08 Wrangler with a 5.7L Hemi

AEV Conversion with Flowmaster Exhaust
(engine and trans is from a 2007 Commander, it had 8900 miles)
AEV hood
AEV 4.5 inch lift
Goodyear 37 MTR with Kevlar
AEV Bead Locks (spare is matching style but not a bead lock)
Rear Axle, Danatrac ProRock semi-float 60, with ARB locker
Front Axle, stock 44 housing with RCV shafts and ARB locker
Both driveshafts are Woody's 
(The front housing is bent and needs replaced before this Jeep is taken for any hard core off-roading.) 
Clayton arms 
(Front and Back)
Redneck ram hydraulic steering assist
Matching Mopar off road bumpers
Warn Endurance 12.0 with green Am Steel and wireless remote
Steel skids front to back
(Skids are beat and the trans skid needs pressed and some of the bolt holes need tapped.)
ARB compressor 
NAV
Dual tops
The whole interior was removed to apply a spray in bed liner.
OR sport cage
(Some of the bolts didn't thread all the way into the dash.)
Tuffy's, Conceal carry security drawer, security cargo drawer, console insert and glove box.
(the cargo drawer top was sprayed along with the tub. It needs few parts and has been well used.)

There aren't any large dents but the body is scratched up, a few trees have saved it from rolling. There are also several chips in the paint. The driver door hinges could use some work to get the door to swing perfectly. The front bumper is a little bent on the drivers side but its minor. Two of the rims are new. The Hard top could use a refinishing and there is a short hairline crack at one of the bolt hole. As long a you don't crank down to much its not a issue. It will be getting a new windshield so it won't have the JKX sticker anymore. The fenders need a reinstall and I have a 2nd set that I bought on Ebay and never used.

This Jeep needs work!  If your not willing to spend the money to at least replace the front housing do not bid. The RCV's have shattered the locker once. I'd recommend spending $10,000 on the matching 60. It could also use a set of shocks from Off Road Evolution. 

This Jeep was built for one thing, to go hard off road! This jeep is a rocket and you can drive it flat-out all day as long as your don't have to turn. Its handling leave much to desire and the Ram takes a bit of getting used to. It has 4.88's so its not the rocket it once was but it still flies off the line. It gets horrible gas mileage, 19 gallons will get you 220-240 miles on a trip and it will eat a tank just running around over the weekend.

This is not a fire sale so the reserve is high but not unreasonable. I built this Jeep myself and have touched every bolt. I did the conversion at 20k at a BMW dealers body shop. I don't weld so one of there body guys helped with the conversion. It took 54 hours over tree day to install the engine and the AEV lift. I know I won't get anywhere near what I have in this Jeep and don't expect to. If you hired someone to build this Jeep you are looking at over 100K.  

I ran over a Toyota Corolla when this Jeep was about a year or so old, which was before I modified any part of this Jeep.

Germany threatens to ban FCA vehicles over diesel emissions dispute

Tue, May 24 2016

Germany is threatening to ban sales of FCA products over diesel emissions. According to the newspaper Bild Am Sonntag, Germany's Federal Motor Transport Authority found evidence of a so-called defeat device that shuts down certain emissions controls after running for 22 minutes. A standard diesel emissions test in the European Union reportedly takes 20 minutes to complete. FCA denies the allegations. "We believe all our vehicles respect EU emissions standards and we believe Italian regulators are the competent authority to evaluate this," the company said in a statement. The latter part of that statement drew ire from German authorities, especially after FCA declined to meet with German transport minister Alexander Dobrindt to discuss the issue. Graziano Delrio, the Italian Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, vowed to work with German authorities on behalf of FCA. According to EU law, FCA is required to homologate its vehicles in Italy because that's where its regional operations are based. When will the diesel-scented soap opera end? We wish we knew, but our Magic 8 Ball is covered in soot.

