Custom made skid plate and engine skid. Custom made rear frame cap/hitch/step and body mounted spare tire carrier (no rattles at all w/ 39.5 tire!). Also has a louvered hood panel to get the heat out. Front axle is a 78-79 ford high pinion Dana 60 front, 5.38 gears, PSC steering pump and reservoir and 1.5” ram for hydraulic assist, which can move the jeep sideways with the front wheel up against a rock. Rear is a GM 14bolt (70” factory width). High angle driveline 1350CV rear driveshaft. Jeep XJ shortened front driveshaft. Tires are 39.5” bias Irock’s on stock hummer H1 double beadlocks. PVC beadlock inserts, and Trailworthy fab rock rings. Spare is a 39.5” Irock for a 17” wheel, with no beadlock. Have a spare Hummer wheel that is included.

All in all there is probably a bunch more I didn’t
mention. It is a rock solid performer
and has never broken down on the trail.
Did Pritchett canyon in
The flaws: Oil press. Gauge doesn’t work. Speedometer fluctuates. I have a gauge panel to replace the factory gauges with autometers. Drivers rear window (plastic portion) was cut and has been taped up. Windshield is cracked. It could use a sway bar if your going to do a lot of road driving. It’s very stable, but does have a good bit of body roll.
I noticed the title check shows some issues...vehicle has a clean clear Michigan title in my name. Shows some past issues with mileage reports, which are a mute point with this Jeep, as the only original items are the tub, dash, and some of the wiring. Prior owner stated he had hit a deer with the Jeep, no serious damage, which was repaired accordingly.
Selling as I don’t use it as much as I used to, and don’t have the opportunity to do the difficult trails this was built for.

This American Life spends a week selling Jeeps in Long Island
Thu, 19 Dec 2013So you think you know car dealers? Well, maybe you do, but This American Life spent a month at Town and Country Jeep Chrysler Doge Ram in Long Island to give us a behind-the-scenes look (or listen, since it's a radio program) at what it's like to be a car dealer.
Yes, there's a lot of swearing in thick New York accents, frustration, confusion, and generally it's a madhouse at the dealership. But that's understandable when the sales staff has to sell 129 vehicles in October in order to get an $85,000 manufacturer bonus - with several other Jeep dealerships within a 10-mile radius.
The episode, 129 Cars, is worth a listen, but make sure you have 71 minutes to spare if you want to get through it in one sitting. Head here for the unedited version or here for the bleeped version (which is 58 minutes long).
Jeep hiring 1,000 part-time workers in Toledo on Wrangler, Cherokee demand
Wed, 12 Mar 2014The new Jeep Cherokee has been quite a success for Chrysler, but its factory workers are getting tired. The automaker has agreed to hire up to 1,000 part-time, temporary employees at its Toledo Assembly Complex where the CUV and Wrangler are built. It will allow the company to keep Jeep production moving, while giving laborers a break.
According to plant manager Chuck Padden in the Toledo Blade, full-time workers are regularly taking on 60 hours a week, and it's beginning to wear on them. "To get them more time off is important to us, to make sure they're refreshed, and can work safely," said Padden.
Chrysler has already hired 380 temporary, part-time workers for the plant, and 50 have been converted to full-time employees. The company is in the process of interviewing the rest of the new hires now and plans to have all 1,000 in place by the summer. They will work between 10 and 30 hours a week mostly on weekends for $15.78 per hour with limited benefits. The temporary positions will last "as long as demand continues for the Jeep Wrangler and the Jeep Cherokee," said Jodi Tinson, Chrysler spokesperson for manufacturing and labor communications, to Autoblog in an email.
Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk revived and leaked
Fri, Mar 18 2016We'd love to tell you all about the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk you see here. Thing is, we don't really know all that much. That's because, according to our colleagues at Jalopnik, it hasn't quite been officially unveiled yet. But that's probably right around the corner, now that the cat is out of the bag. From the leaked images, we can tell that this Grand Cherokee Trailhawk is a lot like the Trailhawk that was produced as a special edition for the 2013 model year. Even the graphics look similar. Expect to see some aggressive tires to go along with all the best off-road goodies Jeep has to offer. Throw in some red tow hooks to match the contrasting interior stitching, mix together some underbody protection, and you've probably got yourself a Trailhawk. We'll have to wait until FCA decides to unleash the official goods to know for sure what we're looking at, but we doubt there's a supercharged V8 underhood. We do know that's coming, hopefully soon, but this isn't it. So, while we patiently wait for that Hellcat-powered Trackhawk to make an appearance outside the realm of spy shots, enjoy the Trailhawk you see here.
