This Jeep Wagoneer Limited has just undergone a full restoration by Zephyr's Speed Shop of Enoch Utah. It started with a motor and transmission swap. The drivetrain is a 5.3L Vortec motor and a 4L60E transmission that came out of a 2003 Chevy Tahoe with about 90,000 miles. The engine and transmission were then rebuilt by Anderson Machine Shop and St George Transmission of Cedar City Utah. The transmission was built for towing and heavy duty applications. By use of an adapter/clocking ring, this Jeep has retained its NP208 transfer case (that was rebuilt and resealed) for full selectable 2hi, 4hi, N, 4lo 4-wheel drive capabilities. New custom heavy duty drive-shafts were also installed. The front Dana 44 and rear AMC 20 axles were inspected and resealed. New fluids throughout the vehicle. New brakes, rotors and drums all around. Stops great. The front axle was rebuilt with high performance brass Warn hubs. Suspension was all rebuilt with Procomp shocks on all corners and a small 2” lift. This Jeep now has the ride height of a stock Tahoe or Yukon. All of the parts required to perform this drive train swap properly came from Novak Adapters out of Logan Utah. The engine mounts, wiring harness, computer tune, air intake, headers, adapters, aluminum radiator/electric fan assembly and everything else needed for this swap all came from Novak. Their parts are great quality and designed and engineered for this exact application. Custom 3" Magnaflow exhaust is a nice and quiet system that sounds great. With these performance parts, this motor is putting out about 350 horsepower. Tons of power and torque to tow and off-road to your hearts content. This Wagoneer also gets great gas mileage at about 23 miles per gallon on the freeway at 80 mph (2000 RPM's).
The paint color is Heritage Brown and looks great. This Jeep is rust free. The undercarriage has been lined with truck bed liner. The interior is Pecan and Briarwood two-tone leather. Custom leather wrapped dash, seats, door panels (the steering wheel still needs new leather wrap). New carpet, custom floormats, and headliner. The entire interior has been covered in Dynamat prior to interior installation, is sealed and is very quiet. All new 31X10.5R15 BFGoodrich All Terrain tires. This is a beautiful Jeep that runs nice and smooth down the road. I have entered several car shows with it since it was finished 4 months ago and have won two trophies. A second and a third place in the “Custom Truck” class at two separate shows.

I have been in love with the Jeep Wagoneer body style for a long time. I wanted to have one built as if it was a modern day car. This Jeep has all the options one would want. Power seats, power windows and locks (a few windows run slow from the new weatherstripping). Fuel injection and modern drive train. New proper ride height. I believe this is a great representation of what Jeep would be doing if they were still making this same body style.

There are a few things that I ran out of money before they were finished. The cruise control has not been set up. The switch and wiring is there, but the “box” will need to be installed and hooked up under the hood (about $200). The AC system is also all there. The compressor, dryer, condenser, everything is there. It needs custom hoses made and to be charged ($500). There are no speakers in the Jeep. The CD player is installed and speaker wire is run to each speaker location, but there are no speakers installed ($200). Emergency events kept me from having this car finished and are forcing this sale.

Let me know if you have any questions or if you want more pictures.

7 months later, Jeep 'trailer hitch' recall still stalled

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

For the past few years, Chrysler and its CEO, Sergio Marchionne, have gone head-to-head with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and its boss, David Strickland, over the government safety agency's request for Chrysler to recall almost three-million Jeep vehicles due to what NHTSA says is a safety issue that has caused at least 51 deaths. After a three-year investigation and Chrysler's initial refusal to issue a recall because it deemed the vehicles safe and built to the day's federal requirements, last summer, the two parties compromised on a "voluntary campaign" to inspect 1.56 million vehicles, those being the 1992 to 1998 Grand Cherokee and 2002 to 2007 Liberty.
Those vehicles were designed with their gas tanks between the rear axle and the bumper, and NHTSA says that in rear-end collisions, damage to the fuel tank has caused fires responsible for those 51 deaths. The compromise reached last summer was that Chrysler would inspect 1.56 million vehicles and, "if necessary, provide an upgrade to the rear structure of the vehicle." Practically speaking, that meant Chrysler would replace aftermarket trailer hitches, but would take no action if a vehicle had a factory-installed hitch or an aftermarket hitch from Mopar.
A report in The Detroit News says the "voluntary campaign" is just now getting under way, with Chrysler saying last week that the design of the replacement part had been finalized and it was tooling up "to deliver the required volume." Seven months later, still in question is whether NHTSA will crash-test the fix engineered by Chrysler, noteworthy because not only did the vehicles in question pass every safety standard necessary to be cleared for sale at the time, there are still questions (to those of us on the outside) as to how the Jeeps at issue fare among their peers in such incidents. Either way, Chrysler and NHTSA apparently still disagree on the efficacy of the remedy itself: the carmaker says it might help in low-speed crashes but not high-speed collisions, a position the NHTSA is at odds with. All of this means the campaign doesn't yet have an end in sight.

Another crazy custom Jeep Wrangler spotted in Morocco

Sun, 03 Mar 2013

What in the world is the vehicle you see above? Well, um... yeah. We have no idea. According to the video description from YouTube, however, it's a modified Jeep Wrangler, and it comes from the same person who created the equally insane side-by-side merged Wrangler you saw here.
We can clearly make out the Wrangler-shaped passenger compartment up top, but as for the other bits and pieces that make up this rather amazing machine, your guess is as good as ours. At the very least, it seems to us that the car's wheelbase has been given a significant stretch, and the grille may have come from an International LoneStar Harley-Davidson Special Edition semi truck.
What other components are sourced from the massive International hauler? No idea. We suggest you check out the video below and draw your own conclusions. Oh, and if you've got any other ideas, feel free to let us know in the Comments.

Chrysler Recalls 350K Vehicles To Fix Ignition Switches

Thu, Sep 25 2014

Chrysler is recalling nearly 350,000 cars and SUVs to fix ignition switches that could unexpectedly shut off the engines. The recall covers 2008 Jeep Commander and Grand Cherokee SUVs, Chrysler 300 and Dodge Charger sedans, and Dodge Magnum wagons. All were built before May 12, 2008. Chrysler says the ignitions may not fully return to the "on" position after being started. The switches could move to "accessory" or "off." That could shut off the engine and knock out power-assisted steering and other features. Chrysler knows of one crash and no injuries from the problem. It's telling people to use the key alone in the ignition and confirm that switches have returned to "on" after starting their cars. Chrysler is investigating the cause. Customers will be notified when repairs are ready. Related Gallery The Trucks And SUVs Consumers Are Liking Most View 11 Photos
