1988 Jeep yj wrangler 4cylinder that is great on gas engine does not smoke or use oil. 5 speed transmission driven almost daily but should get some all around TLC. body not bad for being an 88. frame is in good shape, had rust issue at passenger side rear shackle (very common on jeeps, so common they sell a repair section to fix it, which was already done by a professional welding shop last fall) 31" tires factory jeep aluminum wheels 4x4 works but needs u-joints I never use the 4x4 aside from getting up the driveway in the snow. although I do drive this year round I don't drive it in the snow I have other vehicles for snow. this is more a summer cruiser for me. in spring the top goes down and usually doesn't go back up till fall just a fun little buggy to bounce around in topless in the summer.

Driver seat is in tuff shape, e brake pedal doesn't work , drives fine in 2wd but in 4wd you can tell it needs u-joints, speedo doesn't work so true mileage is unknown and was when I bought it as well. some of the recent items I did include frame repaired, steering column bushings, tail lights black soft top (not the gray one pictured), black 1/2 door uppers, new starter, new battery, tailpipe, glass pack muffler (loud, maybe too loud for some) brake line, leather steering wheel (used) This is an old style jeep, it is not like the new ones at all. nor does it ride like a new one, more like driving a go cart . this is a good jeep for some one that wants to invest some time into it,One nice thing is the availability of parts new and used is no only endless but also the most affordable vehicle to buy parts for ive ever had. for me its just a little run-a-round buggy. I have too many other projects and not enough time or room to dedicate to this jeep.

Come check it out in person I will post more pictures on Tuesday. if it sells an immediate deposit of $200.00 will be required threw paypal with the balance due within 7 days. if the deposit is not received within the first 36 hours or the jeep not paid in full by the 7 day period it will be considered a "dead deal" and deposit will not be refunded. so if you bid please make sure you have the means to complete the deal. once the jeep is paid for in full if you need to leave it here waiting for transporter or if you cant get here right away to pick it up I can store it here no problem, just let me know what you need. ****please be aware the state of Rhode Island will NOT issue a title for vehicles this old so it will be sold on a bill of sale and a copy of my current registration. that should be all you need to register it in other states.

Jeep gives a trio of customs an encore showing at SEMA

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

While Jeep certainly had some new customs on display at this year's SEMA show, it wasn't afraid to recycle a few that people might have missed from earlier this year. The maker of many beloved off-roaders already displayed the Jeep Cherokee Dakar, Maximum Performance Wrangler and Wrangler Mojo at the 2014 Easter Safari, but they all made it to SEMA for an encore.
Based around the Trailhawk, the Cherokee Dakar (pictured above) imagines an even more off-road-capable version of the crossover. The concept wears a mix of Silver Steel Stain paint with Flame Red graphics and rides on 17-inch wheels wrapped in 33-inch BFGoodrich Mud Terrain tires. To back up the rugged look, the Dakar is fitted with rock rails and skid plates protecting the oil pan, front suspension, fuel tank and other underbody parts. It also sports prototype parts from Jeep Performance Parts, including a lift kit and fender flares.
The Wrangler is one of the paragons of off-roading, and as the name suggests, the Maximum Performance Wrangler concept is meant to be the ultimate example of what it can do. The custom features locking Dana 60 axles front and rear, a 4:1 Rock-Trac transfer case, prototype 4-inch lift kit and 37-inch Mud Terrain tires over beadlock wheels. To stay on the trails well into the night, a bar of LEDs is mounted above the windshield. And finally, the Mopar Blue exterior kind of makes the vehicle look like the world's toughest blueberry.

Australian Jeep marketing stunt goes awry [w/video]

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

Jeep fans in Australia are none too happy with the off-road brand following a contest that saw ten new Cherokees sold for just $10,000 Australian (about $9,400), roughly a quarter of the vehicle's price Down Under.
The contest, called the "World's Most Remote Dealership," gave Aussies the chance to snag an ultra-affordable Cherokee Longitude (analogous to the US-spec Latitude trim), provided they could get to a secret dealership in the remote wilderness of western New South Wales, near the border with the state of South Australia.
In order to get the exact location of the dealership, though, potential customers needed to download an app, which would release a phone number 9:00 AM AEST on Thursday (7:00 PM EDT, Wednesday night). The first ten people who could call in and prove they could afford to finance $10,000 and get to the remote dealership, were given the location of the remote dealership.
