Up for auction is my 1997 Jeep wrangler with a 5.7L small block Chevy 350 and a 700r4 transmission. My goal for this jeep was to make it a simple vehicle to work on as well as visually appealing and I personally believe that I have succeeded. There are no complicated fuel systems needed to diagnose or intricate computer systems to troubleshoot. Anybody who knows Chevy motors would be able to work on this jeep with no trouble. This vehicle runs and drives well. It has great low end power with the ability to cruise 80 miles on the highway no problem. This Jeep has not been abused at all. For the most part it was garage kept except on sunny days when riding to the beach. The odometer on the jeep list 195930 but I did the swap at 182000 miles so the power train only has 14,000 miles on it. I am the second owner. As soon as I purchased the Jeep I parked it in my garage and began the conversion. The reason I am selling is because of the lack of use it gets in my possession. The majority of the 4 years I’ve owned it, it just sits in the garage. So I would like to now use that space to build a caf? racer. Here’s a list of a few of the main specs/mods I have done: POWERTRAIN 5.7 L Chevy V8 350ci (Remanufactured Crate motor) 700r4 Transmission (Rebuilt from Goodfellas transmissions in Tarpon Springs) March Performance Serpentine Kit Lokar 700r4 linkage shifter NP231 Transfer case Transfer case cable shifter MSD Hei Distributor Edelbrock 1400 Carburator 3 Core radiator with transmission cooler ports Electric fan w/ shroud Stand alone Transmission cooler Custom Exhaust with muffler and catalytic converter 4.11 Gears Edelbrock Performance 2101 intake manifold Conversion adapters through Advance Adapters and Novak EXTERIOR Freshly painted exterior within the last 2 years Rugged Ridge Side rails Warn Front Bumper with a grill guard and winch mount 9000lb winch Fender Flares Hood lock for security New Bestop Top Mirror relocation bracket so that you can ride with the doors off still have mirrors. INTERIOR Freshly painted interior within the last 2 years Upgraded to 03-06 roll bar padding Upgraded to 03-06 Sound Pods with light All the gauges in the instrument cluster works with the conversion except the tach so there is an aftermarket tach on the dashboard Dashboard blue led upgrade CD/MP3/USB head unit Alpine Mono Amp Sony Explode Subwoofer Speaker upgrade to 5.25 speakers in dash and 6.5 polk audio’s in speaker pods Both the front and rear seats are vinyl. Not covers. Interior lined with truck bed lining Fuel Pump cut off switch for security Jeep branded grab handles SUSPENSION 16x Moto Metal wheels Goodyear Duratrac 305x70x16 tires with 95% tread left Full Size Spare tire holder 3” Zone lift kit Adjustable upper control arms The front brake pads have <300 miles on them and the rear shoes still have plenty of life on them. The brake lines were flushed 2 months ago. Plus much more… To see more pictures of this Jeep go to http://imgur.com/a/XIjgf If you would like a specific picture to be taken, message me and I will try to take it as soon as possible. I understand that it may be a little intimidating to buy a vehicle so I am trying to make it as easy as possible so I have created a video for your viewing pleasure. These are not the best quality videos but it can give you something to judge off of before you come see the jeep. To see a video of a test drive of this jeep click https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjhpkuhIHQo Another video of the jeep driving at highway speeds https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cB9NDW0pIUY&feature=youtu.be There aren’t many flaws at all on this jeep, but I want to be open with the jeep so the only ones I can find are a small scratch on the driver door. The Pulley kit comes with the AC Compressor and the Jeep’s OEM setup had A/C as well, I just haven’t had the work done to finish the setup. It really just needs an accumulator and a shop to hook up the hoses to the compressor. With the windows down or doors off, I never had a need for A/C but at least you know its not too much more work needed to get A/C if necessary. And the driver sun panel may need to be stitched up (seen in the pictures). I have a clean title in hand. This jeep is road ready. Bring cash and your own license plate and drive it home if you want. Keep in mind that this is a FL jeep so I have not had to have any emissions tests. Buyer is responsible for researching their state's registration requirements. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask or come and see it for yourself. I will need a non refundable $500 paypal deposit within 24 hours of auction ending and the rest of the payment within 7 days of auction ending. I’ll accept cash or cashier checks for payment. Jeep is listed locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early. Any ebay members with less than 10 feedback MUST message me prior to bidding or their bid will be cancelled. Buyer is responsible for all shipping costs and arrangement. This vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no
warranty, expressed written or implied. *Buyers Inspection: I have done my best to
disclose all information known about this Jeep for auction. I welcome a buyer’s
inspection. If you plan to have an inspection, please make ?sure you inspect
the vehicle prior to the auction ending. If you choose not to inspect the
vehicle prior to purchase, you are responsible to use the photos provided
and ask questions before purchase to ensure the Jeep meets your expectations
upon pickup. Inspection fees, if any, are Buyers responsibility. Winning bidder has committed to buy, not look. On Apr-04-14 at 15:18:22 PDT, seller added the following information: No Reserve and I am not ending auction early. Highest bidder on Monday night will win the Jeep!

