1990 Jeep Wrangler 2.5l--new Paint, Good Condition on 2040-cars
Frostburg, Maryland, United States
1990 Jeep Wrangler w/hard top. 2.5L 5 speed. Runs good.
Exterior: Body was completely redone in Summer of 2013. Included rust removal (sandblasting & cut out). Body was sanded to bare metal and repainted. Gravel/chip guard applied to bottom areas and front grill & windshield. New doors were purchased, painted. New hard top painted inside & out. New side step bars. New hardtop latch handle. New wiper arms. New fender flares. New wheel center caps, new lifetime warranty lug nuts (McGard). New rear frame crossmember/bumper. Undercarriage scraped free of mud & painted. New hood catches & hinges. New door hinges. New windshield hinges. New mirror relocation kit installed. New exterior mirrors. I don't have a spare tire for it. I took the tire carrier off, but I still have it. Interior: New neoprene seat covers on front & rear. Dash repainted black. New locking center console. New locking glove box. New door pull handles, window cranks. Replaced inner & outer shifter boots. Interior floor pan repainted/coated with gravel guard (3M). New weatherstripping all around. Mechanical: New rear shocks. . Tires are in good condition, rear are about 75% tread, front about 50%. New radiator, new distributor cap & rotor. Chassis is a 1990 with about 195,000 miles. Engine is from a 1992 Wrangler & has approximately 133,000 miles on it. New steering shaft (from steering wheel to steering box). New transfer case chain installed. I bought this for my teenage son, but he doesn't think it's cool enough. As the description above says, I've done quite a bit of work to it to get into good working order and make it visually appealing...at least in my opinion. It passed Maryland inspection in the Fall of 2013, so all mechanical & safety components are in good working order. The vehicle is 24 years old, so it's a little quirky. Takes some time to warm up and run smoothly, so you can't just jump in & go during cold weather. The high beam switch is broken, I replaced it, but the aftermarket junk broke already. The lift kit makes it a little more difficult to drive, so two-handed driving is always a good idea at highway speeds. It is only a 2.5L 4 cylinder, so don't expect to do any street racing with it. A safe top speed is about 70 mph...and that's exactly why I got my son a Jeep...boys will be boys. I've only owned this for about 7 months, so I can tell you my experiences with it. CarFax does show an accident several years ago, but it appears to have been only a minor fender bender. The driver side front fender had been damaged. I did the bodywork on it, so you can't even tell it now. Please feel free to ask questions if you're interested. |

Chrysler adding 200 jobs at Ohio Jeep Wrangler plant
Fri, 15 Mar 2013Chrysler is betting that the Jeep Wrangler will continue its strong sales surge as it continues to push the legendary brand out across the globe. The Auburn Hills automaker is reportedly adding 200 workers at the Toledo, Ohio plant that builds the Wrangler. What's more, those new hires will be at their posts quickly - they'll be on the job by April 1. Of those 200 workers, 130 employees will be there to relieve those who need breaks.
Why do they need so many relief workers? The Toledo Jeep Complex is currently working at a torrid pace with two ten-hour shifts. A third shift has been ruled out for the moment because of a production botttleneck - the plant's paint shop is already maxed out. According to Reuters, Wrangler production in 2012 cleared 200,000 units, and US sales were up by 16 percent.
Another part of the Toledo plant is presently down as Chrysler retools the line to build Jeep's divisively styled Liberty replacement, the Cherokee (seen in our gallery below). Production for the new model is scheduled to begin toward the end of May.
Jeep Grand Cherokee redesign delayed
Sat, Jun 27 2015The launch of the next-gen Jeep Grand Cherokee is being now being pushed back until late 2018 or even into 2019, Jeep CEO Mike Manley indicated Friday, according to Automotive News citing a Reuters report. Under the original five-year plan, the SUV was supposed to be replaced in the third quarter of 2017. That would have made for a big year for Jeep with a refreshed Renegade and new Wrangler also slated for 2017. A delayed Grand Cherokee could send ripples through Jeep's product plans. The three-row Grand Wagoneer is meant to give the brand a vehicle to take on the Land Rover Range Rover, but it's supposed to use the same platform as the Grand Cherokee. This change is rumored to push that important model's launch further back. There's less uncertainty when it comes to the next-gen Wrangler. Manley said that the model was "broadly on track," according to Automotive News. The five-year plan aimed for a launch in the second quarter of 2017. Controversy, however, has swirled over possible plans to move the Wrangler from its longtime Toledo, OH, factory. One problem Jeep doesn't have to worry about right now is sales. According to Automotive News, Manley said volume was up 20 percent globally and could reach 1.2 million by the end of the year. He also indicated the brand was "on pace" to reach its 1.9-million-vehicle goal for 2018. The Grand Cherokee delay comes in the wake of rumors that FCA US is shuffling around its previous five-year vehicle launch plan to postpone several models. Related Video:
2014 Jeep Cherokee: Introduction
Tue, 27 May 2014When we look back at some of the more shocking product launches of recent yeras, the Jeep Cherokee is certainly high up on the list. And we aren't just talking about its off-the-wall, polarizing design.
For starters, it brought back the iconic Cherokee nameplate - something Jeep enthusiasts have coveted for ages. But beyond that, it brought a new evolution for the Jeep brand. After all, the Cherokee is car-based - using the same compact platform that underpins the Dodge Dart and Chrysler 200. It has a greater focus on technology and refinement than ever before, in an effort to appeal to a new crop of Jeep customers. And powering it all is a new (optional) V6 engine paired with an equally new nine-speed automatic transmission.
Can the Cherokee's car-based roots still allow for a vehicle that's superb when the going gets tough? Will its design still be a love/hate affair in one year's time, or will it start to blend in? Is the powertrain strong enough to not only support the needs of daily driving and road trips, but blaze a few trails as well? We're aiming to answer all these questions, and more, over the next 12 months. Welcome to the Autoblog long-term garage, Cherokee.
