1985 Jeep Cj7 Renegade Hardtop 4x4 79k Mi 6cyl 5spd No Reserve on 2040-cars
No Reserve Auction!! 1985 Jeep CJ7 Renegade 79k Original Miles This Jeep CJ7 is a beautiful classic that gets a lot of attention when driving around town. Yesterday I drove it to the mountains twice, once without the hardtop and once with it. The Jeep drives great, no vibrations or shimmy and has no problems keeping up with traffic in town, on the highway or in the mountains. Engine: 258 4.2L 6cylinder motor that runs great, is very peppy and runs good. Overall the motor runs great, I don't notice any leaks on the ground after driving and it does not smoke. The carburetor needs some adjustment. When driving the rpms are a little high at stop signs almost as if the choke is not opening. The Valve cover gasket has the classic leak and the exhaust muffler/tail pipe could use replacing. Transmission/Transfer Case: 5spd T5 Manual Transmission that shifts perfect, no play in the transmission and no grinding or crunching. The Clutch is very tight and does not slip. The transfer case shifts easily in and out of 4x4. It is a Dana 300. Drivetrain/suspension: The Jeep drives excellent and has that soft tight stock suspension. There aren't any loud clunks or noises, it is very smooth. The drivetrain and suspension are completely stock. The power steering is super sensitive and the power brakes stop the jeep easily. Interior Controls/Switches: Everything in the interior works including the gauges, speedometer, odometer, wipers, blinkers, horn, cig lighter and heater. The heater cranks and blows hot. Paint/Body/Rust: The paint is Garnet Red Exterior with Renegade Striping. It appears that at one point it had been resprayed and the renegade decals were not installed at that point. The front driver fender needs fixing or replacement. The paint is beautiful and very reflective, shiny and lots of luster. The front grill/fenders and windshield frame have many sand chips. The body has rust spots on both rear quarters, both are a little larger then a silver dollar and there are a couple small blister spots under the decals. The body mounts are all very solid and not rusted thru. Overall very clean, the rear of the jeep does not show any rust near the tailgate or body mounts. Interior: The interior is beautiful, the Garnet Red interior is in excellent shape. The seats are incredibly clean and do not have any significant rips, tears or seem separations. The rear seat on the top has some small cuts. The carpet is in excellent condition, very clean without any stains or rips/tears. The drivers side floor under the carpet is rusted thru and will need to be cut out and a new floor installed or covered up. The interior paint is in great condition otherwise. The dash pad does have a few cuts in it too. The radio works and has the stock speakers behind the dash. Hardtop/Doors: The black hardtop has not been refinished and is the original. It is in great shape and could use a fresh coat of paint at some point. The doors do not have any rust, the windows roll up and down very easily and the locks work from the inside. Unfortunately I do not have a key for the doors, it disappeared. The wing windows open and close with ease and the seal tight. Overall: This is a beautiful Jeep and ready to go. With a little bit of TLC you could have a rare classic to enjoy for many years to come. The CJ7 is used and 29 years old it may have blemishes I didn't capture on my camera. I do my best to illustrate the condition, I may have missed something so be sure to ask all questions you have prior to bidding or winning the Jeep. The Jeep is being sold as is, where is, without warranty or guarantees. I am not required for your state emission or safety inspections including Colorado.

7 months later, Jeep 'trailer hitch' recall still stalled
Tue, 14 Jan 2014For the past few years, Chrysler and its CEO, Sergio Marchionne, have gone head-to-head with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and its boss, David Strickland, over the government safety agency's request for Chrysler to recall almost three-million Jeep vehicles due to what NHTSA says is a safety issue that has caused at least 51 deaths. After a three-year investigation and Chrysler's initial refusal to issue a recall because it deemed the vehicles safe and built to the day's federal requirements, last summer, the two parties compromised on a "voluntary campaign" to inspect 1.56 million vehicles, those being the 1992 to 1998 Grand Cherokee and 2002 to 2007 Liberty.
Those vehicles were designed with their gas tanks between the rear axle and the bumper, and NHTSA says that in rear-end collisions, damage to the fuel tank has caused fires responsible for those 51 deaths. The compromise reached last summer was that Chrysler would inspect 1.56 million vehicles and, "if necessary, provide an upgrade to the rear structure of the vehicle." Practically speaking, that meant Chrysler would replace aftermarket trailer hitches, but would take no action if a vehicle had a factory-installed hitch or an aftermarket hitch from Mopar.
A report in The Detroit News says the "voluntary campaign" is just now getting under way, with Chrysler saying last week that the design of the replacement part had been finalized and it was tooling up "to deliver the required volume." Seven months later, still in question is whether NHTSA will crash-test the fix engineered by Chrysler, noteworthy because not only did the vehicles in question pass every safety standard necessary to be cleared for sale at the time, there are still questions (to those of us on the outside) as to how the Jeeps at issue fare among their peers in such incidents. Either way, Chrysler and NHTSA apparently still disagree on the efficacy of the remedy itself: the carmaker says it might help in low-speed crashes but not high-speed collisions, a position the NHTSA is at odds with. All of this means the campaign doesn't yet have an end in sight.
Jeep's Wrangler Hellcat and six other sweet concepts for Moab
Thu, Mar 10 2016Jeep. Wrangler. Hellcat. You read that correctly. And while it's just a concept for this year's Moab Easter Jeep Safari, it has us dreaming about blasting through the desert at 200 miles per hour. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles released a whole slew of Easter Jeep concepts at an event at the company's Auburn Hills, MI, headquarters today. The 50th annual Moab Safari will take place in just a couple of weeks – it's a sort of mecca for Jeep owners, and for the past few years, FCA brings its concepts out to the rocks and trails of Moab to prove that these are more than mere one-off, delicate showcars. Our own Brandon Turkus was live at FCA's reveal event, and he passed along a bunch of notes, in addition to the official stuff from Jeep. Here are some details about each concept, with full photo galleries and videos of each Jeep creation.
