I am looking to sell my 2010 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara. I am the owner of a used car dealership here in Michigan and I have been daily driving this Wrangler for about a year now. A little bit of back story; I bought this Jeep at auction with an engine fire last year (Carfax reports there was fire damage on 01/27/2013, which is why the truck has a rebuilt title) with the intention of doing the motor swap in the spring of 2014. The truck was COMPLETELY stock when I purchased it last year. There are 4 pictures of the truck from when I bought it that shows how it looked when I bought it and the fire damage. Originally I had the gas tank replaced, along with the engine wiring harness, and some top end parts of the motor that were damaged in the fire and I drove it for about 6 months with the original 3.8L V6. Also as soon as we had it running, instead of painting the stock hood, I ordered a 10th Anniversary hood from my local Chrysler dealership and had it painted. At the time of purchase the truck had approximately 50,000 miles on it.
After the truck was running and driving and I had the replacement hood on, I did following modifications (not necessarily in this order): - AEV Premium Front Bumper - AEV JK Rear Bumper - AEV JK Tire Carrier - 2.5" TeraFlex Lift (shocks, springs, and brake relocation, not just a budget boost) - IPF 901XSD Driving Lights (on from bumper) - IPF 968 Series Driving Lights (with Rugged Ridge windshield brackets) - IPF 8161 Backup Light - (5) 18" Fuel Octane Wheels - 35x12.5R18 Federal Mud Tires (less than 50% tread remaining, the spare is brand new) - Replaced the Steering Wheel and Airbag for the 2011+ Style Wheel - License Plate Relocation Bracket (to the middle of the 5th wheel) - OEM Black Grill with Black "Jeep" Badge - Rugged Ridge Gas Cap Cover - Rugged Ridge Grab Handles - Removed the Chrome Mirror Caps and Tail Light Guards Following these modifications, in April of this year, I ordered the 6.1L Hemi Kit from AEV. By May of this year it was completed and ready to go! If you are not familiar with it, the AEV Kit includes but is not limited to, custom motor mounts, custom transmission mounts, a custom radiator, a full custom Flowmaster exhaust system, a new custom PCM and a complete wiring harness that comes from the same supplier that Chrysler uses. With this kit the truck runs and drives like it would if Chrysler would have put a Hemi in the Wrangler. All of the warning lights work as they should including the tire pressure light and none are illuminated at this time. I purchased a 6.1L Hemi that came out of a 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 with 48k miles on it. The 545RFE transmission that was required for the swap came out of a 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee also but with a 5.7L with 38k miles on it and I had it completely rebuilt but a local well known transmission shop with a bigger torque convertor and better internal parts than stock. A lot of the other parts that were required for the kit were also ordered from my local Chrysler dealership. After the swap was completed everything was programmed with AEV's Procal module including the correct tire size. Since then I have put roughly 7,000 miles on the truck and I have loved every minute of it! Everywhere I go it turns heads and I'm always getting compliments on it. I am not sure about the previous owner but in the time I have had it, it has only served as my daily driver and I have NEVER taken it off-road or to the sand dunes before or after the swap. The only reason I am even selling it at this time is because my interest has shifted to another ongoing project and the money from this truck will help me complete that project. I am currently still daily driving it so the mileage will go up from the time of this listing. I regret that I didn't get to finish modding the truck the way I wanted to because the exterior and the powertrain are AMAZING but the interior I hadn't quite gotten around to completing. The things I was planning on doing before I decided it was time to sell it are as follows. I purchased the winch mount from AEV for the front bumper but never got around to actually purchasing a winch and installing it. Also I wanted to replace the factory radio with a factory Navigation system. Last but not least I was going to order some custom Cardinal Red seats from Katzkin. Other than the things I listed everything I wanted to do to the truck I have already done. The reserve price barely covers the parts and labor that went into this build. I do have the truck advertised locally and I reserve the right to end this auction early if I do sell it locally before this auction ends. As I stated in the beginning the truck was COMPLETELY stock when I purchased it and I have pictures and receipts for everything along the way. Feel free to shoot me a message on eBay if you'd like any additional information or you can call/text me at (586) 850-9224 and I will do my best to answer any and all questions you may have. |

