1979 Jeep Cj7 - 258 - Mc2100 on 2040-cars
Indialantic, Florida, United States
|
I've had this Jeep since November, only now selling it because I no longer have need for a car.
The Jeep has the AMC 258 with a T-150 3-speed transmission. The Jeep runs great, has no known issues, and everything works. No rust. These are simple cars, so not much to say. Great working radio with Bose speaker, interior in decent shape, shoulder strap seatbelts, transmission shifts great, back seat, canvas windows/doors, lift kit, and tow package. I have some service manuals that will go with it as well. In the last six months, it has gotten: - New rims & tires (shown), less than a few thousand miles on them - New steering box - New carb (MC2100, professionally rebuilt and cleaned) - Rebuilt transmission - New Warn locking hubs - New fuel pump, fuel lines, and fuel filter - Oil change (duh) - New paint (October) - Tub painted with bed liner - Corrosion prevention paint on frame interior, exterior, diffs, transmission, etc. Basically anything that can rust was treated. - New drums & shoes for rear brakes (front are disc) In addition, I have some spares that I can include with the Jeep, including a spare oil pan, oil pan gasket, old carb, old fuel pump, and the oil/oil filters I used in the last oil change. |

What's really going on with the 2014 Jeep Cherokee's transmission issues?
Fri, 27 Sep 2013On September 23, Automotive News reported that Chrysler had idled the second shift workers it hired just five weeks prior at its Toledo Assembly Complex to build the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. At the time, Chrysler said it had "built the critical number of vehicles we need to stock dealerships once containment is released" and did not want "to put additional strain on our logistics partners ... upon release." That reasoning was not only unusual, it didn't seem to make sense.
It appears the center of the nine-speed issue is software, not hardware.
That same day, the Detroit News ran a piece claiming workers at the Toledo factory said the halt was due to issues with the Cherokee's transmission. It put the number of already-built Cherokees needing fixes at 1,000 and said that some of the workers not laid off had been instructed "to take the Jeep on long test-drives." That made more sense. Three days later, on September 26, Automotive News reported that the 500 workers laid off had been reinstated, with engineers "speeding repairs on the SUV's powertrain software." The AN piece didn't put a number on how many units are being fixed, but it did say that 12,000 have been built and are awaiting delivery to dealers. The best it could say about when dealers will get them, however, is that "progress on a fix is being made. It's unclear when shipments to dealers will start."
Consumer Reports digs Mazda3, disses Jeep Cherokee
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has just rendered its verdict on two of the more important cars to launch this year - the Mazda3 and the Jeep Cherokee. Considering the value a "Recommended" rating carries with the public and the viciously competitive markets these two cars compete in, Consumer Reports' view could have some impact on their initial success.
For Mazda, that's a good thing. CR spoke quite highly of the Zoom-Zoom brand's compact sedan and hatch, testing both models, and citing the excellent fuel economy and snickety-snack manual shifter as high points. Downsides to the 3 included a ride that is agile but "nervous," a bit too much noise and a cramped back seat. Still, the 3 was good enough to earn its place in the ranks of the "Recommended."
The Jeep didn't fare quite so well, with CR calling the polarizing CUV "half-baked." Although both engines were tested, the magazine called the 2.4-liter four-pot underpowered and its nine-speed automatic unrefined and unresponsive. That's particularly damning, considering the 9AT's role in future Chrysler products, including the extremely important 200. Overall, the Cherokee missed out on the coveted "Recommended" rating.
