1978 Jeep CJ5 4x4 Project. Jeep purchases in July of 2010. It was running and driven on the street. I decided to clean it up and make some "upgrades. Jeep is equipped with a 360 cubic inch V8 engine. Body is a fiberglass replacement tub along with the front fenders and fender wells. The hood and front grill are original steel. The original ignition was removed and a single wire Mallory HEI system with 8mm wires was installed along with new spark plugs. The original Mopar alternator and regulator was replaced with a one wire Delco alternator. The original wire harness was replaced with a Kwik Wire system which includes a new fuse panel and relays. Engine has headers and a customer made 3" dual pipes that exit just after the rear axle. Four brand new Ranchero 9000 series shocks are installed. New mirror kits, hood hinges and hood latches and new dash. Tires are 31 x 10.5 x 15 on white wagon wheels. Tires are like brand new. Jeep has a custom made steel angle iron rear bumper with tow ball. Seats are from a new style Jeep that we were going to modify to fit in the CJ. Original old style Jeep steering wheel. Included is a brand new master cylinder and booster to give you power brakes. A complete set of new stainless brake lines from Classic Tube. A brand new set of Autometer white faced retro gauges. A steel gas tank. A box of spare parts. The two steel lines in the spare parts kit we were using for the fuel lines. This is a project piece so the Jeep currently is not in running condition. The wiring to the engine compartment along with the head and tail lights is complete. The following needs to be done: gas tank with fuel lines, interior wiring, brake system including lines and booster with master cylinder, seats, roof and doors. We worked on this on and off for a year. We just don't have the time to finish it. Send me a TEXT message if you are instated in it. 732-754-3980. You will be responsible to come and tow it away.

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.
2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 4X4
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Ice skates are spectacular on frozen water, yet they are dreadful everyday footwear. I consider the Jeep Wrangler equally as specialized.
I recently spent a week with a 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 4X4. Introduced for the 2007 model year, the Wrangler Unlimited is a standard JK two-door with 20.6 inches added to its wheelbase and two additional doors bolted to its passenger compartment. While Jeep offers the Unlimited in seven different trim levels, the desirable Rubicon is the most capable when the pavement ends, as it boasts a slew of hardcore off-road tools including front and rear electronic locking differentials and a front sway bar that can be disengaged at the touch of a button for improved articulation. My I-Look-Like-A-Traffic-Cone test model started with a base price of $34,095 (plus $995 destination). Options including a five-speed automatic transmission, Uconnect, tow package and a premium soft top, drove the bottom line up to $38,630.

Chrysler recalling 630k Jeep models worldwide
Thu, 06 Jun 2013Despite its refusal to recall 2.7 million Jeep Grand Cherokee and Liberty models this week over a gas tank fire risk, Chrysler will be recalling 630,000 Jeep Compass (pictured), Patriot and Wrangler vehicles around the globe for a pair of entirely different reasons.
The affected Compass and Patriot models are all from the 2010 to 2012 model years - 254,000 in the United States, 45,400 in Canada and 109,000 elsewhere in the world. In these models, a software error may result in the late deployment of the side airbags and seatbelt tensioners. In the event of a crash, failure of these systems could result in more serious injuries for the vehicle's occupants.
Jeep's go-anywhere Wrangler also faces a separate recall due to power steering fluid lines that can possibly wear a hole in the transmission oil cooler line. According to Chrysler, the vehicles could then leak fluid, possibly damaging the transmissions. Roughly 221,100 Wrangler models are being recalled because of this issue, all of which are fitted with Jeep's 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine. In the US, 181,000 vehicles are affected, with an additional 18,400 in Canada and 21,700 additional units worldwide. A Chrysler spokesperson said that no crashes or injuries have been reported with either case, according to the Associated Press.
