NO RESERVE!! 1984 Jeep CJ7 Laredo - 126,500 miles This 3 owner 1984 Jeep CJ7 Laredo is a beautiful classic and original rust free California Jeep that gets a ton of attention everywhere I go. It spent the last 20 years in the desert of California before I brought it back with me to Colorado. There is over $20k in aftermarket upgrades (All Upgrades were completed at 100k miles). The engine is incredible and has so much power that I can easily travel 70mph driving over the mountain passes here in Colorado comfortably. Not only does it have a great power band with the fuel injected 350v8 and the 700R4 overdrive auto transmission but it's driving characteristics make it a synch driving in town, on the highway and offroading. When driving 70mph on the highway, the rpm's are only 1800. The custom Rear Dana 60 Differential can withstand the power of the V8 all day long! t It is also set up to perfectly to conquer the most difficult terrain possible. If I kept it, I had planned to drive it to Moab next fall. There isn't another CJ I have ever owned that was as awesome as this Black Laredo. It is set up perfectly and turn key. It is ready to go! It also has current California smogll I would not be afraid to drive this Jeep anywhere. Aftermarket Upgrades Include: * rebuilt1990 Chevy 350 TBI 350v8 *rebuilt 700R4 Automatic Transmission with Rachet shifter *Electric Fuel Pump *Custom Build Rear differential Dana 60 with 35 spline chromoly Axel shafts, 4.11 gears and an ARB air Locker *Front Dana 30 Differential with chromoly shafts, 4.11 gears and an ARB Air Locker *35" BFG Mud Terrain Tires with approx half tread *4wp Front Reverse Shackles and 4" Rear suspension *Custom Driveshafts front and rear *Aftermarket Front Seats *Bed Liner on the inside of the tub *Full Front Roll Cage with new grab handles *Custom Rack for the back included (holds a snowboard, cooler or whatever you need to haul - has hitch too) *Power Steering Brace *Tuffy Center Console with Sony Detachable CD player *Aftermarket heavy duty 20 Gallon Fuel Tank *Custom Rock rails under the doors *Bestop Sunrider soft top with all hardware and clear windows Engine: Rebuilt 1990 Chevrolet 350 5.7L V8 with Throttle Body Injection.. The Jeep runs incredible, sounds fantastic and it doesn't matter if it is cold or hot outside it fires right up thanks to it being fuel injected. It runs great, is super peppy and doesn't leak any fluids. I recently upgraded the radiator with a new Aluminum unit and relocated the overflow radiator tank closer to it since there is no longer a starter solenoid on the passenger fender. I also replaced the spark plugs last week. Transmission/Transfer Case: 700R4 Automatic Transmission with overdrive is excellent. It shifts great, without play, grinding, slipping or crunching. It has a rachet shifter on it that makes shifting super easy. The transfer case is a Dana 300. It easily goes into gear high and low range 4wheel drive. Drivetrain/suspension: The Jeep drives excellent with the lift. The front sway bar has disconnects which is great for off road driving. Each leaf spring has U bolt skid plates so you will never have to worry about breaking a u bolt. There aren't any loud clunks or noises, it is very smooth. The drivetrain is perfectly set up with ARB Air locking differentials, 4.11 gears and chromoly shafts. The power steering is super sensitive and is very easy to steer. The power brake booster was replaced in September and although the brakes work good you have to let the jeep warm up or pump them before for best results. I have driven this 600 miles without a problem. I think it may need to get the system bled for better operation. Interior Controls/Switches: Everything in the interior works great except the factory tach and intermittently the windshield wipers. There is an aftermarket tach on the steering column that works great. The sony CD player/radio is in the center console. There are front dash speakers and rear 6x9s by the roll bar. The Tuffy console adds security however I do not have the key for it. The fuel, speedometer, heater odometer, blinkers, horn, lights etc all work as well. Paint/Body/Rust: The paint is the original Black and original Laredo Striping. The paint is beautiful and very reflective, shiny and lots of luster but still 30 years old and has minor blemishes. The rear fender flares are a custom fit and from a Jeep Wrangler YJ. The Jeep is rust free except for some minor surface rust on the windshield frame hinges. It also has some rock chips on the windshield frame. The frame is rust free and has never been repaired. Behind the passenger rear flare there is some cracking, looks like there was a little body work completed at one time but unsure when exactly. Interior: The interior is nice, the front captains chairs are aftermarket black leather. They are only a couple months old and in excellent condition. There is no rear seat or carpet. The inside of the tub has been bed lined. The dash pad does not have any cuts and lastly. Soft Top/Doors: The black soft top is in excellent condition and a bestop sun rider. The doors do not have any rust, the windows roll up and down very easily and the locks work from the inside. Unfortunately I do not have a key for the doors. The doors both have a couple deep scratches and misc light scratches, chips and the drivers side has a little defect. The wing windows open and close with ease and the seal tight. Additional Photos: I will try to post a link to photobucket and periodically update the album. I just tried to add one on this auction but eBay doesn't allow them anymore. (I will post photos on my photobucket that are more up close) Overall: This is a beautiful Jeep and ready to go and a classic that is turn key and ready to go. It would make the perfect weekend warrior, beach runner or mountain adventurer. The CJ7 is used and 30 years old, it may have blemishes, scratches, nicks etc that I didn't capture on my camera. Overall the condition is beautiful! I do my best to illustrate the condition, I may have missed something so be sure to ask all questions you have prior to bidding