This jeep is rough.  See the pictures.  I have owned the jeep for about 10 years and it has been a great off roading jeep and even a daily driver at times when needed.  It comes with the four extra rims and all terrain tires seen in the photos.  The AMC 360 starts right up with no knocking and only smokes for a few minutes after sitting up for a longer period of time.  It has a TF 727 3 speed transmission that was rebuilt about 7 years ago.  It has a functional 229 transfer case and it has no problem getting out of 4 low.  Recently the vacuum activated 4 wheel drive developed a leak near the switch under the dash and it should be an easy fix.  Before this leak the 4 wheel drive worked great and shifted on the fly.  It currently has mud tires, as seen in the pics) but they are older and need to be replaced.  It does have all four center caps and two of the rims have center caps, and for the wagonner fans it has a functional clock.  AC worked the last time I charged the system.  I had planned to build a tube frame and turn it into a fun off roading jeep.  I no longer have space for it in my yard.  To many other projects.  Please feel free to ask questions.  I say again this is a parts/project vehicle.  There are lots of little things that need fixing and I do not wish to misrepresent what you are getting.  Drive train is solid, but it does leak fluid from the front main and the power steering reservoir leaks fluid.  You will have no problems with cutting and welding on this old girl to build up to what ever you would like.  Frame is solid with no rust.  It does have 2 inch add a leafs but one spring pack got slightly damaged on my last rock crawling venture.  The paint is faded, but the jeep is pained in durabak coating.  Please email with any questions.     Actually mileage is unknown.  The dash gauge cluster has been changed out.

NHTSA upgrading Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango headliner fire probe

Wed, 15 Jan 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation into headliner fires experienced by a small number of Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango owners has been upgraded to an engineering analysis, the step before the initiation of a recall. In August last year the investigation began with 146,000 Grand Cherokees from 2012 after three complaints were received, but a report on Edmunds says it has been expanded to include 593,299 vehicles covering the 2011-2013 model years for the Jeep and the Dodge Durango, which uses the same headliner assembly, because of possibly 52 incidents of fire.
In some of those incidents drivers have reported a burning odor, smoke or open flames that were contained to the headliner or migrated to another area of the passenger compartment. The culprit has apparently been found: NHTSA blaming an electrical short in the sun visor vanity light wiring, which is routed under the headliner and held in place by three screws. Chrysler began its own probe into the issue when it was first reported and is still looking into the situation while, "fully supporting the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's investigation."

Jeep sets all-time sales record in 2012

Wed, 09 Jan 2013

Last year was good to Jeep. Chrysler has announced its trail-rated brand set an all-time global sales record in 2012 by moving 701,626 units. That number easily surpasses the previous record set in 1999 when Jeep sold 675,494 models. All told, the brand saw a 19-percent sales increase worldwide over 2011, and much of that swell can be traced directly to the Wrangler. While the Grand Cherokee led Jeep sales, the Wrangler posted record numbers both globally and within the US, moving 194,142 and 141,669 units in each market, respectively.
Meanwhile, the Compass beat its previous global sales record with 103,321 units rolling off of dealer lots. In the US, Jeep sold 62,010 Patriot units, breaking that model's previous record as well. Jeep's impressive performance in 2012 marks the second year in a row the brand has seen double-digit percentage sales increases. Check out the full press release below.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT

Jeep's Super 'Ute Is Fun Thrown In The Face Of Conventional Wisdom
Let's talk asses for a moment. What do they have to do with the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT, you ask?
Well, we're here to tell you that this SRT can haul some. Lots of them, as a matter of fact: Jeep has increased the towing capacity of its most powerful SUV to 7,200 pounds. Assuming the average donkey weighs about 400 pounds, the Grand Cherokee SRT can haul ass to the tune of 18 burros, give or take a covered trailer or so, which is significantly more than it could in previous years. In 2013, the machine could manage 5,000 pounds, while the first generation was rated at just 3,500. The increase is mostly attributable to a new eight-speed automatic transmission and beefier rear axle, and it's a welcome update for those who'd like to use their SUV as, well, an SUV with an emphasis on utility.
