1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4.7l ***lifted*** Must See! on 2040-cars
Cottage Grove, Minnesota, United States
Welcome and thank you for checking out this awesome Jeep. Sadly, I am selling this Jeep... I must do this because my family is growing and we are in the need for something more practical. I truly hate to see it go since I built it myself, but it must be done.
Long story short, I used to work at Iron Rock Offroad in Shakopee, MN a couple years back and while I worked there I built this Jeep. The jeep is a 1999 Grand Cherokee Laredo with the 4.7l v8, with 147000 miles. It has a 6.5" IRO long arm premium lift kit. I switched out the transfer case for a 242HD select-trec, giving the driver the ability to put it in 2wd and all time 4wd. I also replace the fabric seats with heated leather seats, which is great in the cold weather. The gas tank has also been lifted by removing the spare tire well, this giving the Jeep more clearance in the rear. Both front and rear axles have been built to beat anything. I guarantee they will never bend. I made custom trusses for both and enforced the front axle internally. Go to http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f197/lifted-zjs-wjs-picture-thread-536929/index154.html To see photos of the build. (NOTE: The build was just over two years ago and everything in the photos were brand new at that time).
It does have the ABS and brake light on. After having it checked I found that it needs a new ABS module. I never had it fixed Due to the fact that it doesn't affect the Jeep’s performance.

Jeep leads list of 25 most patriotic brands
Thu, 04 Jul 2013It's not unusual to feel extra patriotic this time of year, what with the Fourth of July being today and all. As if to celebrate, New York-based research firm Brand Keys conducted a study among 4,500 consumers about what brands they find to be the most patriotic. According to the Detroit Free Press, Jeep took top honors in this study, besting other American stalwart brands including Coca-Cola, Levi's and Hershey's.
Interestingly, the only other automotive brand to make the list was Ford, in the 16th spot (motorcycle fans take note - Harley-Davidson claimed the No. 13 slot). This means consumers found Jeep to be more patriotic than any of the brands in the General Motors portfolio, including Chevrolet, which has long used American themes in its advertising over the decades.
According to Brand Keys, Jeep came in "with a score of 98 out of 100 on a scale representing consumers' emotional engagement expectations," the Detroit Free Press reports. Be sure to read the report to scan the entire Top 25 list for yourself.

Jeep Wrangler likely to get aluminum body, will stay in Toledo
Mon, 27 Oct 2014Perhaps more than any other vehicle currently for sale in the United States, the Jeep Wrangler is viewed by purist fans as a vehicle that simply must maintain the status quo. In this case, that means a body-on-frame design, solid axles, a relatively large engine sitting up front and a removable top. It's always been that way, and it always will be.
Maybe.
According to the most recent reports, the next-generation Jeep will continue to soldier forth with a full steel chassis underneath its stamped bodywork. The biggest change, reports Automotive News, will be that said panels will be hewn from aluminum instead of steel, a seismic shift of a transition not unlike what's happened with the new Ford F-150. Because it won't be a unibody, the SUV will likely continue to be assembled in Toledo, OH as it (almost) always has been - the latter has been a source of heartburn in recent weeks for the Northwestern city in the Buckeye State.