Supplier says Jeep Cherokee hack only affects FCA cars
Wed, Aug 5 2015Harman doesn't think that drivers need to worry about any further hacks of its products. The company supplies FCA's Uconnect infotainment system where a software vulnerability is responsible for a 1.4-million vehicle recall. "This experimental hack is unique to Chrysler," Harman CEO Dinesh Paliwal said to Automotive News. "This does not exist, to our assessment, in any other vehicle." The reason that the company wouldn't be involved is that automakers aren't simply plugging in the existing infotainment systems into new vehicles. According to Paliwal, Harman supplies the unit, but FCA and other automakers are able to make additional modifications for their vehicles. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has also recently taken up the question of broader software vulnerabilities in Harman's products. On July 29, the agency began investigating the company to check for similarities between Uconnect and the infotainment systems supplied to other automakers. The Jeep hack became national news when two researchers were remotely able to take control of a Cherokee. The vulnerability in the cellular connection even gave control over the brakes. "Once people get in the car and get into the CAN bus, then you can start to mimic and mess up many, many things in the car," Paliwal said to Automotive News. Politicians immediately responded with legislation to create federal standards in hopes of protecting drivers better. NHTSA also opened an investigation to make sure the automaker's software update actually solved the problem. Related Video:
Work at a Chrysler dealership, get free college education
Mon, May 4 2015The cost of a college education in the US can put a student tens (hundreds, in some cases) of thousands of dollars into debt. FCA US wants to give its dealership employees a leg up, though, and the automaker is now offering a completely free education to them through a partnership with Strayer University. The workers can take any of the college's classes online or on campus through program called Degrees@Work. Currently, the offer is only available to employees Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram and Fiat dealers in the automaker's Southeast region, which includes Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee. However, a national expansion will happen before the end of the year, Strayer spokesperson Cristina Henley tells Autoblog. The program will cover all of the students' expenses, including their books, according to Henley. FCA US sees this partnership as a way to improve the talent of its workforce, retain employees longer and possibly attract people wanting to take advantage of this free education. "Many of our dealers have expressed concern over the availability of talent to fill open positions due to business growth and turnover in their stores, especially in metro markets," Al Gardner, the company's Head of Dealer Network Development, said in the Degrees@Work announcement. Strayer has about 40 programs available, including in business administration, accounting, marketing, and more, and the university offers associate's, bachelor's, and master's degrees. It will also give FCA US employees credit for their work experience to get them a diploma even more quickly. FCA US Dealers to Offer Employees No-Cost, No-Debt College Education FCA US teams with Strayer University to develop first-of-its-kind dealer program Degrees@Work program open to all employees of participating dealerships Employees can earn no-cost, no-debt degree through Strayer University All Chrysler, Jeep®, Dodge, Ram and FIAT dealerships may participate First phase of program rollout begins with dealers in the FCA US Southeast Business Center National rollout expected later this year May 4, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - Employees of Chrysler, Jeep®, Dodge, Ram and FIAT dealerships will have the unique opportunity to earn a no-cost, no-debt college degree through Strayer University's Degrees@Work program, developed in collaboration with FCA US LLC. FCA US is the only company in the automotive industry to offer the program.
FCA's Pentastar V6 gets more power, efficiency for 2016
Wed, Sep 2 2015Already a vital member of FCA's powertrain lineup, the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 is receiving major efficiency improvements for 2016. Thanks to a massive amount of new tech attached to the mill, fuel economy is up six percent, and torque below 3,000 rpm jumps nearly 15 percent. The updates arrive first in the 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee, but they should proliferate to other models eventually. At least in the Grand Cherokee, the tweaks push power up five horsepower to 295 ponies. FCA's engineers went through the Pentastar from top to bottom to eke out as much efficiency as possible. For example, there's now a two-speed variable-valve lift system that can run in low- or high-lift modes. This upgrade is responsible for 2.7-percent better economy, the company claims. A new intake manifold with longer runners and updated variable-valve times also helps boost the torque output. Further improvements come from pushing the compression ratio to 11.3:1, from 10.2:1 before. Perhaps most impressive is that despite all of the innovations, the latest Pentastar actually weighs four pounds less than the current version. Beyond the Pentastar improvements, all of the FCA US gasoline engines, except for the Viper's 8.4-liter V10, will be E15-compatible for 2016. The company says that it wants to be ready for the higher ethanol content fuel's greater use in the near future.
