2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport XJ, 4.0L, 4WD, 4 Door, 151k, Automatic with snow tires + summer tires, PA Inspected thru 9/2014.

Runs good and has been reliable for me for the 2+ years I have owned it. Body and frame seem solid, only very minor rust at the bottom of the doors (passes PA inspection). 4WD system works well. It includes two complete sets of wheels and tires. The summer tires/ steel wheels are OK and pass PA inspection. The winter tires shown in the pictures are Firestone Winterforce and are almost like new (less than 2k miles) and are also mounted on their own steel rims. I found that it is un-stopable in the snow with these tires even in 12+ inches of snow.

The Good:

Engine / transmission / drive system is strong and has been reliable. All the fluids were changed with in the last year (engine oil, brake fluid, transfer case, front and rear difs, and antifreeze).

Has new Monroe Air shocks on the back along with a Class III hitch

Has a new muffler

Had a new radiator, water pump, hoses, Hello Fog lamps, and serpentine belt 2 years ago.

The Bad:

Check Engine light comes on for P155 code which is the after Cat oxygen sensor. That sensor only verifies the cat is working for emissions, so the Jeep runs fine. I drove it less than 5K miles a year, so it is emissions exempt.

Some times I get a code for Cylinder #6 misfire but its seems to come and go and only effects it at idle (not a problem under load). I put fuel injection cleaner thru it and it seemed to fix it.

Slight rust at the bottom of the doors, but it does pass PA inspection.

It had AC, but it is long gone. The plumbing and condenser are missing. The AC compressor is still there, but I don't know if it works.

The Ugly:

The body is decent, but has scratches and dings from 150K miles and 13 years. I don't think it has ever been wrecked.

It has two added transmission coolers that I added to deal with towing a 3000 lb boat. It works great but doesn't look the best mounted on front of the radiator.

The interior is mostly OK, but the driver seat is wearing.

Everything works electrically except the front speakers for the radio. The back speakers are Kenwood and sound good.

Local Pickup only, would prefer cash as the time of pick up.

Jeep dealer buries WWII Willys GP in showroom floor

Tue, 04 Nov 2014

The Willys MB Jeep earned icon status during World War II thanks to its ruggedness, simplicity and go-anywhere ability. Following the war, it didn't take long for the handy vehicles to be scooped up by the public, and a brand slowly grew around the vehicles that has continued to thrive. Fast-forward to present day, where it's not uncommon for auto dealers to try to grab some of the magic of yesteryear by displaying classic models to connect customers with their brands' proud histories. Now, a Canadian Chrysler Group dealer is taking that notion to the extreme by actually making a vintage WWII Jeep part of its foundation.
Bay King Chrysler in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, recently completed its new showroom, and the franchise really wanted to show its dedication to the Jeep brand. As dealer principal Jamie Richter tells Autoblog, the inspiration for the Jeep installation came from his brother, who became fascinated with a home that had a glass floor looking down into its wine cellar. The company already had the 1943 Willys MB to display, but it had originally planned to build a jungle gym around it for customers' kids. Now, the classic is literally in the floor as customers enter. Richter tells Autoblog that customer reaction so far has been "fantastic."
It's certainly a novel way to bring people into the showroom, and seemingly a nice nod not only to Jeep, but to the men and women who served in the war. If you want to see more about how the Jeep was actually installed and what it looks like, check out this video.

Watch this Jeep Willys return to its birthplace after 70 years

Sun, 23 Jun 2013

Earlier this month, a very significant Jeep was celebrated at the Toledo North Assembly plant. No, it wasn't the upcoming reincarnation of the Jeep Cherokee, but instead it was a 1943 Willys MB that visited the Toledo grounds where it had been built exactly 70 years ago to the day.
Of course, the actual building where the MBs rolled off the assembly line before heading to Europe for World War II no longer exists, but that didn't stop Italian owner Vittorio Argento from having the vehicle shipped to the US to make its trek back to its birth place. According to Chrysler, Argento's MB is still 95-percent original and it drove 1,000 miles from New Jersey to Toledo.
The whole adventure was chronicled on a blog aptly named A Jeep Comes Home. Scroll down for a brief video from Chrysler and for some photos of the Toledo visit and be sure to read more at Argento's blog.

2018 Jeep Wrangler will have an aluminum hood and doors, leaked memo says

Fri, Sep 16 2016

Earlier this year, FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne revealed that 2018 Jeep Wrangler would feature a heavy dose of aluminum, though he didn't specify how. Now, JL Wrangler Forums says the Wrangler will use the material for the hood and the doors, citing an internal bulletin from aluminum supplier Alcoa. According to the forum, the company says the next-gen Wrangler will utilize Aloca's C6A1 (an internal name) high form alloy. The SUV will also get 6022 and A951 from Alcoa that will be used on the SUV's front and rear doors, as well as for the hood. Alcoa's C6A1 is the company's new high form alloy, while its 6022 alloy sheet can be found on things like a car's hood, door, or closure panels. Alcoa's A951 is the company's pre-treatment aluminum sheet bonding technology that it uses on automobiles. "A team in the Farmington Hills (Michigan, USA) Aerospace and Automotive Products group is leading a new profitable growth opportunity with the 2018 Jeep Wrangler program. The next generation Jeep becomes the first to utilize our C6A1 high form alloy; we are currently the only supplier of this high form product. Alcoa will also supply 6022 and A951, including front and rear door inners, hood outer and inner." As Marchionne pointed out earlier this year, the 2018 Wrangler won't be made entirely out of aluminum. So Alcoa's contribution to the upcoming SUV's doors and hood could be the only components that use the lightweight metal – or Jeep could be using another aluminum supplier for other parts. Large changes lie ahead for the 2018 Wrangler, which include a pickup version, new engines, and aluminum. But we do know that the next Wrangler is that it will be built in Toledo, OH, as FCA announced plans to spend $1.05 billion to retool the Wrangler factory, while also adding another site in Illinois earlier this year.
