Jeep Cj5 4x4 on 2040-cars
Marshall, North Carolina, United States
|
Frame off restoration. Back half of frame is rebuilt with 2x4 box tubing. 1045 1 1/4 dom tubing rock sliders run down the sides. It is way stronger and safer than when new. New floorboards.
Came factory with the General Motors 2.5liter 4 cyl Iron Duke. It's got factory power steering and power disc brakes, both work great. It's also got factory front swaybar. I installed a new clutch, slave cylinder when I had it all apart. 4X4 works great. Horn, wipers and all the lights work. Speedo and voltmeter work. Fuel Gauge doesn't work. I installed a new fuel sending unit in the tank when it was all apart too. Fuel gauge is all it needs. I might have it fixed by the end of the action. There are no duster covers made for the CJ5 that I know of so I adapted a CJ7 cover to fit it. That and the bikini top are all the top it's got. I bought it with the Virginia title signed by previous owner, buyer slot is blank and ready for you to sign. On Aug-23-14 at 07:16:02 PDT, seller added the following information: I was kidding when I said 'Mud or rock abrasions' for trim. Body is really straight, has no rust of bondo and has a new tough acrylic enamel paint job. Also engine seems to be in good shape. Doesn't leak or burn oil. Good compression, spark plugs look older but ok. Oil looks good. Does need a tuneup. Idles a little rougher than it should and likes to die when you pull up to a stop sometimes. I'll fix this stuff if I have to but would rather give someone else a good deal if they can fix the little stuff. |

Finding surfing spots in the UK is tough work, even in a Jeep
Sun, 06 Jul 2014You truly have to love surfing to practice the sport in the United Kingdom. The area isn't exactly teeming with warm beaches full of sunbathers, and absolutely no easy spots to find big waves. To be a UK surfer, you need to be a fearless adventurer, not to mention quite lucky. And driving a Jeep might help, too.
Surfers Oli Adams and Micah Lester are traveling around the British Isles in a Jeep Wrangler Overland trying to find the best surf spots out there. These guys don't fit the laid-back surfer stereotype, but that's because finding waves in the UK is hard work. They say that the waves at some of these spots only exist for about three hours every year when the current and winds are just right.
To find these surf spots, the Jeep's offroad capabilities are paramount. In some areas, as you'll see in the video, there isn't even a beach, just jagged rocks. It would be like the movie Endless Summer, that is, if it could start snowing at any moment. These guys are clearly dedicated to their sport.
Jeep recalls 92k Grand Cherokee SUVs over electrical issue
Thu, 07 Nov 2013According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Chrysler is recalling 91,559 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs from the 2014 model year due to some serious electrical issues. All of the affected models were built between January 8 and August 20, 2013.
The NHTSA report states that, "Due to a disruption of computer communications and loose alternator ground wires, the affected vehicles may experience random illumination of multiple instrument cluster warning lights, loss of cluster illumination and loss of anti-lock brake system (ABS) and electronic stability control (ESC) function." The loss of ABS or ESC would greatly reduce a driver's ability to control the vehicle if things get squirrely, and since these failures would not be illuminated on the dashboard display, drivers would not be warned of the issue, increasing the risk of a crash.
The recall is expected to kick off sometime this month. Chrysler will notify affected Jeep owners and dealerships "will update the ABS and instrument cluster module software and tighten the alternator ground wire," according to NHTSA.
Millionth Jeep Wrangler JK to roll off line this morning
Fri, 17 May 2013According to a report on the Chrysler Communications Facebook page and one fairly grainy image of the production line, at around 11:00AM Eastern this morning, the one-millionth Jeep Wrangler JK will roll out of the company's Toledo assembly plant.
The third-generation or "JK" Jeep Wrangler has been around since the 2007 model year, and has obviously been more popular than ever. With a greater than ever number of trim levels, two-door and four-door Unlimited models and hardy off-roading Rubicon packages, the JK offers more to choose from than ever for those looking for something in a traditional Jeep. In fact, with the modern 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 powering it, the 2012 model year saw more than 140k Wrangers sold here in the US; the best-ever figure for the model.
With a model refresh due out for the Wrangler in 2015 (along with the likely addition of a diesel engine option), we expect that sales will continue to roll right along, too.
