I am third owner of this Wagoneer.  The first owner had it for about a year and sold it to a gentleman in California who owned it for many years.  I bought it from him when he became too ill to to drive it.  Since owning it, I had it professionally enhanced with removal of the California restrictive equipment, and general engine rebuild with Quick-fuel tech 4bl carb and Edelbrock top end and air cleaner, Headman ceramic lined headers, new exhaust, aluminum radiator,, electric fan, aluminum washer reservoirs, A/C conversion, and ceramic brakes.  I had the front and rear bumpers removed and chromed along with the front grill.  The radio has been changed out to an Alpine system with i-pod connectivity and Blue-tooth for telephone.  I have installed a remote keyless entry.  Power windows and doors all work, the header is new.  Basically this is an awesome ride!  Again, all work has been professionally done here in Bowling Green (Corvette City) where mechanics take their work seriously.  The original speedometer went out around 83k and replaced.  I have it with me.  The only problem that I have with her is that when we installed the remote keyless entry, evidently we created a parasitic drain on the battery.  This is not a problem if you drive it often, but if you don't, I installed a toggle switch under the dash to cut off the circuit.  Take a look at "Buttercup"  she's a good ride and a lot of fun.  I am building a new home and I simply do not have the space to keep her in new location.  Otherwise, she has been kept in a climate controlled garage and has no rust.

Jeep recalls 92k Grand Cherokee SUVs over electrical issue

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Chrysler is recalling 91,559 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs from the 2014 model year due to some serious electrical issues. All of the affected models were built between January 8 and August 20, 2013.
The NHTSA report states that, "Due to a disruption of computer communications and loose alternator ground wires, the affected vehicles may experience random illumination of multiple instrument cluster warning lights, loss of cluster illumination and loss of anti-lock brake system (ABS) and electronic stability control (ESC) function." The loss of ABS or ESC would greatly reduce a driver's ability to control the vehicle if things get squirrely, and since these failures would not be illuminated on the dashboard display, drivers would not be warned of the issue, increasing the risk of a crash.
The recall is expected to kick off sometime this month. Chrysler will notify affected Jeep owners and dealerships "will update the ABS and instrument cluster module software and tighten the alternator ground wire," according to NHTSA.

Jeep's Wrangler Hellcat and six other sweet concepts for Moab

Thu, Mar 10 2016

Jeep. Wrangler. Hellcat. You read that correctly. And while it's just a concept for this year's Moab Easter Jeep Safari, it has us dreaming about blasting through the desert at 200 miles per hour. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles released a whole slew of Easter Jeep concepts at an event at the company's Auburn Hills, MI, headquarters today. The 50th annual Moab Safari will take place in just a couple of weeks – it's a sort of mecca for Jeep owners, and for the past few years, FCA brings its concepts out to the rocks and trails of Moab to prove that these are more than mere one-off, delicate showcars. Our own Brandon Turkus was live at FCA's reveal event, and he passed along a bunch of notes, in addition to the official stuff from Jeep. Here are some details about each concept, with full photo galleries and videos of each Jeep creation.
