1988 Jeep Cherokee XJ 2 door. I have owned this rig for 11 years now and have decided to part ways with it. I have two young kids and don't have the time to play with it or finish it. Just put in a custom built 4.6l short arm Hesco stroker (www.hesco.us) with more than 4k invested into it. Lots of detail put into the looks and function of the engine and drivetrain. Engine runs really strong and tight. No leaks, perfect compression. It was professionally built and assembled by Mopars Engine's West aka Dave's Engine machining in Newark Ca. Look them up. It currently sits on a Rusty's 6.5" custom built long-arm kit up front with a steering conversion kit with the stock Dana 30. Front axle is strong and rebuilt. New kingpins, new steering ball joints, recently new brakes and pads, fresh fluids. Rear axle is a stock Dana 35c with a fresh set of 4:88 Yukon gears carrier, bearings, seals, and gears. Transfer case was just rebuilt with a new chain and pump along with an advanced adapters SYE and new Tom Woods shaft. It’s got a few dings/dents here and there typical of its age and getting door dings in parking lots. Roof has pealing, but the body is untouched and has not been cut up. Interior has SCAT racing bucket seats and several Auto meter gauges added including a wide band system for the motor. ZERO rust. Lots of time and money spent keeping the underside painted and clean looking. Never off road. Hell of a good rig for someone to quickly wrap up and hit the Rubicon with or just have fun going to work in. Lots of other stuff done that I know I forgot to mention. Lots of receipts to prove it. Currently registered nonoperational (Needs to be smogged or Green Tagged here). Runs and drives awesome. Extremely fun. More power than the little jeeps needs. All smog equipment  (Bolt in Catalytic Converter, Charcoal gCanister, I.E,) is included. If I had the time and money I would do it myself. Call or contact for details. Can deliver to Sacramento CA area if the price is right, other than that, the Jeep is as is and buyer is responsible for pick up/delivery. Can take more photos for serious buyers.

 

Here is an old album from about 3 years ago that contains photos of the Jeep and engine build. White Jeep in album is already sold.

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.

How to update and secure a vulnerable Chrysler Uconnect system

Sat, Jul 25 2015

If you own one of the 1.4 million vehicles affected by the recent Chrysler software recall, you may want to watch this video. In it, we explain how to get the latest infotainment software loaded onto the 8.4-inch Uconnect system. The recall was a response to the findings of researchers who were able to hack into and remotely control a 2014 Jeep Cherokee through its cellular connection. Although Fiat Chrysler has worked with Sprint to plug most of the holes on the carrier side, there are still some vulnerabilities that only this latest software version can patch. Owners have three options to get the update: download it now, wait for a USB stick in the mail, or take the vehicle to an FCA dealer. Chrysler will be sending USB sticks loaded with the software update to customers. Anyone with an internet connection and a USB stick of their own with at least 4 GB capacity can speed things up by downloading the patch from the Uconnect website. We cover that process from start to finish in the video, with the final portion still applicable to those using the FCA-supplied USB stick. If after watching this you still don't want to tackle the patch yourself, you can take your vehicle to the dealer to have it done. Also note that this process is the same for all Uconnect updates, not just the one patching the exploits. Our demonstrator vehicle is a 2015 Ram 1500 pickup. The procedure should be very similar on other products with the 8.4-inch Uconnect system, with only the location of the USB port varying. Once you have the USB stick with the software on it – either after having downloaded it yourself or receiving it in the mail from Chrysler – the installation process is relatively simple. It takes about 15 minutes to perform the update; we edited out the wait in the video. To check whether or not your car's 8.4-inch Uconnect system is running the latest software, go to System Information on the touch screen's Settings page and look at Software Version. The update related to the recall is version 15.17.5. Related Video: Recalls Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM Safety Technology Infotainment Videos Original Video hacking
