1979 Jeep CJ5 with clear title. Jeep is mostly in pieces and is not complete. You are bidding on axles, frame, full steel body, roll cage, seats and brackets, transmission and transfer case in need of rebuild, wiring harness for the tub, speedometer, wheels and lots of small parts. NO ENGINE. I do not see the vin tag on the body but may be covered by the undercoating. May not be there. There is a vin number on the dash panel. The dash panel has been cut and bent through this tag, making it hard to see. There is no way to know the true mileage but ebay made me enter a number so I used 300,000. Title is marked unknown mileage.
I bought this jeep with another and put one together and this is what is left over. It will need a LOT of work to get on the road.
The axles are amc 20 rear and dana front and appear to be in very good shape but I have never used them. I do not know the gear ratio but the axles were a set. No brake drums on the rear. No brake lines. Spring perches are mounted on top of axles for lift. The frame is very solid but has been covered in heavy diamond plate steel from just in front of the rear forward spring mounts back (about half the frame) and has been painted. I assume the frame was rusted in the back but I did not do the repair so I do not know for sure. Springs in good shape but needs bushings as there is one missing. The tub appears to be from an older jeep as it has the tool box under the passenger seat. (might explain the absence of the vin tag). There is surface rust on the tub but it is not rotted out. Even the tool box floor is there, although it has a crack that will need welded. I do not know if there has been previous work done on the body. You will need to do some body work to be nice but this is a good body to work with. There has been some modifying on the tub to alter the front body mounts but does not alter structure that I can tell (see pictures). No tailgate and the fuel tank is in the back. You will need a body mount kit. Fenders are nice and grill is fair and not rusted out. Windshield frames (2) are rusted through but could be patched and used. No glass. Roll bar is straight and not rusted. There is a steering column but is missing parts. Uses a GM column. Foot pedals are there but no e-brake. Front seats are 2 brand new corbeau 5 point harness but have a couple minor tears from being moved around (see pics). Also a nice aftermarket fold and tumble rear with no brackets (or you could have my black and white Laredo rear seat from my driver and I'll keep the fold and tumble, you choose). Also a set of cheap plastic racing seats in good shape included for a total of 5 seats. Transmission is a T-150 and needs rebuilt. The transfer case is a dana 20 and might be ok but will need checked out. Please assume the transfer case is no good and will need rebuilt. No top at all. No radiator. No drive shafts. No steering box or shaft. 31 x 10.50 tires are not road worthy but do hold air. Wheels are nice but need painted and are wider than stock so you could probably mount 12.50's on them but I don't know for sure.
You will need a trailer or flat bed truck to take this home. I will not ship it. Please ask any questions and I will try to answer as best I can. If you need more pictures let me know. Thanks for looking!

Updated 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee ace same controversial moose test it failed in 2012 [w/video]
Thu, 02 Jan 2014Some background: one of the more scandalous international incidents of he-said/he-said from 2012 was when Swedish magazine Teknikens Varld put the Jeep Grand Cherokee through its "moose (or elk) test" and reported that the SUV nearly rolled over. That lead to a whole lot of accusations and rebuttals: more than one website and Chrysler's own blog reported that the Jeep was overloaded; Chrysler said Teknikens printed the magazine then let Chrysler respond, Teknikens answered all of the charges in a lengthy post and said Chrysler was given a chance to comment before it went to print; when Chrysler sent investigators to oversee the test and the Jeep didn't go up on two wheels as it did in the first test, furthermore all four wheels stayed on the ground when Auto Motor und Sport tested a Grand Cherokee in the same way.
Teknikens then re-ran the test with a new vehicle and said it's been doing this test since the 1970s, uses the loading information that Chrysler provides to the Swedish motor authority and the previous Grand Cherokee passed with no problem. In the second test, the Jeep failed again, then it gave Chrysler engineers access to the car's electronics and ran the test again. In that second round the Grand Cherokee didn't repeat the lurid two-wheel action, but in eleven runs it blew out front left tire seven times. Chrysler still objects to the results of all of those tests and maintains that vehicle was safe.
The 2014 Grand Cherokee was given its shot at the gauntlet in the latest round of moose tests, and Teknikens Varld reports that it passed without any problem at all, its stability control working perfectly, controlling motion at low speeds and all the way up to 44.1 miles per hour. You can watch the video of the new test and read the press release from the magazine on the updated Grand Cherokee below.

Jeep gives Cherokee its yin and yang with Sageland and Urbane concepts
Sat, 19 Apr 2014Among the design concepts Jeep has prepared for Beijing Motor Show this year are a pair of Cherokees dressed up in contrasting schemes.
In one corner we have the Sageland concept pictured above, drawing its inspiration from Shangri-La with an Ivory Peal tri-coat and bronze trim for the grille, fascia appliqués, roof rack, sunroof, mirror caps and exhaust tips. Inside it's all earth tones with light gray Nappa leather seats and red and blue top-stitching inspired by traditional Chinese themes.
Meanwhile the Urbane concept (pictured right) takes the Cherokee in a different direction with steel blue metallic paintjob and black accents. Inside it adopts the theme of Chinese calligraphy with Piano Black accepts and dark red Nappa leather.
