111,xxx miles, Shell Rotella synthetic run for the last 11k. Engine has received a stellar bill of health via oil analysis from Blackstone labs. Motor was recently tuned up (plugs, wires, cap, rotor) and I installed a new distributer at the same time. Jeep was lifted/axle swapped at 100k miles, I've owned the jeep since 86k, and have worked on it since ~60k miles. I bought it from a friend and I am the third owner. Maintenance was always done on time; it was dealer maintained by the first owner. The Jeep has been wheeled but never beaten on. There are only 3 actual wheeling trips on this rig. Here is the modification list: Engine/Driveline: 99+ intake manifold THOR cowl intake APN header Catalytic convertor replaced with OEM at 90k Flowmaster 50 muffler Brown Dog poly motor mounts and engine brackets Poly trans mount New CSF radiator and fan clutch within the last year Valve cover gasket replaced less than 1k miles ago AW4 filter screen replaced and fluid flushed last summer, temp gauge and external cooler fluid installed and it runs at 100F on the highway, never gets into the yellow around town. New A/C compressor but the system has a slow leak somewhere, I charge it up in late May and it lasts the whole summer (works great when charged). 231 has HD SYE (not sure of brand) Front axle: 1978 ford HP44 5.13 Yukon gears, OX locker, Reid knuckles, Nitro alloy shafts and 760x joints Parts Mike highsteer knuckle on passenger side for true crossover steering Tie rod is heims over the knuckle, drag link is TREs, trackbar uses heims as well. PSC hydro assist kit with cooler and delphi "fast" ratio box... faster than stock, not the race box however. warn premium hubs, stage 8 locking locking spindle nuts All seals, bearings, brakes, ball joints etc are new Custom truss and inner C gussets, uses factory XJ/TJ/ZJ control arm bracket geometry Rear axle: late 80s ford D60-ISU 5.13 Yukon gears, Lock-Right locker, disc brake kit (Ford 1/2 ton rotors, 1/2 ton chevy calipers, Impala SS pads), factory 35 spline shafts, Ballistic cover and axle bridge Suspension: Rock Krawler 4 link kit, Deaver 5.5 coils and Deaver G9 leaf springs... the best you can buy for a Cherokee XJ HDOffroad shackle relocators and RE 1.5" shackles Custom valved Bilstein 9100 shocks... 11" travel 2.5 weld top fronts with remote resi and 13" travel 2.0 rears with remote resi. rear shocks are threaded for coilover hardware. Prothane bumpstops I also added a Dodge 2500 master cylinder and Wilwood adjustable proportioning valve for extra power and adjustment of the bigger brakes. Jeep is plated front to back with HDOffroad stiffeners, with extra stiffening on the inside, outside, and bottom of steering box area. Jeep is also caged (not finished) with a hybrid-style cage using 1.75x.120 DOM tube. Rockers were cut out and replaced with 2x5x.25 wall box tube. Other extras include a TNT belly skid, DPG gas tank skid, JCR corner guards with LEDs, Dirtbound Offroad rear bumper, and custom front bumper/crossmember replacement. The factory front crossmember was cut out and was replaced with the 2x5x.25" box tube front end. It is also drilled and ready for a winch to be mounted behind the bumper. Headlights are Hella DOT H4 headlight upgrades with harness, and there are Hella micro DE fog lamps cut into the front bumper. I added LED rock lights and reverse lights as well as a LED lightbar (which may or may not be included with the jeep, depending on purchase price). There is a prime4x4 switch panel in the jeep as well as a marine fuse box in the engine bay for extra accessories. Also has heated mirrors, factory overhead console, LED interior lights, and a Viper remote start/keyless entry system. Sub/Headunit/Speakers may or may not be included depending on selling price. Sub is a 10" Rockford P3 driven by an Infinity amp, Kenwood Excelon deck w/iPod control, and (4) Polk db 6.5" speakers. C02 tank and tow rope show in trunk NOT INCLUDED. Has brand new hatch struts. Tires are 35" MTZs on H2 wheels, tires were bought new when the lift was installed. I have extra parts/spares/fab parts and DOM tube which can be added to the jeep as well when it sells. I have a spare 35" BFG AT with 30-40% tread left on another H2 wheel as a spare, and have a 35" MTZ with 10-20% tread unmounted. I built this Jeep to be able to drive across the country, go offroad, and drive back home. It was built for 37" tires and will handle those comfortably. It can drive on the highway at 75 MPH without issue.... No vibes, no wobbles. It is very easy to