Introducing the American legend with the 21st century drivability.

This is not your average jeep. It is a custom build by a Master Craftsman. This Jeep was built to be the baddest Jeep on the planet by combining race track performance with superior off road capability. Build was completed in 2010 and Jeep was a "trailer queen" show jeep for the past three years. Only 1150 miles on this engine since the build.

Engine is a bowtie 383 stroker with a bowtie aluminum heads custom built engine was built for the race team owner Glenn Clements. (Owner NASCAR 51) Jeremy Clements Nationwide series. I looked at several hemi jeeps before purchasing this one and they can't hold a candle to the on/off road performance of this Jeep.

This motor was incredibly expensive coming from a master builder. Check them out. I can't add to their reputation. Compared to cost of jeep, motor became minor

The cost of the motor build became relevant to the cost of labor for the year to complete the build

I wiped off all leaf springs and converted to full coil spring suspension to JK Rubicon specs, to build and produce and obtain incredible drive ability, and I must say it is fun and safe at any speed

All metal is original metal, no aftermarket metal at all!

Specs heckler paint system on jeep, chrome orange to electric pearl red, to black cherry with a silver allusion on base coat.

Painted frame, cleaned interior of frame with long wand and steam jenny, then sand blasted. All frame was submerged in P.O.R. primer, followed by 8 coats of Imron train paint.

Look at most Chevy powered jeeps and you will see a common automatic transmission (very easy)

Or NV 4500 popular with rock crawlers, it has a granny gear, or the AMC 4 speed uses a 3/4 " dia, but if you drop the clutch with more than 250 ish horsepower it snaps the main. In the Chevy the old Muncie was good up to about 380 h.p. but good shifting. In this build a super T-10 by Richmond it's a real street or strip choice, but it's not for 4 wd it's a long trans, but I bought a new standard super T-10 and had my contact swap the tail section for an atlas clock ring and ordered a 100% billet steel CNC main that's 1 1/4 " in dia. Rated at 1250 lb. of tork, and is less than 1/2 as long as the stock, &merging into an atlas transfer case also 1250 lb. of tork rating, 1350 U joint's, (dooly size)

A 2.77 1st 2.20 2nd 1.50 3rd1 to 1, 4th quick shift kit. A racing 4 speed and 4 WD. I have never seen another one.

We give you a list of 80% of cool name brands, briefly discussed drive train, paint, suspension, but the real value was in the master craftsman of build. It takes a very grounded expert with vast knowledge and experience in the area of Hot Rod's, Classic's, Collectables, understanding the quality on eccentric levels to recognize a master piece by another master craftsman.

There are so many things and so much to list; I can't possibly list it all.

The build of this jeep exceeded $120,000

Chrysler axes old V6s, goes all-Pentastar

Tue, 03 Sep 2013

Old technology has a way of lingering on, particularly at Chrysler headquarters in Auburn Hills. So while the Pentastar V6 has replaced the older engine architecture in just about every application, it still soldiered on in some export markets. But the introduction of a new 3.0-liter Pentastar V6, produced in Michigan and meant only for the Chinese market, has put the final nail in the old engine's coffin.
Fitted into the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Jeep Wrangler just introduced to China at the Chengdu Motor Show, the downsized six uses the same architecture as the larger 3.6-liter Pentastar V6. But because of its 2,997cc capacity, it can be exported to China without the increased duty the 3.6-liter or even 3.2-liter Pentastar engines would incur. The 3.0-liter V6 develops 230 horsepower at 6,350 rpm and 210 pound-feet at 4,400 rpm.
Admittedly, it's unlikely, but even though the engine was said to be created solely to undercut tax thresholds in China and Europe, the 3.0-liter Pentastar has recently surfaced in rumors of an application here: as the boosted heart of a potential Cherokee SRT with anywhere from 375 to 410 hp.

