Hey all,

For sale is my 1983 Jeep Cherokee Pioneer. This Jeep has been my project for about 6 years now. I've put over 14k of work into it since the beginning, but I will give you the run down on what was done and what it has included. For starters, it has the 5.9L 360 V8 under the hood with a 2bbl carb and a 727 Torqueflite 3-speed auto. The motor was rebuilt with new seals about 4-5 years ago with documentation, and the transmission is much newer with about 2 years. I have never wheeled this truck offroading, as you may see the body work is done and painted. It has a 4" custom lift, 31" General Grabbers, and a rebuilt vac line 4 Wheel Drive. I had a full custom built true dual exhaust done by Murphy's Garage out of Linglestown, PA. Two Flowmaster 50s and Hedman Headers to match. I also upgraded the sparkplug wires to MSDs.

 I had put in a full stereo into this jeep, but the subwoofer and respected amplifier will not come with. I will replace the front speakers as one was kicked on accident a few years ago and not replaced. I have gained a few vehicles and projects and this has been sitting for a little in my driveway. It runs and drives but I have had some issues with a dead battery, I feel it is a grounding issue or wiring. I have had this Jeep as a daily driver for more than a few years before I got another vehicle with better gas mileage, that is the only reason why it has sat. I had never had any real issues with this Jeep and I do not intend to sell it with what is going on currently. Before the end of the sale, I will fix the issue and the high bidder and come and inspect. I am considering replacing the rubber on the windows as well, but that can be discussed again with the high bid.

I do currently have ALL the stock parts for this jeep to include some extra parts that I had collected from over the years. I have stock springs, another grill, lights, carbs, and pretty much everything else including the factory trim. They will come with the sale and if anyone wants a full list of the parts I do have I will have to fish them out.

I have won a quite impressive award with this truck once I was finished with it at the Carlisle Mopar Nationals in the Jeep Cherokee section. I received first place and really haven't done much with the truck since then, but would love to have another caring owner to take it further. I loved this jeep since I bought it and so does everyone else who is kicking me for selling it. But it has to go. Please ask questions if you have any. Thank you,

Europe gets Jeep Wrangler Polar limited edition

Wed, 04 Sep 2013

Jeep will be bringing an all-new, limited-edition model to the European market called the Wrangler Polar. Based on the Wrangler Sahara and set to make its debut at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show, the Wrangler Polar sports new Hyrdro Blue paint, gloss black 18-inch wheels, a body-color hardtop, and the regular mix of Mopar styling accessories. Billet Silver Metallic and Bright White are available for those that don't dig the glossy blue, while a two-door variant will be available in addition to the four-door pictured above.
The Polar's interior features similar tweaks; Pearl White contrast stitching can be found on both the seats and steering wheel, while ceramic White bezels and other accents give a nice contrasting look to the cabin.
Underhood sits an engine that should make American Wrangler enthusiasts weep - a 2.8-liter, four-cylinder turbodiesel. With 200 horsepower and 339 pound-feet of torque channeled through a five-speed automatic transmission, the Wrangler Polar should handle itself just fine on normal roads. British buyers will also be able to select the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6. For rougher stuff, Dana axles can be found front and rear (Dana 30 up front and Dana 44 in back), while the Command-Trac four-wheel-drive system and its two-speed transfer case should be enough for when the roads disappear.

Chrysler recalling hundreds of thousands of Jeep Grand Cherokee and Commander SUVs

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

The public might associated ignition switch recalls with General Motors - and with good cause - but that's not the only automaker calling its vehicles back in to fix that sort of issue.
Last month we reported that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration was investigating an array of Chrysler Group vehicles for electrical-related safety issues. The administration and Chrysler subsequently issued a recall for 700,000 Dodge Journey crossovers, Dodge Grand Caravan minivans and Chrysler Town & Country minivans. But while the Jeeps that were also under investigation were not covered in that recall, they are being addressed in a separate one now.
Although Chrysler reports that it is only aware of a single accident stemming from this issue, it is "committing now to conduct a recall out of an abundance of caution." The recall affects the 2006-2007 Jeep Commander and 2005-2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee, of which it reports there are 792,300 on the road: 649,900 in the United States, 28,800 in Canada, 12,800 in Mexico and a further 100,800 outside of North America.

Jurassic Park made a big impact on these Jeep drivers

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

For a certain cohort of young folks, Jurassic Park is a touchstone film from their childhood. Not only did it play into practically every little boy's love of dinosaurs, the movie included some great action scenes and special effects that still hold up today. In its latest video, The Aficionauto takes a look the Jurassic Park Motor Pool, a California car club with over 40 fans who created replica vehicles from the iconic film.
The club is made up of an interesting cross-section of people. Many of them were Jeep Wrangler fans that already loved off-roading and Jurassic Park, and liked the idea of bringing them together. Like any close-knit club, it ends up being about community and people coming together to share their interests. It's quite a heartwarming video. Also, be sure to stay until the end because The Aficionauto teases a future Jurassic Park-themed vehicle. Scroll down to check out the motor pool.
