  You are viewing a very original, unrestored 1982 Jeep CJ-5 Laredo. This is a super solid original paint Jeep that is very sharp and has great patina. It still wears its original Laredo stripes and decals too it is quite rare to find the Laredo option on a CJ-5. Here are some details,

Orig. rebuilt 258 straight 6 engine
T-176 4 speed transmission
4WD
New 4 inch suspension lift kit
Newer 33x12.50 tires

  As you can see, thousands and thousands of dollars have been spent to make this Jeep a reliable and super capable on/off road CJ! This Jeep runs and drives great and will do 70 MPH on the interstate all day long. It drives down the road nice and straight too which is a lot to say for a lifted Jeep with big tires! The engine is very strong and does not run hot or smoke. There is a slight oil leak and I'm not sure where its coming from. The 4 wheel drive works well and it does have lockers front and rear. 
  The body is very solid. It still maintains all of its original panels and tub. There are no rust problems o deal with and the 32 year old original paint is still presentable! The front seats are good and there is a new rear seat and center console in the box. You will need to source a soft top and doors but I have every piece of hardware to mount a Bestop Supertop. 
  Overall, this is a really clean original CJ. These Jeeps are getting harder and harder to find in this condition. Don't miss your chance to own this appreciating classic. Many of my auctions end with just a phone call. I can arrange shipping worldwide. 205-276-1918.

NHTSA closes investigation into Jeep Liberty fires

Sun, 16 Mar 2014

The investigation that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened into the Jeep Liberty in October 2013 has been closed. NHTSA received two (!) complaints about fires starting in the driver's door, thought to be caused by the master power window switch. The initial estimate was that 80,000 Libertys could be roped into a possible recall, but according to a report in the Detroit News the agency examined records for 425,000 Chrysler products that used the same window switch, including the Dodge Nitro and Chrysler Town & Country minivan.
After canvassing 265 warranty claims related to the master switches, NHTSA concluded that the rate of fires compared to the "large population of vehicles" was rather low, and that there was no trend pattern behind the few issues it did find. Perhaps with that, and the closure of the trailer hitch investigation, the Liberty can finally rest in peace.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles: The next five years

Tue, 06 May 2014

Unless you've been living under a rock for the past 24 hours, you've no doubt read about all of the big future product news coming out of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles today. We had individual brand reports from Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Maserati and even Ferrari, but in the interest of simplifying and summarizing, we're going to list out the hard facts once more. Of course, with all of this still off in the future, there's still the possibility that a few changes will be made. But as of what we know right now, here's what's coming, and what's going away.

2016 Jeep Wrangler to ditch solid axles to save weight?

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

Hey, Jeep fans. If you think the idea of a funky-looking, car-based Cherokee revival is offensive, have a listen to what might be in store for the next-gen Jeep Wrangler. Automotive News is reporting that as Jeep develops the 2016 Wrangler, weight reduction is a crucial target, and the Wrangler's rugged solid axles could be sacrificed in the name of better fuel economy.
We've already heard the next Wrangler will go on a serious diet using aluminum body panels and an air suspension system, so the idea of a four-wheel independent suspension setup for this OG SUV isn't all that surprising. Besides, it's not like an independent suspension would limit the Wrangler's off-road abilities - just check out the Hummer H1. In fact, it might be the aftermarket parts companies - not Wrangler enthusiasts - who would be most disappointed by such a drastic suspension change, as the article states that the Wrangler's solid axles and coil-link suspension make it the most popular SUV for customization.
There are probably still a couple years before we'll start hearing any concrete details about the 2016 Wrangler, at which time it will be interesting to see how stricter fuel economy and crash safety regulations have been balanced with traditional Wrangler cues like its removable doors and roof and folding windshield. Let us know in the comments below if a Wrangler sans solid axles is any less of a Wrangler.
