We are re-listing this jeep due to a website mistake. This is a 100% custom CJ5. I bought this jeep from a kid about six months ago and tore a ligament in my knee. I am now unable to drive this vehicle any longer. The person I bought this from was a fabractor; he took a CJ5 tub, stripped all the metal off and put 18 gage steel all around. He also re-shaped the doors to make it look like a CJ7 BUT ITS NOT!!!! Its a CJ5. A CJ5 soft top will fit on this car. CJ7 doors overlap by an inch. The kid also moved the front axles about 2 inches foward, and the rear axles 2 inches back to make the jeep more stable when driving it. It has a dana 60 in the back, and a dana 40 in front. Both axles are out of a 72 blaser and are completly redone. Four wheel disk brakes all around. There is a spring over axle lift which is 5 inches. It has 35 inch tires, which are brand new no wear. There is a new alternator, starter, seliond, new battery, and all new wiring. There are led lights in the back of the vehicle. All gages work within the car, and has a 360 v8 engine and a weber 650 carburetor in it. This jeep goes 75 miles an hour on the highway without a wobble. I was using this car as my daily driver until I hurt my knee. It has a twin stick dana transfer case. It is also a 3 speed mannual. The paint job is gun metallic gray.There is a full roll cage throughout the vehicle. There are blue and black summit racing seats. There is full power steering. This is an AWESOME jeep. It NEEDS NOTHING! Doesn't have doors, heat, or top. I reserve the right to end the auction early. This vechicle is being sold as is and there is no warranty. Please do not bid if you do not have the funds. My cell number is listed for any questions (516)851-7697.

FCA seeking new trial in Jeep fire case, calls $150M judgement 'grossly excessive'
Sat, May 9 2015Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is fighting back after a Decatur County, GA jury ordered the company to pay $150 million to the family of a four-year-old boy that was killed after a 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee crashed and caught fire. The company is requesting the judge reduce the award, and should Walden's family not agree to the lower sum, that a new trial be held. The Detroit Free Press reports that FCA would be forced to pay $120 million over the death of young Remington Walden, with an extra $30 million being paid to the boy's family. Neither figure sits well with the automaker, though, which called the fine "grossly excessive," and claimed it was in violation of Georgia state law. The judgment stems from FCA's long-running problem with the fuel tanks of certain Jeep models built in the 1990s and 2000s. According to the newspaper, FCA argues that the jury was biased after the Waldens' attorneys played on the their passions and pushed for a big award, saying the wrongful death award was 11 times more than any appeals court has ever upheld. FCA said attorneys for the plaintiffs told the jury to base the settlement on Sergio Marchionne's total compensation, $68 million. FCA also claims in its motion that the young boy's suffering was brief. "A $30-million pain-and-suffering award for what plaintiffs acknowledge was at most one minute of suffering is irrational," the motion, which was obtained by The Detroit Free Press, read. "Where such plainly improper arguments are immediately followed by irrational and stunningly excessive damage awards, there can be no doubt that the jury acted from passion and prejudice." Jim Butler, the attorney for the Waldens, has called the motion "nonsense," although he said the family will accept whatever figure the judge sets.
Consumer Reports digs Mazda3, disses Jeep Cherokee
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has just rendered its verdict on two of the more important cars to launch this year - the Mazda3 and the Jeep Cherokee. Considering the value a "Recommended" rating carries with the public and the viciously competitive markets these two cars compete in, Consumer Reports' view could have some impact on their initial success.
For Mazda, that's a good thing. CR spoke quite highly of the Zoom-Zoom brand's compact sedan and hatch, testing both models, and citing the excellent fuel economy and snickety-snack manual shifter as high points. Downsides to the 3 included a ride that is agile but "nervous," a bit too much noise and a cramped back seat. Still, the 3 was good enough to earn its place in the ranks of the "Recommended."
The Jeep didn't fare quite so well, with CR calling the polarizing CUV "half-baked." Although both engines were tested, the magazine called the 2.4-liter four-pot underpowered and its nine-speed automatic unrefined and unresponsive. That's particularly damning, considering the 9AT's role in future Chrysler products, including the extremely important 200. Overall, the Cherokee missed out on the coveted "Recommended" rating.
Chrysler to accelerate production of 2013 Ram and V6 engines
Fri, 16 Nov 2012Chrysler is adding a third shift at its Warren Truck plant to meet demand for the new 2013 Ram pickup. And with tight supplies of its Pentastar V6, the company is also boosting output at its Mack Engine plant.
The expansions will add 1,250 jobs and are part of a $238 million investment by Chrysler in the Detroit area. Warren's third shift will begin work sometime in the spring, a Chrysler rep told Automotive News. Mack's increased Pentastar production a could include both 3.6 and 3.2-liter engines.
The company says it also plans to invest $40 million in its Trenton Engine plant to allow for production of a 3.2-liter V6 as well as the Tigershark inline-four for the upcoming Jeep Liberty replacement.
