Hi, Up for sale is my 1988 Cherokee. I originally bought the jeep 3 years ago and built it up in California, I moved Illinois and had it shipped back. It spent its entire life, up until this past winter in California, so it has no rust. I have kept all the receipts for this build along with the parts instruction manuals. The odometer says 225,000, but that is only on the body, everything else has been replaced. Here's a list of all that is on it... You can buy it now at $7500, the reserve is set at $6000.

The jeep has been wheeled and is unstoppable, it has some rock rash on the wheels and on the body, but the paint is still glossy and looks great. There are two things that need a little bit of work. There is some interference coming through the speakers, I've been told it just needs a better ground. It also needs an alignment. It drives straight and tracks fine, but the steering wheel is cocked at a strange angle. If you have any other questions or want more pictures, let me know. Thanks for looking.
Maybe I should have posted this better, the body, mainly just the odometer has 225000 miles on it. The axles, transmission, transfer case, engine, lift, and basically everything else has about 10,000 miles on them. The axles were fully rebuilt at a shop in california called the rear end shop, new seals, new bearings, new gears and new lockers. The transmission was bought new along with the bellhousing, slave cylinder and throwout bearing. Transfer case is out of a 2006 jeep liberty and was rebuilt when the slip-yoke eliminator was installed. Tom woods driveshaft was purchased new when i bought the lift. The engine has been completely torn down, and rebuilt at tech machine in Livermore, ca. It has been bored 30 over and is running a comp cams xtreme 4x4 camshaft for big torque. if you have any other legit questions, ask away. Thanks.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Diesel and SRT climb onto stage
Mon, 14 Jan 2013This is indeed a case of not knowing how much we wanted something until it arrived. We've been big fans of the Jeep Grand Cherokee ever since the new model arrived a couple of years ago, and while the update you see here might seem just a slight refresh, it's actually much more than that.
For starters, the 2014 Grand Cherokee marks the return of a diesel model here in the States, with Chrysler's new 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 under the hood, churning out 240 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque, mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Of course, all of the Grand Cherokee's usual off-road goodies are on hand, with moderate tweaks to make it an even more capable vehicle when the going gets rough. Both the gasoline-fed 3.6-liter V6 and 5.7-liter V8 get the new eight-speed auto, as well.
The high-performance Grand Cherokee SRT also trudges on into the new model year, with very subtle tweaks found underneath the aggressive, slightly redesigned sheetmetal. The 6.4-liter Hemi V8 also gets eight-speed gearing, which Chrysler says will improve not only 0-60 times, but mid-range performance as well. Bring it on, we say.

Jeep gunning to build 250,000 Cherokees a year
Thu, 21 Mar 2013Contrary to what a certain politician may have said last year about Jeep moving to China, the automaker is in fact doing the opposite, with plans to greatly increase the production capacity at its Toledo North Assembly plant in Ohio. The Detroit Free Press is reporting that there are big plans for the 2014 Jeep Cherokee and Toledo North, as a local union president has informed the newspaper that Chrysler is planning to produce around 250,000 examples of the new midsize utility per year.
To put this number into context, 250,000 units is more than what Jeep Liberty sales totaled here over the last three years combined. Even taking into consideration that the 250,000 units will be distributed beyond US borders, that's an ambitious volume figure full-stop - and that's without taking into consideration the new Cherokee's love/hate design. In its favor, though, Jeep is making remarkable inroads globally as of late, and the Cherokee's size could work well in emerging markets. To get that kind of output from Toledo's Cherokee assembly line, Chrysler will reportedly hire 1,105 new workers - that's in addition to the 200 workers already being hired to build the popular Jeep Wrangler, which is itself expected to top 220,000 units this year.
