1978 Jeep CJ5 4x4 Project. Jeep purchases in July of 2010. It was running and driven on the street. I decided to clean it up and make some "upgrades. Jeep is equipped with a 360 cubic inch V8 engine. Body is a fiberglass replacement tub along with the front fenders and fender wells. The hood and front grill are original steel. The original ignition was removed and a single wire Mallory HEI system with 8mm wires was installed along with new spark plugs. The original Mopar alternator and regulator was replaced with a one wire Delco alternator. The original wire harness was replaced with a Kwik Wire system which includes a new fuse panel and relays. Engine has headers and a customer made 3" dual pipes that exit just after the rear axle. Four brand new Ranchero 9000 series shocks are installed. New mirror kits, hood hinges and hood latches and new dash. Tires are 31 x 10.5 x 15 on white wagon wheels. Tires are like brand new. Jeep has a custom made steel angle iron rear bumper with tow ball. Seats are from a new style Jeep that we were going to modify to fit in the CJ. Original old style Jeep steering wheel. Included is a brand new master cylinder and booster to give you power brakes. A complete set of new stainless brake lines from Classic Tube. A brand new set of Autometer white faced retro gauges. A steel gas tank. A box of spare parts. The two steel lines in the spare parts kit we were using for the fuel lines. This is a project piece so the Jeep currently is not in running condition. The wiring to the engine compartment along with the head and tail lights is complete. The following needs to be done: gas tank with fuel lines, interior wiring, brake system including lines and booster with master cylinder, seats, roof and doors. We worked on this on and off for a year. We just don't have the time to finish it. Send me a TEXT message if you are instated in it. 732-754-3980. You will be responsible to come and tow it away.

Jeep reveals annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari concepts
Wed, 20 Mar 2013Jeep has unveiled its annual spate of concepts before the Easter Jeep Safari. Those start with the Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Concept (below left), complete with the company's EcoDiesel V6 engine. Designers threw in a set of 35-inch Mickey Thompson tires wrapped around 17-inch Rubicon wheels, and a set of custom fender flares help keep all that rubber under wraps.
Meanwhile, the Wrangler Mopar Recon (below right) packs a 6.4-liter Hemi V8 good for 470 horsepower. All that grunt gets to the ground via a five-speed automatic transmission and a set of a Dana 60 axles frond and rear with 4.10 gears. The Recon also makes use of a 4.5-inch prototype long-arm kit and a set of prototype eight-lug bead lock wheels.
The Wrangler Stitch (below left) builds on the momentum of the Wrangler Pork Chop Concept. Engineers once again set out to strike as much weight as possible from the vehicle, and actually managed to trim the curb weight down to 3,000 pounds. That effort has given the machine the same power to weight ratio as the Grand Cherokee SRT8. Plenty of carbon fiber, door deletes and a chrome moly roll cage all help trim those pounds, and a set of DanyTrac Pro Rock 44 axles with 4.88 gears and ARB lockers front and rear let this machine scramble over whatever is in its path.
2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Jeep's Super 'Ute Is Fun Thrown In The Face Of Conventional Wisdom
Let's talk asses for a moment. What do they have to do with the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT, you ask?
Well, we're here to tell you that this SRT can haul some. Lots of them, as a matter of fact: Jeep has increased the towing capacity of its most powerful SUV to 7,200 pounds. Assuming the average donkey weighs about 400 pounds, the Grand Cherokee SRT can haul ass to the tune of 18 burros, give or take a covered trailer or so, which is significantly more than it could in previous years. In 2013, the machine could manage 5,000 pounds, while the first generation was rated at just 3,500. The increase is mostly attributable to a new eight-speed automatic transmission and beefier rear axle, and it's a welcome update for those who'd like to use their SUV as, well, an SUV with an emphasis on utility.
Jeep shows off Moab Easter Safari concepts crawling the red rocks
Thu, 28 Mar 2013While most brands are busy showing off in New York, Jeep headed out to Moab for the Easter Jeep Safari with the company's fleet of 2013 concepts. This year saw the Grand Cherokee Trailhawk II, Wrangler Mopar Recon, Wrangler Stitch, Wrangler Sand Trooper II, Wrangler Flattop and Wrangler Slim Concepts tackle the rocks and sand, and Jeep was kind enough to bring along a camera crew to film the machines rolling over a few obstacles. The result is the video below, though don't expect to see too much hardcore off road action.
Instead, the quick clip features more than a few interviews with Jeep executives, including Jeep Head of Product Design Mark Allen, explaining what makes the Easter Jeep Safari so important. You can check out the quick clip below for yourself, and be sure to thumb through our galleries of the concepts as well.