2023 New York Auto Show Mega Photo Gallery: See all the new cars from the show
Thu, Apr 6 2023The 2023 New York Auto Show was a rather lively show full of North American vehicle debuts and a lot of new metal we’ve never seen before. As always, we were on the ground covering it from every angle for you, including photographing all the reveals on the show floor. There were a ton of new EVs shown and even a stunning concept with the Genesis GV80 Coupe Concept. YouÂ’ll be able to see them all, from the production Ram REV to the little (but now much bigger) Kona, in the numerous galleries below.  2024 Kia EV9 2024 Kia EV9 View 7 Photos 2024 Kia EV9 GT-Line 2024 Kia EV9 GT-Line View 5 Photos 2025 Ram REV 2025 Ram 1500 REV View 6 Photos Genesis GV80 Coupe Concept Genesis GV80 Coupe Concept View 9 Photos 2024 Hyundai Kona Electric, N Line and Limited 2024 Hyundai Kona Electric View 21 Photos 2024 Jeep Wrangler 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe View 22 Photos 2024 Subaru Crosstrek Wilderness 2024 Subaru Crosstrek Wilderness View 14 Photos 2024 VW Atlas Peak Edition 2024 VW Atlas Peak Edition View 7 Photos Hyundai Ioniq 5 Disney100 Platinum Concept Hyundai Ioniq 5 Disney100 Platinum Concept View 9 Photos  Related video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Hands on with the concepts of the Moab Easter Jeep Safari
Fri, Mar 20 2015Jeep has a way of tugging at the heartstrings of its enthusiastic owner base when the annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari rolls around. The 2015 version sees all boxes ticked in the off-road event's 49th year: multiple diesel engines on display, a pickup-truck-like model and more than a few nods to the brand's long and storied history book. We were able to get a first-hand look at the seven concepts being shown in Utah's Red Desert in the much cooler, cleaner confines of the FCA Technical Center's Design Dome. Jeep Chief Concept We aren't sure if it's that throwback chrome grille or the eye-catching Ocean Blue paint, but even more than the Red Rock Responder, the Chief drew our eye as soon as we walked into the Design Dome. It's a surprisingly tall vehicle, but it's also very wide. We'd also wager it's longer than your typical four-door Wrangler. Jeep may have used a Wrangler as a base for the Chief, but any similarities to the donor vehicle are extremely difficult to spot. The fenders and doors are probably the biggest giveaways, but you're going to need to squint (and have the benefit of a Wrangler to compare with, like we did) to pick out Wrangler bits. As is the recurring theme throughout all seven concepts, the Jeep design team's attention to detail is borderline fanatical. From the "Surf Rated" badge on the fenders, to the tweaked door handles to the bumper stickers in the cargo area and the Tiki-statue-shaped shifter, the little details are truly the stars of the Chief Concept. The rosewood trim in the rear cargo area is stunning and adds to the Beach-Boy-friendly stylings of the Chief. The throwback grille, round headlights and tall, skinny taillights, meanwhile, add a lot of personality to the exterior. The high beltline and lower roof gives the Chief a chop-topped look, but it's arguably the least successful element to the blue concept's otherwise impressive design. All of the vehicles Jeep put together for Moab are 100-percent functional. That's not surprising with some of the vehicles you'll see below, but it somehow is remarkably impressive given the degree of the changes Jeep made in putting together the Chief. Jeep Wrangler Red Rock Responder The Wrangler-based Red Rock Responder is arguably one of the most capable of these real-world vehicles, both in terms of the way it looks and its actual hardware. We mentioned the special rescue equipment fitted to the bright-red, truck-like Jeep – a compressor and air gun, sockets, tow straps, etc.