or winning the Jeep. The Jeep is being sold as is, where is, without warranty or guarantees. I am not required for your state emission or safety inspections including Colorado. Shipping: If you are out of state and need to have this Jeep shipped, call M&E Auto Transport #606-354-3643. Michael is great to work with and offers competitive pricing, quick pickup and delivery. He helped me ship this Jeep back to Colorado from California in February. Conclusion: A $500 non refundable deposit is due within 24 hours of the conclusion of the auction via paypal. All sales are final. The final payment must be received within 7 days of auction end time. Payment options include cash upon pickup, Electronic Bank Transfer or Wire Transfer. I have sold multiple cars on ebay and can provide references if necessary. I reserve the right to remove the auction at anytime as this Jeep is listed for sale locally as well. If you have any questions or would like to know anything more or make an offer feel free to calling or texting. Many of my auctions end with a simple phone call. #720-295-3372 |

2020 Land Rover Defender vs. 2020 Jeep Wrangler: How they compare on paper
Tue, Sep 10 2019For ages, the Jeep Wrangler has had the serious off-road SUV market in America all to itself, especially when it comes to two-door variants. But competition is coming, and the first on its way is the 2020 Land Rover Defender, which was just revealed at the Frankfurt Motor Show. Each packages retro looks and impressive off-road capability, but does one have an advantage? We decided to take a look into each SUV's specifications and compare them on their engines, drivetrains, interior space and towing among other things, to see how they stack up. Since both SUVs are offered in two-door and four-door versions, we've made sure to feature both versions. You can find all the vital stats in the chart below, followed by more in-depth analysis. Engines and drivetrains The Land Rover is the clear high-performance option of these two SUVs. Its base turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder, offered only in the four-door Defender 110, is more powerful than either of the gas engines offered on the Jeep Wrangler. The Wrangler's four-cylinder matches it on torque, at least. The optional turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six in the Defender makes over 100 more horsepower and pound-feet of torque than either Jeep gas engine. But if you're looking for diesel propulsion, along with its associated torque and fuel economy, the Wrangler will be your only option. Final specs haven't been released, but in the Ram 1500, the same engine makes 260 horsepower and 480 pound-feet of torque. Fuel economy hasn't been announced for the Land Rover or the diesel Wrangler. But if fuel economy is a concern, the four-cylinder Wrangler is the most frugal of the SUVs we have numbers on. As for transmissions, the Wrangler is your only choice if you have to have a manual. It's available on both the two-door and four-door models, but only with the V6 engine. If you don't mind an automatic transmission, both SUVs come with variations on the ZF eight-speed auto. Getting the power to the wheels is another area where these two SUVs diverge. The Jeep is very traditional with a standard selectable four-wheel-drive system with two-wheel drive, and low- and high-range four-wheel drive modes. On the Sahara, there's an available full-time four-wheel drive mode, but the other modes are still available. On the Land Rover, you get full-time four-wheel drive, the same kind used on the Land Rover Range Rover.
Best car infotainment systems: From UConnect to MBUX, these are our favorites
Sun, Jan 7 2024Declaring one infotainment system the best over any other is an inherently subjective matter. You can look at quantitative testing for things like input response time and various screen load times, but ask a room full of people that have tried all car infotainment systems what their favorite is, and you’re likely to get a lot of different responses. For the most part, the various infotainment systems available all share a similar purpose. They aim to help the driver get where they're going with navigation, play their favorite tunes via all sorts of media playback options and allow folks to stay connected with others via phone connectivity. Of course, most go way beyond the basics these days and offer features like streaming services, in-car performance data and much more. Unique features are aplenty when you start diving through menus, but how they go about their most important tasks vary widely. Some of our editors prefer systems that are exclusively touch-based and chock full of boundary-pushing features. Others may prefer a back-to-basics non-touch system that is navigable via a scroll wheel. You can compare it to the phone operating system wars. Just like some prefer Android phones over iPhones, we all have our own opinions for what makes up the best infotainment interface. All that said, our combined experience tells us that a number of infotainment systems are at least better than the rest. WeÂ’ve narrowed it down to five total systems in their own subcategories that stand out to us. Read on below to see our picks, and feel free to make your own arguments in the comments. Best infotainment overall: UConnect 5, various Stellantis products Ram 1500 Uconnect Infotainment System Review If thereÂ’s one infotainment system that all of us agree is excellent, itÂ’s UConnect. It has numerous qualities that make it great, but above all else, UConnect is simple and straightforward to use. Ease of operation is one of the most (if not the single most) vital parts of any infotainment system interface. If youÂ’re expected to be able to tap away on a touchscreen while driving and still pay attention to the road, a complex infotainment system is going to remove your attention from the number one task at hand: driving. UConnect uses a simple interface that puts all of your key functions in a clearly-represented row on the bottom of the screen. Tap any of them, and it instantly pulls up that menu.
