This has been an Awesome Jeep for me and is the 4th CJ that I have owned. I am moving from Dallas to Center City Philadelphia and it is just not practical. It is a catchy Burnt Orante, great for any Longhorns Fan!! It is a rebuilt 4.2L with a Mopar Fuel Injection Conversion Kit installed. The kit from Mopar is based on the 1994 Wrangler and is multi-port (not TBI). It runs great and looks great. Tons of fun on nice days. Sits on 35" tires and a 4.5" lift kit (I think- it was this way when I got it). I have never offroaded, but if it is anything like the others I had, you will have trouble getting it stuck. With it will come a bikini top, wind jammer, a set of stock and a set of oversized fender flares (not installed), original speedometer head and a new dash pad that I never installed (black). Has a nice Tuffy consul with radio inside (I don't have the key to lock it), waterproof boxes for the speakers (was going to put new marine speakers in it but never got to it - speakers work ok), and the inside is coated with bed liner. Water pump and radiator were just replaced. I think it was re-geared, but not sure what is in it. It moves pretty good with those 35's and will break the tires loose if you get on it. I got it on ebay almost 2 years ago from Erie PA and other than some small upgrades and cosmetic updates, it is the same Jeep it was them with about 1000 more miles on it. The body is solid and it has no rust. I think it had a minor restoration before I got it. I have done my best to describe it, but if you have questions about it or want to come see/drive it, let me know. If you would like additional pictures of anything specific, let me know. The Jeep is being sold as is. It is well worth more than the starting bid and while I hate to give it up, I am moving in less than a month. Buyer is responsible to pick it up. If you want to set up shipping I we can discuss availability for me to meet your shipper. If I have left anything out or you have questions, please let me know. I am selling with no reserve because I am confident that the bids will take it to the price I am looking for. Also for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early.

NHTSA investigating why Jeep recall fix is taking so long
Mon, 07 Jul 2014Jeep's saga with the National Traffic Safety Administration and the voluntary campaign to repair 1.56 million vehicles for allegedly unsafe trailer hitches, is getting yet another chapter. The controversy appeared to finally be over in January when the automaker found a supplier for the replacement parts. Nothing is ever that easy, though, and the government regulator is now requesting documents from the company to clarify why the repairs are taking so long to begin.
Jeep parent company Chrysler has until July 16 to submit documents and answers to NHTSA explaining the situation. The regulator claims that despite its compromise to inspect and repair the models with improper hitches in June 2013, Chrysler didn't find a part supplier until December and didn't order the replacements until January. The government agency believes that the first components weren't manufactured until May of this year and vehicles may not actually be repaired until as late as August. According to the report, if the Chrysler doesn't supply what NHTSA is asking for, the agency could "take additional appropriate action as warranted."
Throughout this entire process, Chrysler has asserted that the vehicles met the applicable crash test standards of the time, and it has kept NHTSA abreast of the repair activity. In a recently released statement it said that the regulator analyzed eight rear impact reconstruction tests and found the replacement hitch to be safe. To keep up with the high demand for replacements, Chrysler is working with multiple suppliers, and they are running three shifts, six days a week to get the parts ready as soon as possible.
Jeep Cherokee Trail Carver is a more rugged Trailhawk
Wed, 06 Nov 2013We briefly mentioned the Jeep Cherokee Trail Carver that was heading to SEMA last week when discussing the Mopar lineup set to be shown in Las Vegas. At the time, though, we weren't able to dive too deeply into details. But with SEMA in full swing, we were able to sneak over and grab some snaps of one of the first modified Cherokees we've seen. The Cherokee is, after all, kind of an unknown quantity in the modification department, being so new and featuring such a polarizing design. We were quite interested to see what Mopar could come up with.
Starting with the Trailhawk 4x4 and its 3.2-liter V6, the engine is fitted with a Mopar cold-air intake and a new exhaust, although it's not clear what sort of power boost has resulted. We'll admit, we were hoping Jeep and Mopar would get a bit more aggressive with the Cherokee's suspension (has anyone thrown a few-inch lift on the new Jeep yet?), but there's no mention of upgrades beyond the knobby, off-road tires. Those should do some good when the going gets rough, while rock rails are there to protect the Auburn Pearl paint on the body.
Speaking of that paint, it's complemented by an interesting graphics package in contrasting black and Crush Orange. The cabin sports Katzkin Amaretto leather seats, along with tech-friendly items like a wireless charging system for cellphones and wireless internet.
Chrysler investing $20M in Toledo plant to support 9-speed auto production
Sun, 28 Apr 2013In 2011, Chrysler announced a $72-million investment in its Toledo Machining Plant to modernize production of the eight- and nine-speed torque-converters for automatic transmissions made there. That upgrade work won't be finished until Q3 of this year, but Chrysler has already announced a further $19.6-million investment to increase production capacity for the nine-speeders.
The extra units will be necessary because the nine-speed transmission they'll be mated to is going into three popular models: it will debut on the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, then go into the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Dart. The company predicted that this year alone it would sell 200,000 units equipped with the nine-speed tranny, and it is spending some $374 million in addition to the investment in Toledo to upgrade production capacity for it.
The work attached to this new investment won't begin until Q3 of 2014, and it will be finished by the end of that year. There's a press release below with all the details.
