I bought this Jeep a few years ago, sadly it must go as I have no time to enjoy it due to my job. It was painted a few years ago and now shows some use with the appearance. There are a few scratches on the vehicle, mostly around the door area..but still looks pretty good overall. I added the wheels and tires this last April. They are 38x15.5x15 Nitto Mud Grapplers on Mickey Thompson wheels. The body is fiberglass and sits on 7 inches of lift. The engine is a 350 crate motor that was new when I bought the jeep, I would put the mileage on this motor to be less than 3000 but I am just guessing as the odometer is not accurate with the new motor. But the jeep is only lightly used every few months, again due to my job.

It has a Muncie 4 speed with a granny first, she has no issues with power when driving on the hwy. There are full time lockers front and rear. The guy I bought this from spent a lot of money on this vehicle and it shows. Keep in mind that this vehicle was built as a rock crawler, so while you can, and I do, drive this around town....she rides a little rough with the suspension. Sounds, drives and looks good...get's a lot of thumbs up from people.
I am including a hard top and steel doors with the auction. The hard top has a cracked glass on the right rear, but other than that it is in good shape. The doors were brand new when I got the jeep and in fact have never been mounted. Problem was that they were painted before I attempted to mount them and the door hinges were in the wrong position. So, the paint around that area is scratched a little due to when I pulled the hinges and adjusted them. The doors are bare on the inside, will need covering and inner door handles. They do have the glass. I have no keys for the locks.
Please ask questions before bidding. Your welcome to come look at it as well. This vehicle is being sold as is. I reserve the right to end the auction without warning as it is for sale locally as well.

Chrysler recalls 350k vehicles over ignition switches

Thu, 25 Sep 2014

Chrysler has announced a recall covering 349,442 vehicles due to ignition switches that can either become stuck or move without warning. All of the affected vehicles are from the 2008 model year, and were built before May 12, 2008.
The automaker has learned that ignition keys on some vehicles "may not fully return to the 'ON' position after rotation to the 'START' position during engine-startup," the company said in a statement. Additionally, "an ignition key may not fully return to the 'ON' position after rotation to the 'START' position and may inadvertently move through the 'ON' position to 'ACCESSORY' or 'OFF.'"
Chrysler says it is unaware of any related injuries, and notes that while reduced braking, engine or steering power is possible in such instances, the airbags are not affected. The later stands in contrast to General Motors' recent rash of high-profile recalls, and it's an important distinction that Chrysler (understandably) felt necessary to call out in bold print in its press release.

Another crazy custom Jeep Wrangler spotted in Morocco

Sun, 03 Mar 2013

What in the world is the vehicle you see above? Well, um... yeah. We have no idea. According to the video description from YouTube, however, it's a modified Jeep Wrangler, and it comes from the same person who created the equally insane side-by-side merged Wrangler you saw here.
We can clearly make out the Wrangler-shaped passenger compartment up top, but as for the other bits and pieces that make up this rather amazing machine, your guess is as good as ours. At the very least, it seems to us that the car's wheelbase has been given a significant stretch, and the grille may have come from an International LoneStar Harley-Davidson Special Edition semi truck.
What other components are sourced from the massive International hauler? No idea. We suggest you check out the video below and draw your own conclusions. Oh, and if you've got any other ideas, feel free to let us know in the Comments.

Jeep sets all-time sales record in 2012

Wed, 09 Jan 2013

Last year was good to Jeep. Chrysler has announced its trail-rated brand set an all-time global sales record in 2012 by moving 701,626 units. That number easily surpasses the previous record set in 1999 when Jeep sold 675,494 models. All told, the brand saw a 19-percent sales increase worldwide over 2011, and much of that swell can be traced directly to the Wrangler. While the Grand Cherokee led Jeep sales, the Wrangler posted record numbers both globally and within the US, moving 194,142 and 141,669 units in each market, respectively.
Meanwhile, the Compass beat its previous global sales record with 103,321 units rolling off of dealer lots. In the US, Jeep sold 62,010 Patriot units, breaking that model's previous record as well. Jeep's impressive performance in 2012 marks the second year in a row the brand has seen double-digit percentage sales increases. Check out the full press release below.