Fires, deaths continue after Jeep fuel tank recall

Wed, Feb 11 2015

As Kayla White slowed her SUV behind two other cars to exit a suburban Detroit freeway on Veterans Day, it was rammed from behind by a Cadillac STS. Her red 2003 Jeep Liberty bounced off a Nissan in front of it, rolled onto its side and exploded in flames. Other drivers ran to help but were forced back by the heat. Firefighters arrived in just three minutes but were too late. White, a 23-year-old restaurant hostess who was eight months pregnant, died of burns and smoke inhalation. White is one of more than 70 people killed in fires involving older Jeeps with plastic fuel tanks mounted behind the rear axle. Fiat Chrysler, which makes Jeeps, recalled 1.56 million of them in June 2013 under pressure from US safety regulators. But only 12 percent of the SUVs have been repaired in the 18 months since the recall, a much slower pace than usual. And White's Jeep was not among those fixed. Last week, prosecutors charged the Cadillac driver with committing a moving violation that caused a death. But safety advocates and the lawyer for White's family say the blame belongs as much, if not more, on Chrysler and an auto-industry safety system that moves too slowly to prevent tragedy. The rear-mounted tanks have little structure to protect them if struck from behind, making them susceptible to punctures and fires. Moving the gas tank in front of the axle would be expensive and difficult. So Chrysler's remedy involved installing trailer hitches on the rear of the Jeeps as an extra layer of protection. Government testing showed the hitches protected the tanks in crashes up to 40 mph when stationary Jeeps were hit from behind. But at higher speeds, they wouldn't help. White tried to get the repair done a few weeks before her death but was told by a Jeep dealer that parts weren't available, according to Gerald Thurswell, her family's lawyer. He wouldn't identify the dealership, and his contention could not be independently verified by The Associated Press. Thurswell contends the gas tank ruptured, spilling fuel that touched off the fire. A Chrysler spokesman expressed sympathy to White's family but said the company had no written proof that she asked a dealer about the recall. Two crash reconstruction experts interviewed by the AP say gas wouldn't have spilled from White's Jeep if the tank had been mounted in front of the rear axle. Both say a hitch might have prevented the tank from being damaged, but because both vehicles were in motion, neither expert could say for sure.

Stellantis mega-merger gets approval from FCA, PSA shareholders

Mon, Jan 4 2021

MILAN — Shareholders of Fiat Chrysler and PSA Peugeot decisively voted Monday to merge the U.S.-Italian and French carmakers to create worldÂ’s 4th-largest auto company. Addressing separate meetings, both PSA Peugeot CEO Carlos Tavares and Fiat Chrysler Chairman John Elkann spoke of the “historic” importance of the vote, which combines legacy car companies that helped write the industrial histories of the United States, France and Italy. Before the merger is finalized, shares in the new company, to be called Stellantis, must the launched. It will be traded in Milan, New York and Paris. The marriage of PSA Peugeot and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is built on the promise of cost-savings in the capital-hungry industry, but what remains to be seen is if it will be able to preserve jobs and heritage brands in a global market still suffering from the pandemic. The deal will create the worldÂ’s fourth-largest carmaker, with the capacity to produce 8.7 million cars a year, behind Volkswagen, Toyota and Renault-Nissan, and create 5 billion euros in annual synergies.  “We are fully aware of the fact that together we will be stronger than individually,'' PSA CEO Carlos Tavares told a virtual gathering of eligible shareholders. “The two companies are in good health. These two companies have strong positions in their markets.” The new company will put together under one roof French mass-market carmakers Peugeot and Citroen, top-selling Jeep and Italian luxury and sports brands Maserati and Alfa Romeo - pooling companies that have helped define the industry in the United States, France and Italy. While the tie-up is billed as a merger of equals, the power advantage goes to PSA, with Tavares running Stellantis and holding the tie-breaking vote on the 11-seat board. Tavares is set to take full control of the company early this year, possibly by the end of January. Fiat Chrysler chairman John Elkann, heir to the Fiat-founding Agnelli family and Fiat ChryslerÂ’s biggest shareholder, will be the Stellantis chairman. Fiat Chrysler CEO Mike Manley will head North American operations, which is key to Tavares' long-time goal of getting a U.S. foothold for the French carmaker he has run since 2014, and the clear money-maker for Fiat Chrysler. Such a deal was long wanted by Fiat ChryslerÂ’s long-time CEO Sergio Marchionne, who had predicted the necessity of consolidation in the industry. He was unable to find a deal before his sudden death in July 2018.
