Selling My 84 Jeep CJ7, I really planned on keeping it and building as I went, but career change, time, etc, best choice is to let her go.

It has a 4wd hardware fiberglass tub, and a original rust free metal fenders, hood, grille, and windshield frame. It is camo wrapped with an expensive kit in Advantage Max 4HD.  There is some wrinkles in it but it still looks great and always draws attention wherever it's goes. Tub is white gel coat underneath, and hood fenders are original black paint.  Frame is very solid and has almost no rust. There was two small spots in the back that were thin, and I welded a 2"x2"  square patch over it to keep it from getting bad. ( see pics) The only other issue I had with the frame is a bunch of holes drilled toward the front, could have been from an old plow frame? I planned to just bolt or weld a plate over it, but that will be up to the buyer!

The entire drivetrain was removed from a 1976 CJ5 with only 89k original miles. 
It is an AMC 304, freshly painted, newly rebuilt carb ( receipt from mechanic), brand new Summit fenderwell headers, purple hornies side pipes. Runs Great, runs about 80 psi oil cold, and 8-10 psi on the hottest day. Never overheats. Trans is T150 3 speed, shifts great, sometimes will pop out of first gear, but I think the floor needs trimming, not necessarily an issue w/ Trans. Dana 20 Tcase. AMC 20 rear/dana 30 front 3.54 gears. It really isn't geared for crawling, but will cruise right along with traffic on the highway no problem.

Drives straight and true, had many new front end parts installed over the last few years.
Rancho shocks at all 4 corners.
All stock suspension components.
3" Body lift with metal plate to stiffen body mounts on tub.

33x12.50 Dayton timberline ATs with only about 700 miles on them.
15x10 wheels just sandblasted and powder coated black.

Has HD rear bumper, with swing out tire carrier, receiver hitch, and mounts for DRing shackles.
Full Roll Cage
Tuffy Security Console with Sony Explod CD player
Original AM radio still in uncut dash!
Marine 6x9 speakers in custom boxes that mount between cage and rear fenderwell.
HD front bumper with push bar.
New Radiator
Bestop trail max seats.
Fold and tumble back seat from a YJ.
Probably lots I'm forgetting.

Known Issues or Things to tell:

Currently running on Antique Plates. Should easily pass a PA safety inspection if you choose to go back to regular registration.
Emissions w/ headers/ side pipes will be the issue, which is why I have antique plates.
Plates will go w/ the Jeep.

Minor drips here and there, but nothing major.

All gauges work except fuel gauge.

YJ Column, and dash wiring. Headlight switch mounted where factory clock was.

YJ heater box and blower switch.. Heat works but you have to manually move levers on box, CJ to YJ cable ends are different, I'm sure something can be done to make them work. Heater core left a few drips of antifreeze on floor the other day, so figure on having to replace it. It hasn't leaked lately, but something was going on??

Rear bumper needs supports welded back to frame if you want to tow with it. The rear crossmember is thin from the factory and that's all it's bolted to right now, so it's a little wobbly  Roll cage needs tied in to frame in the front.

Fenders are mounted about an 1" to low on tub, so you may want to re drill holes and move them up to make it look spot on, it never bothered me though.

304 has a manual choke installed, so it's a bit cold blooded.

Brake master cylinder will need replaced. It's dripping out of the back seal, not real bad, and ive been driving it like it is, but will need it soon.
(Manual brakes)

Everything works, and battery is new, and if it sits for a month it will still start right up, but wiring is a little messy, if you want it perfect

I have a factory original Kayline soft top with doors for it. It's in great shape, with just about a 1" crack on drivers window, from kids leaning something on it in garage. I have never had it on the jeep, and it looks like its never been used! I'm fairly sure all hardware bows, etc are there.

Whatever extra parts I can find for it.

Best top bikini top. ( black)

** I also have a new in box Howell fuel injection system, that was over $1200 new, and a complete painless wire harness brand new. I am not including them as of now, but if the auction goes high enough, I will, or ill offer the buyer a great deal on them.

** Also have a T176 4 Speed, and a Dana 300 with under 100k miles,  that I was going to install. Again not included right now, but will include them if auction goes high enough, or will make a great deal to buyer if wanted.

** If anyone wonders**  If Jeep Hits $4500 or better,  I will include the Howell fuel injection, and the T176/Dana 300. 

It's not a show jeep by any means, but it's a great driver, needing only some minor issues worked out. It can be a great trail jeep or a hunting rig too.

I've tried to list everything I know about it, and will answer any questions to the best of my ability.

I have receipts for many of the parts/work, not all but quite a few. 

I will work with a shipper, but arrangements are up to buyer.

I can put it on my trailer and deliver it, within reason, but price/ arrangements must be made in advance.

You can probably drive it home too, but I haven't had it on more than a 200 mile trip.

It's listed as 1980, because for some reason eBay will not accept my vin#

The jeep is a wide track 1984, titled as 1984, and the vin# is 
1jcum87a7et104475
If you need it

No reserve!

