The Jeep has a new heater core and radiator. This is a CLEAN swap, nothing jerry rigged here. It was built by Keith Valone of Corvette Connections in Florida. When I registered the vehicle, I had them list a mileage discrepancy due to the fact that the Jeep itself has only 88000 miles on the body, but the drivetrain/motor has only 34000. Otherwise it is a clear title. 

After dealing with Craigslist's finest for a couple of weeks, I've decided to put this up here. This Jeep has roughly $16000 put into the conversions and customizations. I have receipt for all of this, plus for maintenance. I am selling due to some mechanical issues which I will detail. The engine is running rough, and the port from the LT1 wont accept my diagnostic tool. I'm getting good fuel pressure so I think it's a spark issue, but I'm not sure. The motor ran great since I purchased it, but is running rough right now. The motor has some leaks from a couple of gaskets, nothing bad, and the rear axle needs a new gasket on the gear housing.

Pardon some of the smudges, but that is all they are. 

As far as the Autocheck score, its due to the mileage discrepancy which I listed above.

For anyone who has wanted to do one of these conversions, all of the hard work has been done for you and then some. Not to mention it was done well. It would not take much to get this running well and have one very unique and fun Cherokee. 

I have 100% feedback so bid with confidence and thanks for looking, and please make sure to ask any questions before bidding!

Chrysler to accelerate production of 2013 Ram and V6 engines

Fri, 16 Nov 2012

Chrysler is adding a third shift at its Warren Truck plant to meet demand for the new 2013 Ram pickup. And with tight supplies of its Pentastar V6, the company is also boosting output at its Mack Engine plant.
The expansions will add 1,250 jobs and are part of a $238 million investment by Chrysler in the Detroit area. Warren's third shift will begin work sometime in the spring, a Chrysler rep told Automotive News. Mack's increased Pentastar production a could include both 3.6 and 3.2-liter engines.
The company says it also plans to invest $40 million in its Trenton Engine plant to allow for production of a 3.2-liter V6 as well as the Tigershark inline-four for the upcoming Jeep Liberty replacement.

Jeep recalls 92k Grand Cherokee SUVs over electrical issue

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Chrysler is recalling 91,559 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs from the 2014 model year due to some serious electrical issues. All of the affected models were built between January 8 and August 20, 2013.
The NHTSA report states that, "Due to a disruption of computer communications and loose alternator ground wires, the affected vehicles may experience random illumination of multiple instrument cluster warning lights, loss of cluster illumination and loss of anti-lock brake system (ABS) and electronic stability control (ESC) function." The loss of ABS or ESC would greatly reduce a driver's ability to control the vehicle if things get squirrely, and since these failures would not be illuminated on the dashboard display, drivers would not be warned of the issue, increasing the risk of a crash.
The recall is expected to kick off sometime this month. Chrysler will notify affected Jeep owners and dealerships "will update the ABS and instrument cluster module software and tighten the alternator ground wire," according to NHTSA.
