For Sale 1989 Jeep Cherokee. This was going to be a restoration project/beach buggie project that has fallen through. The body and frame are solid, with out any major rust or damage. It will start up and run but the cylinder head gasket is bad and causes it to run hot. The transmission does shift and move. I have not driven this vehicle more than around the yard to move it out of the way. The four wheel drive does lock in an turn all the wheels without any odd noises or sounds, both high and low gear I did check. The worse part is, since its been sitting, some kids decided to spray paint the outside since it was sitting. The original color was blue which is still visible from the roof. The spray paint really take away from the appeal of the vehicle. The brake system on it will need work, the bosch style abs system is bad which causes hard brake pedal, I was going to ditch that system and install conventional power booster and master cylinder combo. I put a steering column in it because the original one was worn out and had a loose tilt unit, I never finished reinstalling he underside of the dash yet, as can be seen in the pictures because the modules are hanging. The interior is very clean for the age and mileage, the seats are all in good shape with not major flaws. The headliner is not there, the vehicle does have a sunroof that does NOT leak. The Jeep does already have a slight lift on it, front springs and rear blocks, they sway bar links need to be replaced, they are currently not hooked up.

So here's what it primarily needs.

1) Motor work- either a rebuild or repair the head gasket

2) Brake work-replace the power assist unit

3) Paint-Not much body work if any, Sand Prime and Repaint

4) Headliner-non existent at the moment

Please ask questions prior to bidding, I will respond as quick as I can. The purchaser must arrange pick up, I am located in Seaford, Delaware. There is NO warranty on the jeep, sales/bids are final.

Chrysler investing $20M in Toledo plant to support 9-speed auto production

Sun, 28 Apr 2013

In 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.

2018 Jeep Wrangler spy shots give us best look yet

Wed, May 18 2016

A couple weeks ago, we got a fairly comprehensive set of 2018 Jeep Wrangler spy shots. For fans of the JK-series Jeeps, it was all good news: the basic Wrangler Unlimited formula and shape is present and accounted for, meaning this new Wrangler will be an evolution of the current SUV, rather than a ground-up reimagining. The new shots give us some more detail than we had previously, and let us point out some JL Wrangler features that reaffirm FCA's conservative approach. First of all, the heavy camouflage doesn't manage to fully cover the exposed door hinges, just like in the current model, so those are a safe bet for the production version. The raked-back windshield might lose its ability to fold down, we've heard. The JL remains a body-on-frame truck with a solid front axle, evidenced by the front diff peeking out and the radius arms connected to them. The large exterior mirrors also appear to be carryover items, and the taillights look indistinguishable from the current JK. We expect the front fascia to remain clearly recognizable as a Wrangler, but don't be surprised if the headlight and sidemarkers incorporate some LED elements as a nod to current trends. Remember, the JL will spawn a pickup version, and will slim down for better fuel economy with some aluminum elements, likely incorporated in the body. We expect the Pentastar V6 to carry over, but be joined by a diesel and a mild hybrid at some point in the future. It'll be built alongside its JK predecessor for a short time in Toledo, Ohio.

2014 Jeep Cherokee: Introduction

Tue, 27 May 2014

When we look back at some of the more shocking product launches of recent yeras, the Jeep Cherokee is certainly high up on the list. And we aren't just talking about its off-the-wall, polarizing design.
For starters, it brought back the iconic Cherokee nameplate - something Jeep enthusiasts have coveted for ages. But beyond that, it brought a new evolution for the Jeep brand. After all, the Cherokee is car-based - using the same compact platform that underpins the Dodge Dart and Chrysler 200. It has a greater focus on technology and refinement than ever before, in an effort to appeal to a new crop of Jeep customers. And powering it all is a new (optional) V6 engine paired with an equally new nine-speed automatic transmission.
Can the Cherokee's car-based roots still allow for a vehicle that's superb when the going gets tough? Will its design still be a love/hate affair in one year's time, or will it start to blend in? Is the powertrain strong enough to not only support the needs of daily driving and road trips, but blaze a few trails as well? We're aiming to answer all these questions, and more, over the next 12 months. Welcome to the Autoblog long-term garage, Cherokee.
