1983 "california" Cj7 Jeep 4x4 - No Rust, Recently Restored on 2040-cars
Fort Myers, Florida, United States
CLASSIC 1983 CJ-7 JEEP FANTASTIC CONDITION We originally bought this Jeep in 2003 from California because of the pristine condition this Jeep was in with absolutely no rust on it. Being in the auto restoration business for over 32 years, I could not resist a gem like this. we have restored over 30 Jeeps for clients and this one is the cleanest rust free we have seen come through. It was completely stripped to bare metal inside and out before being repainted with House of Kolor Kandy Apple Red. The inside was sprayed with a matching color of red Reflex spray-on bedliner to give it protection and durability. We put new Hancook tires and rims on it we will update pics ! along with replacing the OEM plastic valve cover with the aluminum replacement and studs and put a Webber carb. We’ve rebuilt the original T5 Borg-Warner transmission with all new berring's /sync rows and brass, replaced the flywheel, clutch, pressure plate, throw-out berring z bar /and installed new trans-mounts and stabilizer mounts. Along with rebuilding all the drive shafts, installing new U-joints, rear brake job, and all new synthetic oils in the differentials, transmission, and transfer case. The engine is completely tuned up with a new fuel pump –
While it was being driven it got frequent oil changes, washed almost weekly, with regular maintenance done without fail. This was sort of a slow project that my daughter and I did over the years – so it has been done right! The only thing that we never got to was going through the dash – it needs a new glove box,dash upgrade etc. seats are nice front and back with new door rubbers including windshield and gate rubbers We’re in the process of putting a new exhaust on it just for the
heck of replacing it. along with a new battery
You will NOT find an ’83 Jeep like this anywhere else!!! It’s in great condition and still rust free and driving.
The 6 cylinder (original) engine and 4WD make for some serious fun on and
off-road. The hard top is in good condition and was repainted a gunmetal when we got it.
Of course, being 30 years old, this
Jeep does have some minor wear and tear on it – but considering the overall
condition of this vehicle, this vehicle is in fantastic condition - as any Jeep lovers can see. Message if interested!! Don’t let

2018 Jeep Wrangler to get 8-speed auto
Mon, Nov 24 2014Remember when the Jeep Wrangler had a three-speed automatic? That wasn't that long ago – as recent as the 2007 redesign – but Chrysler is keen to leave those days behind on the dusty trail. The current model ushered in a four-speed, then a five-speed, but the latest intel indicates that an eight-speed automatic is in the cards. According to a report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and cited by Automotive News, Jeep plans on fitting its eight-speed automatic transmission to the next-generation Wrangler. Chrysler already uses the ZF-sourced slushbox on the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ram 1500, Chrysler 300, and versions of the Dodge Challenger, Charger and Durango. But according to the SEC filing, the Auburn Hills automaker intends "to use this transmission in all of our rear-wheel-drive vehicles, except for heavy-duty versions of the Ram pick-up truck and the SRT Viper." AN says that Chrysler wanted to slot the transmission straight into the current Wrangler, but it wouldn't fit. Between the transmission and shift to aluminum construction, the next-generation Wrangler promises to deliver a significant reduction in fuel consumption. In correspondence with Autoblog, however, company spokesmen declined to comment on the eight-speed's suitability towards either the current Wrangler or the upcoming one.
Chrysler investing $20M in Toledo plant to support 9-speed auto production
Sun, 28 Apr 2013In 2011, Chrysler announced a $72-million investment in its Toledo Machining Plant to modernize production of the eight- and nine-speed torque-converters for automatic transmissions made there. That upgrade work won't be finished until Q3 of this year, but Chrysler has already announced a further $19.6-million investment to increase production capacity for the nine-speeders.
The extra units will be necessary because the nine-speed transmission they'll be mated to is going into three popular models: it will debut on the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, then go into the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Dart. The company predicted that this year alone it would sell 200,000 units equipped with the nine-speed tranny, and it is spending some $374 million in addition to the investment in Toledo to upgrade production capacity for it.
The work attached to this new investment won't begin until Q3 of 2014, and it will be finished by the end of that year. There's a press release below with all the details.
