1997 Jeep Cherokee Sport 2 Door 5 Speed (rare) on 2040-cars
Crestwood, Kentucky, United States

1997 Jeep Cherokee Sport 2 door 5 Speed manual (Rare) Body The body has
plenty of dents/scratches but no paint missing.
There is no rust anywhere and the floors look like new. There are no cracks in the body. All glass in good all around. This Jeep is very rare. It is very difficult to find a rust free 2
door with a 5 speed manual tranny. And
this one you can drive on the highways. Off Road Equipment The Jeep has
a 6.5 Tomken lift kit. Massive adjustable
control arms, adjustable track bar. JKS
sway bar disconnects. Tom Woods driveshaft and slip yoke
eliminator. Detroit locker in rear and
Track Lock diff in front. 4.56 superior
gears, Rusty’s heavy duty steering bar, Bilstein shocks (the most expensive) front
and rear. Warn winch and bumper in front
and Hanson Offroad rear bumper with tire carrier. It has BF Goodrich 35” KM2’s with plenty of
thread left. Mechanics Maintenance
is done all the time to keep this XJ in perfect shape. This jeep does not leak a drop of
anything. It does not use oil. I’ve driven it as far as Maine to attend the
Jeep Jamboree and recently to PA for a trail ride. This is not a trailer queen and can be driven
on the highway at 70 or above. Recently the
front bearings/seals were replaced. All
fluids were changed, all fluids. The
brakes were recently replaced, front and back.
The steering box is OEM with a steering box brace. The cooling system is in great shape and the
Jeep never overheats. The air
conditioner blows frigid air. The motor
(4.0) is very strong and has had the exhaust header replaced with a better
unit. The clutch has been modified so
you can start the Jeep on a hill, in gear, with the clutch out, just like
Wranglers. Very nice. The ball joints and tie rod ends have been
replaced recently. The engine has had
the plugs changed and is not due yet.
Coolant has been recently changed. Mileage is
over 100,000 but who cares, it’s a Jeep.
There is no earthy reason that this XJ won’t last many more years. This Jeep is for sale locally and will be pulled if sold.
Has a salvage title. Was hit and minor damage totaled it. Was fixed and titled. |

Jeep's new Chip Away commercial has us hunting Al Pacino's back catalog
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Chrysler has done a pretty good job as of late turning its television commercials into pep talks or rallying cries, but for its first ad for the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee, it turned to Al Pacino's inspirational speech from the movie Any Given Sunday. In the movie, Pacino's character talks about how football is a game of inches, but the commercial, titled Chip Away, focuses more on the attention to detail that Jeep has exhibited on its updated flagship SUV.
Centering around the newest Grand Cherokee model, the luxurious $47,995 Summit trim level, the commercial shows off some of the hand-stitched leathers and real metal and wood accents found inside the cabin. Check out the new 60-second spot by scrolling below.
Jeep Liberty replacement takes shape
Wed, 16 Jan 2013Now that the Liberty has left us for greener pastures, it's time to start looking into the future of the midsize Jeep model. The next all-new vehicle for the off-road brand will be the SUV you see here, effectively replacing the Liberty, and not necessarily carrying on with that name.
From the sides, the prototype you see here sort of looks like a miniature version of the handsome Grand Cherokee, albeit with a bit more in the way of body sculpting. Up front, the seven-slat grille will be front and center, with completely revised headlamp designs that are reportedly angular and sweep well into the front fenders (you can sort of see what we're talking about in the side profile). That doesn't sound very Jeep-like, but we'll reserve judgment until we, you know, see the thing.
The bigger question with the Liberty replacement will be whether or not its off-road chops will be up to snuff. After all, the two previous generations of Liberty models were body-on-frame traditional SUVs, whereas this new Jeep rides on a larger version of the Dodge Dart platform.
Bring back the Bronco! Trademarks we hope are actually (someday) future car names
Tue, Mar 17 2015Trademark filings are the tea leaves of the auto industry. Read them carefully – and interpret them correctly – and you might be previewing an automaker's future product plans. Yes, they're routinely filed to maintain the rights to an iconic name. And sometimes they're only for toys and clothing. But not always. Sometimes, the truth is right in front of us. The trademark is required because a company actually wants to use the name on a new car. With that in mind, here's a list of intriguing trademark filings we want to see go from paperwork to production reality. Trademark: Bronco Company: Ford Previous Use: The Bronco was a long-running SUV that lived from 1966-1996. It's one of America's original SUVs and was responsible for the increased popularity of the segment. Still, it's best known as O.J. Simpson's would-be getaway car. We think: The Bronco was an icon. Everyone seems to want a Wrangler-fighter – Ford used to have a good one. Enough time has passed that the O.J. police chase isn't the immediate image conjured by the Bronco anymore. Even if we're doing a wish list in no particular order, the Bronco still finds its way to the top. For now (unfortunately), it's just federal paperwork. Rumors on this one can get especially heated. The official word from a Ford spokesman is: "Companies renew trademark filings to maintain ownership and control of the mark, even if it is not currently used. Ford values the iconic Bronco name and history." Trademarks: Aviator, AV8R Company: Ford Previous Use: The Aviator was one of the shortest-run Lincolns ever, lasting for the 2003-2005 model years. It never found the sales success of the Ford Explorer, with which it shared a platform. We Think: The Aviator name no longer fits with Lincoln's naming nomenclature. Too bad, it's better than any other name Lincoln currently uses, save for its former big brother, the Navigator. Perhaps we're barking up the wrong tree, though. Ford has made several customized, aviation themed-Mustangs in the past, including one called the Mustang AV8R in 2008, which had cues from the US Air Force's F-22 Raptor fighter jet. It sold for $500,000 at auction, and the glass roof – which is reminiscent of a fighter jet cockpit – helped Ford popularize the feature. Trademark: EcoBeast Company: Ford Previous Use: None by major carmakers.
