1979 Jeep Wagoneer Was My Wifes Daily Driver Take You Anywhere 4x4 No Reserve!!! on 2040-cars

Selling my wifes Jeep Wagoner, it was her daily driver for over a year but we needed something bigger so we got an 85 Suburban that can hold 9 people so we don't really use this one anymore.. General Specs 360ci motor, heavy duty th400 transmission, quadra trac transfer case WITH selectable low gear option. A few performance upgrades include edelbrock intake and carb (it was professionally overhauled a week ago). Fresh tune up including plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel pump and both fuel filters. The truck also has a custom exhaust (sounds good but not super loud), has a two inch heavy duty trailer hitch with 7 way plug, air adjustable rear shocks and a brake controller. It also has a custome professionally made extended range gas tank, holds somewhere are 30 gallons! Custom wheels and good tires (half inch of tread left). Interior carpet was removed and was rhino lined from the front seat to the tail gate. All windows work, are clear and undamaged, including the tailgate window (it needs a little help going up however...). The headliner is decent the seats have a few tears but are fairly comfortable. All the trim is accounted for and undamaged, the paint is very good for the age of the car, no flaking or peeling just the expected amount of rock chips. Very little rust mainly two quarter sized spots on either side of the rear seat. There are three dents on the rocker panel under the doors but you have to look hard to find them, the rest of the body is in very good condition. Overall this rig is a great driver, solid upgrade platform, or keep it as the perfect hunting rig I would drive this truck anywhere at any time with no worries, I let my wife drive my 6 yr old and my 6 mo old around in it with no worries. . The bad: a few days ago the fuse for the gauges blew, I haven't had anytime to check it out, most likely a loose connection. Also the chain in the transfer case for the front axle has stretched so it rattles, mainly when accelerating hard specifically up hill. It has no effect on the 4wd system right now and dosnt affect driving the truck, its just am occasionally somewhat loud obnoxious noise (it never even happens to my wife, only when I drive it...). Also it has air conditioning but the switch is broken. Everything looks good on the ac but i have never tried to operate it... Has cruise but it doent work either never tried to figure out why. Any questions feel free to call text or email and ill get back to you shortly. Thanks, James 503-410-6382 |

100,000 Jeep Cherokee models subject to further 9-speed recalibration
Thu, 29 May 2014It seems that the software problems with the nine-speed automatic gearbox in the Jeep Cherokee continue to mount. The programming already caused multiple development delays and even postponed the Cherokee's market launch by roughly two months. Now, Jeep has issued another recalibration to hopefully assuage unhappy drivers.
According to Automotive News, this reflash for the allegedly jerky transmission covers over 100,000 Cherokees built before May 5, but it's not technically a recall. If owners are having problems and complain to the dealer, they get the new software. Otherwise, they continue with the current version. New vehicles on dealer lots also receive the latest revision to the programming. It takes only around five minutes to install, but technicians need to take the Cherokee on a test drive to adapt the gearbox to the changes.
The Cherokee's transmission software has been problematic practically since the beginning. The Jeep plant in Toledo, OH, briefly idled its second-shift workers last year to take care of the issue. Since the launch issues for the crossover, demand has been strong. Jeep added another 1,000 temporary workers to the Toledo factory to keep up, and sales were on par with the Wrangler in just its first two months.
Jeep Cherokee faces on-sale delay
Sat, 23 Mar 2013A report in The Wall Street Journal looks at some of the obstacles to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee that go beyond its mootable yet "very contemporary" looks, almost all of them based on Fiat's financial position. Starting with that sheetmetal, in defense of it SRT president Ralph Gilles and Jeep design head Mark Allen said they wanted to "make sure the design still looks modern five years from now."
The WSJ piece doesn't cite longevity as a factor, instead saying that its features originated in a design for an Alfa Romeo, the transformation into a Jeep design meant allowing Chrysler get it to market more quickly and save "hundreds of millions of dollars" in engineering.
The need for Fiat to save money while it weathers the European situation has cut budgets for development, engineering and the pace of retooling the Toledo, Ohio plant to build the Cherokee. In a familiar case of snowballing at work, among the effects will be pushing back the Cherokee's volume sales date and delaying updates to some of Chrysler's other products.
2013 Jeep Wrangler Moab Edition
Wed, 11 Dec 2013There will forever be a soft spot in my heart for the Jeep Wrangler. The last one I owned was red, and, as a 1990 model, had the square headlights derided by Jeep enthusiasts who grew up on the Civilian Jeeps that descended from their General Purpose military ancestors. As a teenager, I couldn't have cared less what shape its headlights happened to be - to me, a Jeep Wrangler represented freedom; a carefree do-it-all machine equally at home with the top stowed away in the summer or with the heater on full blast in the snowy clutches of Old Man Winter. In Dr. Seuss parlance, my square-headlighted Sneetch was just as worthy as any round-headlighted Sneetch.
All that said, I'll be the first person to advise against buying a Jeep Wrangler of any sort for owners who don't plan to use it as its makers intend. There's no good reason to punish yourself with a stiff and springy ride, a loud and somewhat drafty (though generally water-resistant) interior or the poor fuel economy expected of a block-shaped vehicle if you don't enjoy its other, more exciting benefits.
Of course, Jeep has done its darndest over the years to make the Wrangler as civilized as possible while keeping it as capable as federal law will allow. The 2013 Jeep Wrangler Moab edition is one of Jeep's latest attempts to attract attention from the upper reaches of the active lifestyle set, and I spent a week with one to see what makes the Moab special.