drive and it 100% daily-driveable. It has it quirks like all built Cherokees do, but nothing major. The doors have been modded for easy removal so they are a bit out of alignment but shut just fine normally, there are a few dents/scratches but the Jeep is very clean outside and in. The windshield has a crack but it still passes inspection. The rear is a bit lower than the front right now, but all that needs to be done to fix this is move the shackles forward one hole on the brackets and shims added to the rear to set the pinion angle. This Jeep is a joy to drive onroad and off, but I don't use it anymore so it is time for it to go. I may be forgetting a few details here and there, feel free to ask. Price is negotiable, can include/remove pieces to change price. |

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee gets surprisingly comprehensive update, new diesel power
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Traditionally, automotive journalists can be heard muttering something to the effect of "Geeze, it's about time!" whenever a vehicle's midcycle refresh is revealed. As we routinely see and drive new models many months before the public even claps eyes on them in showrooms - and then go on to tweeze apart their minutia in our daily writings - perhaps some impatience is to be expected. With so much exposure to a given vehicle, it's fair to say we tire of most cars and trucks far more quickly than the average consumer.
The alterations are handsome, if not subtle touches from the "If It Ain't Broke" school of design.
Which is why we're pleased to say "Oh, is it time for that already?" when it comes to the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The current WK2 Grand Cherokee hit the market in 2011 and climbed its way into our hearts with its rugged good looks, go-anywhere capability and surprising refinement. We're not yet tired of its appearance or performance, but even so, we're very glad to see Chrysler giving its flagship Jeep some attention, including a much-anticipated diesel powertrain option and some other economy-minded measures.
NHTSA still mulling crash tests for recalled Jeeps
Thu, 15 Aug 2013Well, no one should ever accuse the government of not giving things plenty of thought. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is still debating whether it will retest any of the 1.56 million 1992 to 1998 Grand Cherokees and 2002 to 2007 Libertys that were part of a recall regarding fires after rear-end collisions. And yes, this debate has been going on for over a month. In other news...
The recall dustup started in early June, when Chrysler took the unusual position of refusing a recall request from NHTSA regarding placement of the fuel tank on the effected vehicles. NHTSA said a collision could cause a fire, a position Chrysler took issue with. Extensive negotiations ensued, with Chrysler agreeing to fit certain Jeeps with trailer hitches, which it said would provide some protection to fuel tanks mounted behind the rear axle in the event of a collision.
Part of the issue rests with the amount of data that needs to be processed, according to The Detroit News. NHTSA administrator David Strickland said during a Washington Auto Press Association meeting, "There's a lot of data and Chrysler is being very cooperative in giving us more data." Until that information has been sorted, it looks like re-testing will still be up for debate.
Fiat Chrysler taps Amazon, Shell execs to fill roles
Fri, Dec 7 2018MILAN — Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is tapping executives from Amazon and Shell Oil Company with previous automotive industry experience to fill its ranks. CEO Mike Manley said in a letter to employees Thursday that Mark Stewart would join FCA as chief operating officer of North America from Amazon, "a company known for its culture of innovation, and obsession with delivering incredible value to customers." At Amazon, Stewart led teams focused on advanced robotics, artificial intelligence and automation methods. He previously was COO of ZF TRW automotive components supplier. Niel Golightly was named head of global communications. He was most recently Shell's vice president for external relations in North and South America, with a focus on reputation, brand and stakeholder engagement beyond communication strategies. He previously held roles at Ford Motor Company. Related Video: Image Credit: REUTERS/Rebecca Cook Hirings/Firings/Layoffs Alfa Romeo Chrysler Dodge Fiat Jeep RAM FCA Amazon shell Mike Manley
