My plans were to build the ultimate family weekend mobile, that we could take out and have a good time , see the country and just let the breeze blow through our hair...Well things change and i have to sell the jeep....
There is a ton of new and upgraded part's on this jeep....I know some people frown upon the little 4cyl motors but they are very capable engines with a couple of upgrades and very reliable to boot...
Here is what has been done to the jeep...

Plus more but that's the most i can think of off the top of my head...As you can tell there is a lot of money wrapped up in this jeep... I have put maybe a couple hundred miles on it since owning it , it just ended up sitting more then anything , its a shame really...It has not seen the woods or trails with me just sits at my shop, Not sure on the previous owners but its clean...There are a few scratches here and there like any used auto but presents itself really well ...It was built for fun , so taking it off road wouldn't hurt this little rig in any way unless you abuse it ,on road going to the mall or take off road to climb over a mountain if that's what you want to do with it..It's the beauty of owning a jeep...This one will get you there too...

The bad---- I don't have the upper soft door halves , there is no carpet in the jeep ( not bad to me i rust proofed the whole inside ) but a carpet set is cheap if you want one ,

The jeep starts up great , heater works , lights work , horn works ,wipers work , Brakes work great ,Emergency brake works good, Motor runs great , transmission shifts great ,goes down the road great (like a jeep) and is a super fun vehicle...No check engine lights....If you have never driven a lifted jeep with decent size tires they have a ride all their own , lets just say they are not cadillacs but they are not supposed to be either , they are jeeps and made to go anywhere any time and have fun doing it..You either are a jeep type person or you are not , its just the way it goes..


Awesome platform to take it to the next level and build your dream jeep  or just leave it as is and enjoy it!!

This is a cool little jeep!!Wish i could keep it and enjoy but i cant so here you go....

Four Wheeler crowns Ultimate Factory 4x4... who wins?

Thu, 15 Nov 2012

Nearly every automaker doing business in the SUV or pickup truck segments offers a package designed to improve the off-road capabilities of its wares. But, of course, not all such factory kits are created equal. How, then, to separate the wheat from the chaff? Gather each of them up and put them through their paces, naturally.
The folks from Four Wheeler and PickupTrucks.com joined forces to run just such a comparison test, with the winner named the Ultimate Factory 4x4. A total of seven vehicles showed up to the fight: the 2012 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, 2013 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, 2012 Nissan Frontier PRO-4X and Xterra PRO-4X, 2012 Ram Power Wagon, and 2012 Toyota 4Runner Trail and Tacoma TRD T|X Baja Series.
With the contestants in place, the whole crew put each vehicle through a battery of tests that included skidpad and acceleration measurements, a hillclimb, a rocky stairstep course and a rock garden. Considering the nature of the beasts, on-road ride and comfort were not part of the routine.

2014 Jeep Compass/Patriot sing their swan songs with a six-speed automatic

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

Unless the governor, Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne, gives them a reprieve, the 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot are expected to meet their makers sometime next year. Should they perish, it's a shame that it would happen just as they've shed the continuously variable transmission that was their major bugbear, and just as the Compass has gotten its best looks yet.
Both will roll with a proper six-speed automatic transmission, courtesy of PowerTech. Noise-resistant gears and tuning by Chrysler boffins should alleviate the unappealing sounds that were given off by the older CVT. Unless, that is, you choose to have either model equipped with Freedom Drive II; the serious off-road package, available on both baby Jeeps, will still come with the CVT. The base transmission on the entry-level Sport trim remains the five-speed manual.
Otherwise, it's minor changes for the Compass, set off by the new 18-inch wheel option, trim pieces around the car and a back-up camera. The Patriot gets seat-mounted airbags, but is carryover otherwise. With their expected demises perhaps a year away, not much has changed otherwise. Engine choices comprise the 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 158 horsepower and 141 pound-feet of torque or the 2.4-liter four-cylinder with 172 hp and 165 lb-ft.

What's really going on with the 2014 Jeep Cherokee's transmission issues?

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

On September 23, Automotive News reported that Chrysler had idled the second shift workers it hired just five weeks prior at its Toledo Assembly Complex to build the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. At the time, Chrysler said it had "built the critical number of vehicles we need to stock dealerships once containment is released" and did not want "to put additional strain on our logistics partners ... upon release." That reasoning was not only unusual, it didn't seem to make sense.
It appears the center of the nine-speed issue is software, not hardware.
That same day, the Detroit News ran a piece claiming workers at the Toledo factory said the halt was due to issues with the Cherokee's transmission. It put the number of already-built Cherokees needing fixes at 1,000 and said that some of the workers not laid off had been instructed "to take the Jeep on long test-drives." That made more sense. Three days later, on September 26, Automotive News reported that the 500 workers laid off had been reinstated, with engineers "speeding repairs on the SUV's powertrain software." The AN piece didn't put a number on how many units are being fixed, but it did say that 12,000 have been built and are awaiting delivery to dealers. The best it could say about when dealers will get them, however, is that "progress on a fix is being made. It's unclear when shipments to dealers will start."
