1980 Jeep Cj5 From Southern California. on 2040-cars
Blandon, Pennsylvania, United States
All original 1980 Jeep CJ5 including the factory paint. It runs good with no smoke as one would expect with only 64k original, documented miles. I bought this jeep last year and had it shipped from southern California. As everybody knows, vehicles just don't rust out there. This is a very good rust free jeep in original, unmolested shape. Perfect for a show quality restoration project. It has a four cylinder engine with power steering and brakes. I never drove it so I can't speak for the Jeep in that respect. However, all plans were to totally restore it. So I started buying goodies for it. None are installed but all are included with the sale. Brand new, $1000, still in the box Old Man Emu YJ suspension kit. This includes OME shocks, shackles, 4 springs with the fronts being the wider 2.5", brake lines, transfer case spacers, mounting brackets, nuts, bolts and bushings. The YJ suspension gives the CJ a mush better ride. Rebuilt Hummer H1 power steering box. I removed the original steering box from the jeep as I had to hand it in for the core charge. This is an exact replacement but a far superior box for the Jeep with a larger internal piston and variable ratio steering which the Jeep CJ's didn't have from the factory. New parking brake foot assembly. Used hood. The original hood has a fixable dent in it but I already had a good used hood. Both go with the sale. Good running 1985 Mercedes Benz OM617 5 cylinder turbo charged diesel engine. This is a popular engine swap for the Jeep CJ with a lot of following. Front and back wide track axles. The CJ5 only came with the narrow track axles from the factory. These will give the Jeep a bit more stability. Last, I have a used tilt steering column.
A Jeep CJ5 was my high school vehicle and always wanted to have another one since. However; My wife and I have started a new business late last year and it's demonstrating very promising results. We're in need of both time and money as we are already expanding. Needless to say, we also need the space in the barn for the business. With a tear in my eye and a chance to improve our future as well as others, the Jeep has been targeted for dismissal. It wouldn't take much to put this Jeep back on the road. Thank you for looking and questions are welcomed. |

Chrysler investigating complaints of vehicles with faulty power modules
Sun, 24 Aug 2014Chrysler owners are hopping mad after experiencing a series of electrical gremlins in some of the company's vehicles. Issues range from mere annoyances - windows rolling down and radios turning off of their own accord - to serious safety issues, with headlights that randomly shut off at night and cars that stall and refuse to start.
The issues are being blamed on the total integrated power module, which can cost up to $1,000 for customers to replace. This, of course, has led to a hefty batch of complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, with 240 owners expressing their displeasure so far. Another site, CarComplaints.com, has registered over 300 complaints relating to the 2010 to 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango, alone, according to The New York Times.
Chrysler has acknowledged that it's investigating the complaints and is analyzing the faulty TIPMs, but that isn't quite enough for customers of the affected vehicles. The newspaper has snagged a few of the more harrowing tales with the electrically challenged Chrysler products, culled from the NHTSA complaints.
Jeepster name may be used for Fiat-based baby Jeep
Tue, 17 Dec 2013In 1948, Willys-Overland, the forbearers of Jeep, built a vehicle called the Jeepster. It was a funky little thing, designed as a mix of the more rugged Jeeps that came before with what was then a modern car, which arguably makes it the world's first crossover. The name was later revived from 1966 to 1972, which means for Jeep enthusiasts, it has some history.
Now, the modern Jeep brand may revive the Jeepster name for a new product, likely based on Fiat bones, that will slot in at the bottom of the brand's range underneath the soon-to-depart Compass and Patriot. The report comes from Australia's Drive, which cites a dealer source that has seen the vehicle.
That same dealer confirmed there is a link between the Jeepster and the rumored Fiat 500X, and that the former will be available in both front and all-wheel-drive variants. The source also claims both gas and diesel engines will be available, although as this is an Aussie site, we shouldn't take that to mean we'll get a diesel Jeepster in the US.
Chrysler to accelerate production of 2013 Ram and V6 engines
Fri, 16 Nov 2012Chrysler 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.
