I am relisting my Jeep after fixing it, The governor pressure sensor in the transmission went bad and I couldn't sell it like that. I did some other things as well in the 2 weeks since it was last listed. First off its a clean Platinum silver 5.9 with a few dings and scratches, the hood was plastidipped because of a rust bubble. It has just under 196000 miles on it and runs good, It has 2,000 miles to go until the next oil change. Here's a list of modifications and things replaced in the last month.

Brand new 3.5" rough country lift kit with new shocks

265 bfg mts with 50-60% tread left

np242 swap so its not fulltime 4wd, you can shift into 4wd when needed like regular Cherokees

front axle ujoint shaft swap. to get rid of the cv shafts

new rear pads and drivers side caliper

new cat, o2 sensor and muffler

new headlight housings with silverstar bulbs

new clear corner lenses

fixed coolant temp message on the electronic display, common problem with a bad solder joint.

new transmission speed sensor. and governor pressure sensor

transmission is a jasper rebuild by previous owner

swapped rear axle assembly front another 5.9 s the pinion bearing went on the old one.

swapped steering boxes due to a leak from the same 5.9

No rips or tears in the leather, the only 2 electronic things I noticed that doesnt work is the drivers heated seat and the rear wiper. The headliner is starting to sag in a few spots(see photos), there is very little rust on this Jeep under the doors but it isn't noticeable unless you crawl under it, My plan was to find another hood but no luck yet. The suspension is brand new, I currently do not have a front driveshaft in it due to vibrations, I will include the cv front shaft but it should be upgraded to a ujoint front shaft out of a 6cyl ZJ. I do not need 2 vehicles so this one needs to go, It really is a nice looking Jeep Id like to see I go to a good home where it will be finished up. With a little TLC it will be perfect. Any questions please feel free to ask. The vehicle is being sold as is, with no warranty etc. Low reserve bid now to get a hard to find 5.9 ZJ!

NHTSA still mulling crash tests for recalled Jeeps

Thu, 15 Aug 2013

Well, 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.

Win a car while supporting a charity this holiday season

Thu, Dec 9 2021

Autoblog may receive a share from purchases made via links on this page. Pricing and availability are subject to change. No donation or payment necessary to enter or win this sweepstakes. See official rules on Omaze.  The leaves have fallen, there is a crispness to the air and there have already been multiple forecasts of snow, which can only mean one thing: We're coming up on Christmas. While you've been busy thinking about what kind of gifts you're going to give your loved ones, we here at Autoblog have been deciding which dream car we'd like to see in our driveway on Christmas morning. A car for Christmas does seem a bit extreme and expensive, but thanks to these Omaze sweepstakes, it doesn't have to break the bank. Here are the current sweepstakes we'd like to win this holiday season. Win a DeLorean DMC-12 - Enter at Omaze James Riswick, West Coast Editor: Let me be clear, the DeLorean is a pretty terrible car. Its speedometer doesn't even go up to the fabled 88 mph. Seriously, look at the pictures: tops out at 85. Also, who services a DeLorean? And how much would it cost to maintain one? $AlloftheMoney or just $MostoftheMoney? So owning it could be a total headache, but at least by winning one through Omaze, you'd be relieved of the financial burden of buying one in the first place. You'd also get the chance to own one of the most iconic cars of all time, one that transcends car enthusiasm and is instantly recognizable by everyone as the "Back to the Future" car. Plus, "everyone" doesn't know that the DeLorean was actually a pretty terrible car. So, I already own James Bond's car from 1995, why not Doc Brown's from 1985? Win a 2021 Bentley Bentayga V8 - Enter at Omaze Eddie Sabatini, Production Manager: Why am I choosing a +$200K Bentley SUV? Because even if I could afford one I'd never be able to wrap my head around spending money on one. So why not try to win one by donating what I can afford to a good cause? I first saw the Bentley Bentayga up close and personal at the Frankfurt Motor Show (I forget which year but I'll never forget this SUV). And although it looks like the Bentayga Omaze is offering up doesn't have the opulent tailgate setup I fell in love with when I saw it in Frankfurt, I'd still enter to win. Win a 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda - Enter at Omaze Byron Hurd, Editor: Few automotive marketing efforts stick out in my head more than the Mercedes-Benz holiday spots and magazine placements.

Is It An Off-Road Adventure Or Just A Walk In The Park?
I remember having to get out and lock hubs and shift into neutral to engage low range.
Coming off press previews of the 2013 Land Rover Range Rover and the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee that involved some heavy-duty off-road rock climbing, I'm simply amazed at the capabilities that these vehicles possess. But even more impressive (or troubling depending on your perspective) is the relative ease with which you can operate these vehicles in seemingly impossible terrain.
