1998 Jeep Cherokee Classic Sport Utility 4-door 4.0l on 2040-cars
Pawnee, Illinois, United States
|
A 1998 Jeep Cherokee Sport, with roughly 220,.000 miles. It has the 4.0 liter that I've ran Mobil 1 through since right around 100,000 miles. I've wheeled and daily driven this beast since 2008. It has never--not once--left me stranded. It has decent road manners, and is awesome off road, as because of the flex is huge. Here is a list of add ons I've installed: -Rough Country long arm 4 1/2 inch lift -Superior 4:56 gears -Newer 33 inch Cooper Discoverer M/T's -TNT Customs subframe stiffeners with 2 inch rectangular steel unbreakable rock rails -Heavy Duty front/rear steel bumpers -Warm 8000 pound wench -Safari snorkel -Bushwhacker pocket flares (which are cracked in a few places) -Tom Woods front driveshaft -skid plate -Optima yellow top battery -always had fluis changed, and all bearings/u-joints and brakes have been replaced or maintained. -radiator new in 2012 -alternator newer ISSUES: -headliner sagging down -driver door needs adjusted -trans has always shifted slow until warm..could just need filter and flush. but this does set off the check engine light. -exhaust manifold has a small crack that is noisy until warm. -it's dented and manly--built for fun, not for car shows. **I have a lot of blood, sweat, and money in this. Look up the parts I've listed, and you'll see that it totals between $8 and $10 thousand.. If an XJ is what you're wanting to build, this will save you a fortune and is READY TO WHEEL. |

What's really going on with the 2014 Jeep Cherokee's transmission issues?
Fri, 27 Sep 2013On 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."
Chrysler's Jefferson North plant builds 5-millionth SUV [w/video]
Thu, 15 Aug 2013Chrysler's Jefferson North Assembly Plant opened in 1992 for production of the first Jeep Grand Cherokee, but in the subsequent years, the Detroit plant has gone on to produce some of the company's biggest SUVs including the Jeep Commander and Dodge Durango. Earlier this week, the plant produced its five-millionth SUV, which, fittingly, was a Grand Cherokee.
Celebrating the plant's five-millionth unit, the silver 2014 Grand Cherokee was promptly donated to the USO. In addition to this milestone SUV, Chrysler also had a near-perfect 1993-95 ZJ Grand Cherokee on hand for the photo op. Scroll down for the Chrysler press release as well as a video showing some of the speeches from the celebration.
Jeepster name may be used for Fiat-based baby Jeep
Tue, 17 Dec 2013In 1948, Willys-Overland, the forbearers of Jeep, built a vehicle called the Jeepster. It was a funky little thing, designed as a mix of the more rugged Jeeps that came before with what was then a modern car, which arguably makes it the world's first crossover. The name was later revived from 1966 to 1972, which means for Jeep enthusiasts, it has some history.
Now, the modern Jeep brand may revive the Jeepster name for a new product, likely based on Fiat bones, that will slot in at the bottom of the brand's range underneath the soon-to-depart Compass and Patriot. The report comes from Australia's Drive, which cites a dealer source that has seen the vehicle.
That same dealer confirmed there is a link between the Jeepster and the rumored Fiat 500X, and that the former will be available in both front and all-wheel-drive variants. The source also claims both gas and diesel engines will be available, although as this is an Aussie site, we shouldn't take that to mean we'll get a diesel Jeepster in the US.
