2003 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Sport Utility 2-door 5.3 V8 Ls 3 on 2040-cars
For sale is my 2003 Jeep Rubicon That I had custom built. They say "a Jeep can go anywhere but not too fast" Here is your exception to that rule. I purchased this Arizona jeep and installed a GM LS-3 5.3 V8 with 4L-60E transmission package from a rear ended silverado with 46 K on the clock. It came with all necessary components from the donor truck including the drive by wire throttle, clean wiring harness, ecm Etc. This is the aluminum block version and weighs 100 pounds less than the lethargic 6, and is rated at around 340 hp with free flow exhaust and intake. The body/odometer digital dash reads 107,000 but is actually about 53k. The motor is stock. ALL driveline components were removed and rebuilt of refurbished with new fluids and seals. Rear axles were replaced with USA Alloy hardened axles as a precaution with factory 4:10's, the rest of the driveline is stock Rubicon and in excellent working order. The lockers will work in hi or low lock. The chassis was coated with bullet proof pore 15 coating and the interior floor pan is coated with Rhino line. The Jeep sits on a 4" long arm lift, 35" tires and a 1" body lift. The top is a new Bestop Sunrider, 1000 watt stereo, and tons more bling and goodies. All of the work was done by a professional shop and there are no issues with the vehicle whatsoever. Please ask questions and come and see it for yourself...This is a bad boy jeep, not for the timid or shy. It has absolutely no rust ANYWHERE and has not seen mud, just a little sand. I have all paperwork for parts and professional installation. Carfax is clean, and I am 52 years old-the truck has never been abused, just my little Jeep hotrod. This item is listed locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early. May consider trade for cabin cruiser boat. TXT questions to 219-617-3993. The last pic. is Ruby's replacement. I have clean title in hand. Make a non-insulting offer and she may be yours!

Hands on with the concepts of the Moab Easter Jeep Safari
Fri, Mar 20 2015Jeep has a way of tugging at the heartstrings of its enthusiastic owner base when the annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari rolls around. The 2015 version sees all boxes ticked in the off-road event's 49th year: multiple diesel engines on display, a pickup-truck-like model and more than a few nods to the brand's long and storied history book. We were able to get a first-hand look at the seven concepts being shown in Utah's Red Desert in the much cooler, cleaner confines of the FCA Technical Center's Design Dome. Jeep Chief Concept We aren't sure if it's that throwback chrome grille or the eye-catching Ocean Blue paint, but even more than the Red Rock Responder, the Chief drew our eye as soon as we walked into the Design Dome. It's a surprisingly tall vehicle, but it's also very wide. We'd also wager it's longer than your typical four-door Wrangler. Jeep may have used a Wrangler as a base for the Chief, but any similarities to the donor vehicle are extremely difficult to spot. The fenders and doors are probably the biggest giveaways, but you're going to need to squint (and have the benefit of a Wrangler to compare with, like we did) to pick out Wrangler bits. As is the recurring theme throughout all seven concepts, the Jeep design team's attention to detail is borderline fanatical. From the "Surf Rated" badge on the fenders, to the tweaked door handles to the bumper stickers in the cargo area and the Tiki-statue-shaped shifter, the little details are truly the stars of the Chief Concept. The rosewood trim in the rear cargo area is stunning and adds to the Beach-Boy-friendly stylings of the Chief. The throwback grille, round headlights and tall, skinny taillights, meanwhile, add a lot of personality to the exterior. The high beltline and lower roof gives the Chief a chop-topped look, but it's arguably the least successful element to the blue concept's otherwise impressive design. All of the vehicles Jeep put together for Moab are 100-percent functional. That's not surprising with some of the vehicles you'll see below, but it somehow is remarkably impressive given the degree of the changes Jeep made in putting together the Chief. Jeep Wrangler Red Rock Responder The Wrangler-based Red Rock Responder is arguably one of the most capable of these real-world vehicles, both in terms of the way it looks and its actual hardware. We mentioned the special rescue equipment fitted to the bright-red, truck-like Jeep – a compressor and air gun, sockets, tow straps, etc.
Jeep Renegade pricing to start at $18,595?
Fri, 14 Mar 2014While there's no shortage of excitement surrounding the new Jeep Renegade, one of the limiting factors to the little trucklet will be its price. With the Kia Soul starting at $14,900 and the Nissan Juke kicking off at $18,990, the Renegade can't afford to stray away from that price bracket.
And judging by some potentially leaked pricing info, it won't. A quick Google search of "Jeep Renegade Price" reveals (at least for now) that the Italian-built Jeep will start at $18,595. The "as shown" price of $25,895 seems to indicate the Trailhawk model shown on Jeep's consumer page.
If the $18,595 figure is correct, it's likely for the base, two-wheel-drive Sport model, with the Latitude and Limited trims falling somewhere between there and the $25,895 as-equipped price of the Trailhawk.
