1982 Jeep Wagoneer Limited 5.3l Vortec 4l60e Swap Fully Restored on 2040-cars
Cedar City, Utah, United States
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).
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.

Jeep to stop using bad Takata airbag inflators next week
Tue, Jun 21 2016FCA is gradually ceasing to produce vehicles equipped with Takata airbag inflaters found to be inherently faulty. These airbags, which lack a certain drying agent, have been linked with dangerous premature ruptures. According to FCA, the only vehicle still in production with the named airbag is the 2016 Jeep Wrangler, and in this case they are passenger-side airbags. Fiat Chrysler says it isn't aware of any incidents involving these air bag inflaters in Jeeps, but amidst concerns that vehicles with failure-prone airbags are still being marketed to customers, North American-market 2016 Wranglers will cease to be equipped with them starting next week. As per FCA's statement, global production is expected to end by mid-September. In addition to Toledo, Ohio, the Wrangler is produced in Egypt. FCA isn't going to sell the cars with the deemed-faulty airbags without disclosing the fact to the customers: anyone buying a 2016 Wrangler will be notified that the vehicle will most likely be subject to a recall in the future, even if there is not currently a recall announced for them. NHTSA has specified a "Coordinated Remedy Program" recall schedule for the coming years, and the airbag inflaters will degrade over a time frame of several years, when subjected to a humid environment.

2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 4X4
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Ice skates are spectacular on frozen water, yet they are dreadful everyday footwear. I consider the Jeep Wrangler equally as specialized.
I recently spent a week with a 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 4X4. Introduced for the 2007 model year, the Wrangler Unlimited is a standard JK two-door with 20.6 inches added to its wheelbase and two additional doors bolted to its passenger compartment. While Jeep offers the Unlimited in seven different trim levels, the desirable Rubicon is the most capable when the pavement ends, as it boasts a slew of hardcore off-road tools including front and rear electronic locking differentials and a front sway bar that can be disengaged at the touch of a button for improved articulation. My I-Look-Like-A-Traffic-Cone test model started with a base price of $34,095 (plus $995 destination). Options including a five-speed automatic transmission, Uconnect, tow package and a premium soft top, drove the bottom line up to $38,630.

Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk revived and leaked
Fri, Mar 18 2016We'd love to tell you all about the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk you see here. Thing is, we don't really know all that much. That's because, according to our colleagues at Jalopnik, it hasn't quite been officially unveiled yet. But that's probably right around the corner, now that the cat is out of the bag. From the leaked images, we can tell that this Grand Cherokee Trailhawk is a lot like the Trailhawk that was produced as a special edition for the 2013 model year. Even the graphics look similar. Expect to see some aggressive tires to go along with all the best off-road goodies Jeep has to offer. Throw in some red tow hooks to match the contrasting interior stitching, mix together some underbody protection, and you've probably got yourself a Trailhawk. We'll have to wait until FCA decides to unleash the official goods to know for sure what we're looking at, but we doubt there's a supercharged V8 underhood. We do know that's coming, hopefully soon, but this isn't it. So, while we patiently wait for that Hellcat-powered Trackhawk to make an appearance outside the realm of spy shots, enjoy the Trailhawk you see here.
