Extra nice 1983 Jeep CJ7 that has lived its entire life out here in Arizon, even has its original paint except for 2 spots (tailgate and engine compartment firewall, one need sprucing up and the other rubbed bare) .    
I have run into issues with my health and need to part with my wonderful CJ7. 
Looking at the Carfax information provided by Ebay, it shows a mileage/odometer issue many years ago which was the miles exceeding the odometer limit.  Also, this past year emissions failed and I took the old Carter carb off and installed a clean running Motorcraft 2150..

The List:

-258 six cylinder taken out and completely cleaned and painted with hi temp paint

- New oil pump

-New fuel pump

-Aluminum rocker arm cover

-Autometer tachometer (high quality with large lower range)

-AM-FM with cassette and 2 Pioneer speakers

-Motorcraft 2150 carb

-Automatic trans TF999 taken out, cleaned, painted

-Dana 300 transfer case taken out , cleaned, painted

-Twin Stick shifting setup for transfer case

-Dana 30 front axle with all new axle shaft seals, bearings, ball joints, universal joints, front calipers, brakes

-Rear Dana 44 with 1 piece axle shafts out of a 1986 CJ7 that replaces the old AMC 20, new brakes, drums cleaned and painted

-New rear Tattons  double cardan rear drive shaft

-All new springs… Old Man Emu 2” lift yj springs with new shackle mounts and new HD shackles by Jim Crabtree (none of that extended shackle junk)

-4 brand new Old Man Emu shock absorbers

-All new exhaust

-All new body mounts to replace the old CJ ones that were getting flat

-20 gallon gas tank, cleaned, painted, new fuel lines, sender, etc..\

-Front and rear custom bumpers

-HD hummer steering gear (same thing as the old CJ one but with a bigger piston)

-New tie rod ends along with a Big Daddy tie rod that has been flipped to the top side of the knuckles for better clearance

-HD steering gear mount (not the flimsy stock CJ one)

-Tilt automatic steering

-Brass Mile Marker lock out hubs

-5 brand new Goodyear Wrangler M/T with Kevlar tires 32x 11.50 on new Mickey Thompson black aluminum rims and new lug nuts

-Brand new Sears Diehard Platinum battery (these are the best out there as they are made by Odessy)

-DUI electronic ignition with DUI live wires

-New motor mounts

-New sway bar bushings

-Sway bar disconnects

-Entire interior floor area and some side areas have been scuffed and a tinted epoxy liner put on.  Makes it quieter and much more durable.  Copper colored.

-YJ family roll bare from a 1994 wrangler with an OR Fab front sport cage is installed.  This give the rear more coverage by the brand new Bestop Safari top that extends further over the back

-Original nutmeg front seats in great shape with a black seat cover over them, rear seat is also nutmeg with no seat cover

-Aluminum rack that spans the rear wheel wells giving a top and lower storage function to the back area

-OEM spare tire carrier (not installed at the moment)

-1/2 rubber pad that is cut and fits in the back to prevent damage when putting things in

-Most of the original carpeting, formed to fit rubber mats in the front

-2 front seat tilt forward AND slide forward

-All new Spicer Ujoints on the entire Jeep

-All new extended brakes lines both front and back

 

EXTRAS:

A 1986 258 block and head with the 1/2 head bolt holes in the block.  Perfect for putting a 4.0 head on that uses the 1/2 bolts.   Block is in great shape as is the head…I planned on having it rebuilt and adding a performance cam, etc. to it….

Extra front drive shaft

2 extra starters

Original CJ7 roll bar

Boxes and boxes of misc. extra parts

 

She runs straight down the road and is a delight to look at.  Motor runs great, NO leaks at all from the entire drive train.  There is a tap-tap sound, might be wrist pin but it has been that way  for 30,000 miles. Right now it has 156,000 miles on it.  IF you do not want the OrFab roll bar setup and safari top, I do have the original roll bar and will drop the overall price by $550 if you want that original one installed instead and I keep the OrFab one for a friend of mine.

These original, rust free CJ7's are getting harder and harder to find due to accidents, rust, parting out, etc..  Get a great one while you can!

The automaker will also use the venue to show off a new line of Jeep Performance Parts offered by the all-new Mopar Off-Road Division. In addition to the images, Chrysler also issued a brief press release - posted below - breaking down some of the "industry-first features" that Mopar has offered in recent years.

Watch a Cayenne Turbo S, Range Rover SVR, and Cherokee SRT drag race

Thu, Mar 17 2016

We live in a weird world where high-performance SUVs could win a 60-mile-per-hour sprint against sports cars from just a few years ago. Here, Top Gear sets up a three-way drag race against the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S, Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR, and Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT, and the results show just how quickly these high-riding models can cross the quarter mile. The Cherokee SRT is the patriotic choice among the three, but it's down on power in this fight. Meanwhile, the Range Rover's menacing growl sounds the best, and the Cayenne Turbo S has the most horsepower. You'll have to watch the video to see which SUV will win this battle. Related Video:

Chrysler investigating complaints of vehicles with faulty power modules

Sun, 24 Aug 2014

Chrysler 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.
