I have my rugged CJ7 up for sale. This jeep has been in my family for the better part of 15 years, but i have just had a baby, so i need a more infant-carrier friendly vehicle. I am extremely meticulous in my vehicle maintenance; i often replace entire sets of parts instead of just the broken piece. Since i have been the owner of this jeep, i have performed a tremendous amount of work to keep it running strong. This jeep will probably not win any beauty pageants, but it will take you to all of them.
By vehicle sub-system i have replaced, maintenanced or updated:
Fuel
New fuel tank
Fuel pickup
Filler hoses
Filler neck
Gas cap
Soft lines
Fuel pump
Fuel filter
Carburetor -- Aftermarket Holley with manual choke and an ring air cleaner element available in any parts store.
Cooling
New brass-core radiator and cap
Water pump
Thermostat
Stainless bolts for the thermostat housing (old bolts rusted in place)
All rubber hoses
Heater core
Heater blower motor
Engine
Replaced the rear main seal (engine does not leak oil any more)
Timing chain (probably not necessary, but i already had the water pump out)
Ignition coil, plugs, wires, distributor cap and button
Replaced PCV valves and grommets
Electrical
Battery is less than 6 months old
Headlamps are Hella round enclosures with H1 bulbs -- which you can buy in any parts store, unlike the old sealed beam units.
All parking and exterior indicator lights
Interior
All new seats (front and rear)
NOS seat risers were used up front
Replaced seat belts and buckles
Floormats and steering wheel cover
Rear seat is a fold-and-tumble for additional space in the back
All new grade 8 fasteners were used when installing the equipment
All door and top seals were replaced
Drivetrain
Remanufactured Borg Warner/Tremec T5 5-speed manual transmission from JeepTransmissions. This is the same basic transmission that was installed in the old fox body mustangs, this is not the Peugeot unit that some jeeps came with.
Added a twin stick transfer case shifter -- this makes shifting from 2WD to 4WD and low to high range a breeze
Flywheel was resurfaced
Replaced pilot bearing
Replaced clutch disc
Replaced pressure plate
Replaced clutch engagement mechanism
Dana 300 was torn down and had new bearings and seals installed
Replaced aging U-joints with spicer U-joints to rebuild the drive shafts
Light weight forged aluminum wheels and General Grabber tires. I think this upgrade added 1 or 2 mpg by itself.
Braking
Replaced master cylinder
Replaced front hard lines
Replaced calipers and pads
Replaced all soft hoses
Replaced rear drums, springs and shoes
As you can see, i have invested some time and energy to maintaining this jeep through the time i have owned it. I have not modified it in any irreversible manner nor have i added any crazy lift kits. This is just a jeep at this point. It would be a great daily driver or a base for any serious off-road project. This jeep starts, runs and drives pretty well. The carb is tuned and it even works surprisingly well in the cold. The body has a few rust holes, but the frame and other equipment are all solid.
This jeep includes full-height steel doors and the original fiberglass hardtop.
Also available:
For an additional $100, i will include the original steel rims that came with the jeep. You could use these for mud or snow tires.
For an additional $300, i will include a set of new and never installed leaf springs suitable for a 4-inch lift. I bought these with the intention of replacing the entire suspension with an updated system, but in the end i never decided on a replacement.

Jeep Wrangler gets the wide-track treatment
Mon, 07 Jan 2013When we read the tip about a Gulf-state diplomat in Rabat, Morocco who had supposedly "merged two Jeep Wranglers," we figured the two off-roaders were somehow linked front-to-back. Oh no. As you can see in the image above, taken from video of that vehicle actually traveling down the road and needing more than one lane to do it, the two Jeeps were put together side-by-side.
The seriously widebody truck is said to have six wheels, one at each corner and two in the middle. That's about all anyone seems to know about it at the moment, and that's probably enough - in these situations you know better than to ask why, just watch the video below.
Jeep Twitter account hacked, bad language, poor grammar and some hilarity ensue
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Just a day after Burger King's Twitter account was compromised by "unauthorized users," Jeep's social media feed has been similarly hacked. Both instances of digital incursion share some similarities - the BK hackers changed the company's logo for McDonald's familiar golden arches, saying a sale had occurred, while the Jeep miscreants have replaced Jeep's branding with that of General Motors property Cadillac.
The resulting tweets from the damaged Jeep account have been a pretty brutal, to put it bluntly. Most of the content coming from the hacked account is unpublishable here, using language that is peppered with racial epithets, and poorly worded "shout outs."
In addition to the defamatory tweets themselves, the hackers have significantly altered the layout of the page. Jeep's header image now features a picture of the Cadillac ATS to go along with the Wreath and Crest, some language calling out that car as winning the 2013 North American Car of the Year award, and this gem: "The official Twitter handle for the Jeep(R) - Just Empty Every Pocket, Sold To Cadillac =[" Also, perhaps in an ode to yesterday's Burger King heist, the background image for the page now features a McDonald's-themed donk. The devil's in the details, we guess.
Watch this 9-year-old drive Jeep Wrangler off-road [w/poll]
Wed, 28 May 2014This nine-year-old girl might be better at rock crawling than some people twice her age. But is it worth putting her in danger to do it? According to her father on the Jeep Experience Facebook page, her name is Faith, and she has been offroading with her family since she was two. At nine years old, she's now driving her dad's Jeep over the rocks by herself.
As you can see she's belted in and under her father's direct supervision and guidance. She shows immense confidence for someone her age and follows her dad's instructions on exactly what to do. Although, this could still be a very dangerous situation if something went wrong.
Previously, we saw a similar video with a six-year-old on a motorcycle driving on public roads through the desert. Voters decided by only a six-point margin that the adult should be in trouble for letting the kid ride the bike. Here, we have a slightly older child driving a vehicle off road. Where do you fall in this case? Is it still wrong to hand over control to a child? Let us know in the poll below and scroll down to watch the video.
