wondering what exactly it is and some don't believe me when I tell them it is an XJ.

Please bid with confidence. This jeep is in great running condition and has a ton of life left in her. You will enjoy this rig in the woods, on the beach or even just driving around town. Keep in mind this is a lifted vehicle. It shakes around 35-40mph, but not bad. I also have driven this vehicle on the interstate and it does fine.

Please feel free to message me with any questions. Winner will assume all responsibility for shipping costs (located in Hartford, VT 05001), but I don't mind helping logistically if I can. I know I am leaving things out, so again, please ask.

Jeep driver nearly gets washed away by fast moving river

Wed, May 11 2016

Just because you can do something doesn't mean that you should. For example, you should never attempt to cross a fast-moving river in a bone stock Grand Cherokee no matter how shallow the river looks. Especially if you don't know what you're doing. A video posted recently to the Facebook group Jeep EXPERIENCE, shows an inexperienced jeep driver learning that lesson the hard way. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. The video starts innocently enough, with a group of off-roaders watching one of their friends attempt to ford a shallow looking river. Things quickly go sideways however, when the driver of the silver Grand Cherokee just plunges right in and quickly gets in over his head. The river is moving faster than the driver thinks it is, the driver panics, makes some bad decisions, then the jeep is turned over and swept downstream. Eventually, the jeep is hauled out by a Land Rover after a long comedy of errors that involves one guy losing his trousers to the current and the Cherokee ingesting untold gallons of water. What went wrong here? Well, It's pretty obvious from the video that the Cherokee driver didn't have a clear idea of where he was going or about the condition of the riverbed. He chickened out halfway across the river, and in what appears to be a misguided attempt at turning back, he reverses, digs himself deeper in the riverbed, then turned broadside on into the current. When he changes his mind again and decides to just gun it for the opposite shore, he drives directly into a deep water hazard that would have been obvious to an experienced off-roader. At that point the jeep and the driver were doomed. Hopefully the driver learned a lesson here, and hopefully he didn't pollute that river too much with the jeep's fluids.

2014 Jeep Cherokee marketing launches with 'Built Free' commercial

Mon, 28 Oct 2013

Now that the 2014 Cherokee is finally on its way to dealerships, Jeep is starting its marketing blitz for its new crossover, beginning with this 60-second TV spot, called Built Free, that premieres today. Set to a Bob Dylan recording, the ad spot discusses something we can all relate to - the feeling of being too busy and too cooped up with everyday tasks to really get out there and explore the world. But as Jeep says in the commercial, "You're still here. And you're still you. The horizons haven't gone anywhere."
Autoblog spoke to Kim Adams-House, head of marketing for the Jeep brand, who explained that this Built Free spot is "an anthemic piece" that "sparks the conversation" for the new Cherokee. As you'll notice, none of the new Jeep's features - its off-road systems, nine-speed automatic transmission, etc. - are mentioned in the ad, but Adams-House says that future marketing "will speak to more" of the CUV's highlights. Following this 60-second spot, 30-second commercials will launch that talk about some of the specific product features.
When asked if the Built Free campaign will include any throwbacks to the original Cherokee, Adams-House told Autoblog that while "we love that vehicle," the new spots are intended to carve out "a unique space for Cherokee in our product portfolio and marketplace." On that same note, don't expect any other Jeep vehicles to get the Built Free treatment. Adams-House said that while this ad "does resonate overall with the brand," it is solely intended to promote the new Cherokee.

AEV Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon

Fri, 28 Feb 2014


After their rented 2007 Hummer H3 failed them during the brutal Rallye Aicha des Gazelles in Morocco, Amy Lerner and her sister Tricia Reina were on a quest to find the most capable production off-roader for their next competition - they chose a 2012 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon. Their next mission was to find a company with the competence to configure it to win. After poring over Internet forums and perusing countless magazines for an outfitter who could meet their demanding requirements, they sent their bright orange JK ("Crush" is the official color) to American Expedition Vehicles (AEV) for some modifications.
The Michigan-based team at AEV kept the Jeep's 3.6-liter V6 and automatic transmission stock, but replaced the hood with a tall AEV Heat Reduction Hood and added an AEV Snorkel Kit for water crossings (it serves double-duty as its raised height helps to keep the air intake out of the kicked-up dust on the trail). Front and rear off-road bumpers were bolted in place, and AEV skid plates were added to provide additional undercarriage protection. A pair of IPF-900 off-road lights improve visibility, while a 10.2-gallon AEV Fuel Caddy (located behind the exterior spare) added some range. The suspension was upgraded with a 3.5-inch lift kit with Bilstein remote reservoir shocks, and 35-inch Falken Wildpeak A/T tires (LT285/70R17) were mounted at all four corners on AEV's beadlock wheels.
