Up for auction is my 1990 Jeep Wrangler YJ. Less than 5Kmiles on complete power and drive train swap/re-build. Completely rebuilt 5.0L SBC Roller Motor from '90 Camaro and its resting on Novak weld-in motor mounts. Its cam is 7 BDC. It has a GM HEI ignition system and an Offenhauser 4bbl manifold with Holley Truck Avenger 479 cfm carb, an AFCO aluminum radiator, a 16 inch puller fan on a 185 degree auto-switch. 3/4-ton 700R4 with Novak main shaft and adapter for T-case. 700R4 has new Torque Converter with Lock-up at 55 mph. NP231J w/ Novak shifter, JB Gear SYE and Tera-Low splitter. D44R Front Axle w/ 3.73, Detroit Locker, High Steer, GM/Spicer 1-ton TRE's and Drag Link. Axle housing from '77 F-150 4x4 w/ passenger side shortened. 3/4-ton axle shafts cut and re-splined by the Ranger Station. GM/Spicer/Moog stubs and u-joints, GM disc brakes and shields, Ford outers and hubs. Rear Axle is 8.8 w/ 3.73's and factory limited slip-diff from '98 Ford Explorer. It is mounted using Mountain Off Road axle and E-brake kit. To eliminate a common weak spot, the axle tubes were TIG welded to the diff housing using high nickel steel. Spider-Trax adapt the 5x5.5 wheels to the 8.8's stock 5x4.5 bolt pattern. 4 wheel disc brakes give it great stopping behavior. Lokar 16 inch trans floor shifter. 5 5x5.5 bolt pattern 15x8 wheels blasted and powder-coated with 35x12.50-15LT BFG Mud T/A's. SOA with one extra leaf added to front leaf pack to help level the Jeep and support the new motor. Front shock towers from F-350 with GM leaf spring plates flipped to match SOA and High Steer. Shocks are from Off Road Unlimited and are comparable to RS 9000's. Along with the SOA there is a 2 inch body lift and 1.5 inch cross member drop. The Best-Top and carpet kit are used but in very good condition as are the original seats. All of the original gauges work except the tach. The windshield and windshield frame are brand new. The front bumper is a powder-coated 4 inch box tube 1/16 wall that is frame rail wide with 1 inch thick clevis mounts welded front and rear and 45 degree brush guard. The rear bumper is also 1/16 wall 4 inch box tube swing away with a 1-ton High-Lift bumper jack and full sized spare mounted. This Jeep is a great Jeep and I have been working on it for ten years while I was in the service, dragging it from one duty station to another. Most of the work was done by me, family and friends. It has been a labor of love and no corners were cut. Unfortunately I'm no longer in the service, I have young children, a wife and a life with less time in it to just drop everything and go wheelin'. I hope it finds its way into the hands of some one who likes to wrench and trail ride because that's really what owning a Jeep is all about. Thank you for checking out my auction.

Jeep and Ram could be spun off from FCA, says Marchionne
Thu, Apr 27 2017Jeep is surely the biggest single feather left in the cap of the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles portfolio. Under Sergio Marchionne's leadership, Jeep went from fewer than 500,000 annual sales in 2008 to 1.4 million in 2016, and is on track for 2 million by 2018. Add in the brand's legacy, status as one of the most recognizable nameplates in the world, and rabid fan base, and Jeep has extraordinary monetary value to its parent company. Investors and analysts have certainly noticed Jeep's inherent value. According to The Detroit Free Press, Morgan Stanley's Adam Jonas asked FCA chief Sergio Marchionne if he would ever consider spinning Jeep and Ram, FCA's dedicated truck brand, into a separate corporate entity, and he responded with a simple "Yes." Jonas estimated Jeep's worth in January of this year at $22 billion. Ram was valued at $11.2 billion. Marchionne has a history of spinning off brands while keeping them part of FCA's corporate umbrella. The most noteworthy example of this value maximization was with Ferrari, which now trades on the New York Stock Exchange and rakes in $3.4 billion in annual revenue and close to $435 million in net income, reports the Free Press. Marchionne still serves as chairman and CEO of Ferrari, and Fiat heir John Elkann owns 22 percent of the Italian marque's shares. Even if the offloading of Jeep and Ram into a separate entity would amount to little more than a profit-driven ownership change on paper, it would be huge news to the brands' loyal fanbases. In any case, such a move would likely take years to actually happen and probably wouldn't mean much at all to the products that Jeep and Ram produce. In other words, Jeep fans can keep the pitchforks in the shed ... for now. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
NHTSA closes investigation on 4.7M FCA power modules, no recall
Thu, Jul 30 2015FCA US hasn't had the best time with recalls as of late. Not only did the company recently agree to greater safety oversight and paid $105 million to the government, that came just days after hacking fears prompted a 1.4-million model recall campaign. However, a recent decision to close an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration means that the automaker doesn't have to worry about another major recall possibly affecting 4.7 million vehicles, according to the agency's report (as a PDF). Last September, the Center for Auto Safety petitioned NHTSA to investigate an alleged problem with the totally integrated power module (TIPM) on these FCA US models. The group claimed that a fault with the component could cause a variety of maladies, including stalls, not starting, catching fire, unintended acceleration, and airbag non-deployment. At the time, it also submitted 70 cases where this had reportedly happened. According to NHTSA, "no valid evidence was presented in support of claims related to airbag non-deployment, unintended acceleration, or fire resulting from TIPM faults and these claims were found to be wholly without merit based on review of the field data and design of the relevant systems and components." The agency did find signs of an issue with the fuel pump relay in some Jeep Grand Cherokees and Dodge Durangos, but FCA US issued recalls for the problem in September 2014 and February 2015. Without anything else to go on, the Feds don't think it's worth investigating this topic any more.
Jay Leno rides high in Fab Fours Legend
Mon, Mar 23 2015Jeep showcased some pretty awesome concepts at its Easter Safari in Moab a few days ago, but few if any of them were quite as extreme as what's rolled in to Jay Leno's Garage for this latest video installment. It's called the Legend, and it was made by aftermarket bumper manufacturer Fab Fours to demonstrate its capabilities. It's obviously based on the Jeep Wrangler, but it's riding high on 50-inch tires with a jacked-up monster truck suspension, giant fenders, a chopped-down red-tinted greenhouse and something its creators call a "grumper" that integrates the bumper into the grille. Or vice versa. Though most of the oily bits have carried over from the production model, it's hardly what you'd call "practical," but it's sure to turn a lot of heads... even one as massive as Jay's.