Stellantis ready to kill brands and fix U.S. problems, CEO Tavares says

Thu, Jul 25 2024

  MILAN — Stellantis is taking steps to fix weak margins and high inventory at its U.S. operations and will not hesitate to axe underperforming brands in its sprawling portfolio, its chief executive Carlos Tavares said on Thursday. The warning for lossmaking brands is a turnaround for Tavares, who has maintained since Stellantis was created in 2021 from the merger of Italian-American automaker Fiat Chrysler and France's PSA that all of its 14 brands including Maserati, Fiat, Peugeot and Jeep have a future. "If they don't make money, we'll shut them down," Carlos Tavares told reporters after the world's No. 4 automaker delivered worse-than-expected first-half results, sending its shares down as much as 10%. "We cannot afford to have brands that do not make money." The automaker now also considers China's Leapmotor as its 15th brand, after it agreed to a broad cooperation with the group. Stellantis does not release figures for individual brands, except for Maserati which reported an 82 million euro adjusted operating loss in the first half. Some analysts say Maserati could possibly be a target for a sale by Stellantis, while other brands such as Lancia or DS might be at risk of being scrapped given their marginal contribution to the group's overall sales. Stellantis' Milan-listed shares were down as much as 12.5% on Thursday, hitting their lowest since August 2023. That brings the loss for the year so far to 22%, making them the worst performer among the major European automakers. Few automotive brands have been killed off since General Motors ditched the unprofitable Saturn and Pontiac during a U.S. government-led bankruptcy in the global financial crisis in 2008. Tavares is under pressure to revive flagging margins and sales and cut inventory in the United States as Stellantis bets on the launch of 20 new models this year which it hopes will boost profitability. Recent poor results from global carmakers have heightened worries about a weakening outlook for sales across major markets such as the U.S., whilst they also juggle an expensive transition to electric vehicles and growing competition from cheaper Chinese rivals. Japan's Nissan Motor saw first-quarter profit almost completely wiped out on Thursday and slashed its annual outlook, as deep discounting in the United States shredded its margins. Tavares said he would be working through the summer with his U.S. team on how to improve performance and cut inventory.

FCA expands Jeep Cherokee recall to 68k more vehicles

Wed, May 13 2015

FCA is expanding its airbag software update for the 2014 and 2015 Jeep Cherokee to cover 68,593 more of the vehicles worldwide. This brings the total to 316,774 Cherokees. Of those, there are now 230,240 in the US, 28,110 in Canada, 6,367 in Mexico, and 52,057 outside of NAFTA. According to the automaker, after reviewing the potentially affected population, it discovered these additional Cherokees in need of the upgrade. The original campaign to repair these vehicles was announced in early February. Engineers found a small number of cases where dramatic changes to the angle of the vehicle that upset its balance caused the side-curtain and seat-mounted side airbags to deploy because they anticipated a rollover. This especially occurred when driving off-road. According to FCA, there're no additional reports of this happening, and the company isn't aware of any injuries or accidents. The fix is simply a software upgrade that recalibrates the airbags' deployment. Related Video: Statement: Restraint-System Software Upgrade May 12, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - FCA US LLC is expanding by an estimated 62,148 vehicles its recall of U.S.-market SUVs** to upgrade air-bag software. The action follows a routine review of the originally reported vehicle population by FCA US engineers. There have been no additional incidents and FCA US is unaware of any related injuries or accidents. The campaign will upgrade software that governs side-curtain and seat-mounted side air bags following a small number of inadvertent deployments – most of which occurred in harsh, off-road environments. They were prompted by maneuvers that dramatically changed the vehicles' angle of operation, relative to the ground, and the air-bag systems – sensing potential rollover conditions – automatically activated. The software upgrade will recalibrate the threshold for deployment and the vehicles will remain compliant with all applicable safety regulations. Affected are certain 2014 and 2015 Jeep Cherokees. The revised estimate for the U.S. totals 230,240. Revised estimates for other markets are as follows: 28,110 in Canada; 6,367 in Mexico and 52,057 outside the NAFTA region. The revised global total is 316,774 – a difference of 68,593. The Company will notify affected customers. Software will be available at that time. Customers with additional concerns or questions may call 1-800-853-1403. ** http://media.chrysler.com/newsrelease.do?id=16332&mid=431