NHTSA closes book on Jeep 'trailer hitch' recall after all

Mon, 20 Jan 2014

After much debating and hand-wringing, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration now says it has "no reservations" with Chrysler's plan to recall certain Jeep Liberty and Grand Cherokee models over concerns that their fuel tanks, which are located behind the rear axle, could rupture or leak in the event of a rear impact. The longstanding argument between the two entities saw Chrysler openly defy the Feds after a request to recall 2.7 million units back in June.
Chrysler's "voluntary campaign" will instead see it recall 1.56-million 1993-2004 model year Grand Cherokee SUVs, along with 2002-2007 Liberty models. Affected vehicles will get a trailer hitch installed free of charge, which Chrysler says will provide an additional degree of protection for the fuel tanks in the event of a crash. Jeeps with Mopar-branded hitches or hitches that were installed at the factory aren't affected by this recall.
Chrysler's argument throughout this battle has been that the Jeeps in question are no more susceptible to fires than comparable vehicles from the same time period, a position that NHTSA has seemingly arrived at as well. "Those vehicles performed at a rate similar to their peers. That is the keystone analysis as to whether something poses an unreasonable risk to safety," said outgoing NHTSA boss David Strickland during an interview with the The Associated Press.

Georgia jury awards $150 million in Jeep fire case

Fri, Apr 3 2015

FCA US continues to fight allegations that some Jeep Grand Cherokee and Liberty sport-utility vehicles are unsafe because of the possibility of fires in rear-end collisions. In one recently decided case, a jury in Georgia awarded $150 million in damages to a family whose child died in a blaze in 2012 in a 1999 Grand Cherokee. The jury believed that FCA acted with "reckless and wanton disregard," and didn't do enough to warn owners, according to Reuters. The automaker was found liable for 99 percent of the damages, and the remaining one percent was for the driver who rear-ended the family's SUV. In a statement from FCA US, the company said that it is considering an appeal. Under Georgia law, the automaker was allegedly unable to present a three-year investigation of rear-impact data to jurors. This was the same information the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration used to decide that the '99 Grand Cherokee "did not pose an unreasonable risk to motor vehicle safety." The original recall for the models covered 1.56 million examples of the 2002-2007 Liberty and 1993-1998 Grand Cherokee. With the fuel tank located between the rear axle and bumper, NHTSA and FCA eventually agreed to install a trailer hitch for extra protection. A further 1.2 million 1999-2004 Grand Cherokees owners received notice of a customer service action to have their vehicles inspected, though no hitch installed. Subsequent tests showed this remedy to be effective for impacts below 40 miles per hour. The automaker has maintained the SUVs met the applicable safety standards of the period when they were built. The company was chastised by NHTSA last year for low repair rates of the problem. FCA US LLC Statement Regarding Walden v Chrysler Group Verdict: April 2, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - FCA US is disappointed and will consider an appeal of this verdict. It is unfortunate that under Georgia Law the jury was prevented from taking into account extensive data submitted to NHTSA during a three year investigation, which included more than 20 years of rear impact accident data for tens of millions of vehicles. This and other information provided the basis for NHTSA's determination that the 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee did not pose an unreasonable risk to motor vehicle safety.

Stellantis earnings rise along with EV sales

Wed, Feb 22 2023

AMSTERDAM — Automaker Stellantis on Wednesday reported its earnings grew in 2022 from a year earlier and said its push into electric vehicles led to a jump in sales even as it faces growing competition from an industrywide shift to more climate-friendly offerings. Stellantis, formed in 2021 from the merger of Fiat Chrysler and FranceÂ’s PSA Peugeot, said net revenue of 179.6 billion euros ($191 billion) was up 18% from 2021, citing strong pricing and its mix of vehicles. It reported net profit of 16.8 billion euros, up 26% from 2021. Stellantis plans to convert all of its European sales and half of its U.S. sales to battery-electric vehicles by 2030. It said the strategy led to a 41% increase in battery EV sales in 2022, to 288,000 vehicles, compared with the year earlier. The company has “demonstrated the effectiveness of our electrification strategy in Europe,” CEO Carlos Tavares said in a statement. “We now have the technology, the products, the raw materials and the full battery ecosystem to lead that same transformative journey in North America, starting with our first fully electric Ram vehicles from 2023 and Jeep from 2024.” The automaker is competing in an increasingly crowded field for a share of the electric vehicle market. Companies are scrambling to roll out environmentally friendly models as they look to hit goals of cutting climate-changing emissions, driven by government pressure. The transformation has gotten a boost from a U.S. law that is rolling out big subsidies for clean technology like EVs but has European governments calling out the harm that they say the funding poses to homegrown industry across the Atlantic. Stellantis' Jeep brand will start selling two fully electric SUVs in North America and another one in Europe over the next two years. It says its Ram brand will roll out an electric pickup truck this year, joining a rush of EV competitors looking to claim a piece of the full-size truck market. The company plans to bring 25 battery-electric models to the U.S. by 2030. As part of that push, it has said it would build two EV battery factories in North America. A $2.5 billion joint venture with Samsung will bring one of those facilities to Indiana, which is expected to employ up to 1,400 workers. The other factory will be in Windsor, Ontario, a collaboration with South KoreaÂ’s LG Energy Solution that aims to create about 2,500 jobs. The EV push comes amid a slowdown in U.S.
