United States
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.

Hackers stole Jeeps in Texas using FCA's internal dealer software
Fri, Aug 5 2016This article has been updated with details on how the thefts were carried out, and with comments from FCA. It seems the news regarding vehicle hacking continues to get worse, especially when it comes to products from Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. Last year, a Jeep Cherokee in St. Louis, Missouri, was wirelessly hacked from Pittsburgh. Nissan had to shut down its Leaf app because of vulnerabilities. Now, a pair of hackers in Houston, Texas, stole more than 30 Jeeps over a six-month period. The two were arrested by police last Friday while attempting to steal another vehicle. ABC 13 in Houston reports that police had been following Michael Arcee and Jesse Zelay for several months but were unable to catch them in the act until now. The two were using a laptop to connect to and start a vehicle. The thieves were able to access Fiat Chrysler's own DealerCONNECT software. After entering the vehicle identification number, the hackers were able to reprogram the cars' security systems to accept a generic key, according to The Houston Chronicle. Additionally, Automotive News reports that FCA subsequently updated the terms of use for its DealerCONNECT program. These thefts were not related to the UConnect remote hacks from last year.

It was this footage that first led the police to Arcee and Zelay. The police began to follow and record the pair. That investigation eventually led to Friday's arrest. Both are charged with unauthorized use of a motor vehicle. In addition, Arcee is charged with felon in possession of a weapon and possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance. According to ABC 13, Homeland Security is investigating more than 100 stolen FCA vehicles that they believe were hacked using this method. After their theft, the vehicles were brought across the border to Mexico. FCA is currently conducting an internal investigation into the matter. After this article was posted, the company reached out to Autoblog, stating "FCA US takes the safety and security of its customers seriously and incorporates security features in its vehicles that help to reduce the risk of unauthorized and unlawful access to vehicle systems and wireless communications. FCA US has been cooperating with Houston Police Department since they first started the investigation.
Next Jeep Wrangler spotted with 8-speed and EcoDiesel
Tue, Jun 21 2016Although it may not look like it, there are big changes coming to the next-generation Wrangler. The 2018 model will use aluminum for weight savings, spawn a pickup version, and offer new engines. This latest set of spy images brings confirmation of two new powertrain items. The spy photos below show a Wrangler mule with the current interior and an eight-speed automatic shifter fitted in place of the old five-speed unit. (There's a comparison photo in the gallery.) The shifter design matches that of the refreshed Dodge Charger and Challenger; the final Jeep version is likely to differ, but this clearly indicates what kind of transmission is underneath. Chrysler builds eight-speed automatics from a ZF design and also uses some transmissions built by ZF. View 4 Photos While it's not visible in the photos, the unmistakable sound of a diesel was heard coming from this Jeep. The EcoDiesel V6 is expected to be available alongside a new turbocharged four-cylinder engine that is rumored to have the code name "Hurricane." The turbo four may completely replace the current gas V6 or be offered in addition. There's a good chance the eight-speed will also be paired with the Hurricane engine, since improved fuel economy is a goal for the new model across the board. We don't yet know whether a manual transmission will be offered again, but it's a pretty good bet for one of the gas engines since many diehard off-roaders prefer the ultimate control.
