Jeep Wrangler Cj7 Cj8 Scrambler Lifted Monster V8 Off Road Beast Huge Texas on 2040-cars
Mansfield, Texas, United States
I'm selling my 1983 Jeep CJ8 scrambler. If you know anything about jeeps you know the scramblers are rare and highly desirable. I hate to sell it but we have another baby on the way so its time to let it go. There is no way I will get all the money I've put in it back out of it but that's how these project go. Let me say first I will NOT trade unless it's for a 2012-14 Honda odyssey minivan with less than 30k miles on it with power doors and leather seats. I thought I would keep the jeep forever but selling it is the right thing to do so I have to let it go. We have put over 20k in this jeep over the years and that's not even including the original purchase price of the jeep or all the labor. Before I dumped all my time and money into it was already very clean. I looked at a bunch of scramblers before I bought this one. It wasn't rusted out or rotted the floors; inerfenders and whole tub was in great shape and very solid. When I had it painted they removed the little rust that was there and we replaced both front fenders with steel replacements and put on a new windshield frame. I spend 6k on the paint and body work alone it was done the right way so this jeep will look great for years to come. Here are the details on the jeep: I put in a huge AMC 360 5.9 liter motor with a hot cam in it. It has tons of torque and runs great! It starts up every time on the first crank and idles smooth. It has a 4 speed Borg-Warner T18 heavy duty transmission and Dana Spicer Model 300 Transfer Case. The foundation of the restoration was a brand new "Throttle Down Kustoms" Steel Frame so it has zero rust! -- Google it they are a great frame! When we Got the new frame we replaced all the body mounts, bushings and a ton of other parts. It has a Dana 44 front axle with warn hubs from a Jeep Waggoner. A Dana 60 from a 1ton Dodge with a locker in the rear. Both axles were shortened to fit under the jeep and matching widths. The axles have matching 4.56 gears in both with all fresh parts and one piece chromoly axles with 5x5.5 bolt pattern. Along with WARN hubs. It also has fresh breaks all the way around. It has 37 inch Goodyear Mud Terrains tires that have less than 5000 miles with matching spare on 15" steel wheels. It has a 4.5 in Rubicon express springs over axle lift. It has a brand new best top full soft top. It has a full custom roll cage. Its 2 separate pieces that bolt in so if you want the truck look its easy to take out. Rhino lined the interior and put in best top thermal seats. Up graded headlights along with Procom spots on the front bumper. Ruged Ridge ABS 6in Fender flares Off road Rampage TJ bumper with smittybilt conversion brackets. Poison Spider rockers Poison Spider rear bumper and tire swing. I have 2 sets of hard doors. One set is in perfect shape and one set is a little rough I was going to make half doors. It will come with both. This Jeep is a BEAST on or off road. It will crawl over anything you point it at but will also cruise around town all day. That being said it is a highly modified 30 year old jeep so know what your getting into. I would say this jeep is 85% from being perfect but all the big stuff is done. If your looking for a good looking fun jeep that your not scared to tinker with or maybe a good father son jeep this would be perfect. I have a clean blue Texas title in my name. CJ7, Wrangler, Monster, lifted, Offroad, off road, Hummer, Unimog, Mechanic Special, sell for more. cj, cj5, cj6, willis, willy, williys, yj, tj, jk, |

Inexperienced Jeep driver buries his Wrangler at sea
Mon, May 16 2016There's an old maxim in off-roading that states, "Four-wheel drive doesn't keep you from getting stuck, it just gets you stuck in worse places." The truth of this statement was perfectly illustrated recently in a YouTube video of a Jeep Wrangler digging its own grave at the beach. On May 11, a YouTuber named Dan M uploaded a video he titled, "Drunk guy doesn't know how to off-road and ruins nice Jeep." The video, shot at dusk on a rocky looking beach, shows a blue Wrangler driving out into the surf without a care in the world. Dan, providing commentary along with an unseen female companion, was impressed with the Jeep driver's dash at first. "Wow, he must do that a lot because he ain't scared of getting stuck or anything," said Dan. As the Wrangler got deeper into the water, the Dan's friend expressed her doubts that the Jeep driver would make it out, especially when the Jeep got snagged on a little spit of sand sticking out into the water. Dan wasn't worried, however. "No, he'll manage to get out of there, he'll make it out of there. He'll back out and get out," he said. Dan's confidence in the Jeep driver was sadly misplaced, unfortunately. The driver managed to get the Jeep stuck on the sand bar then made the rookiest of rookie mistakes–he just gunned it. "Oh man, he's done! He's done!" yelled Dan as the Jeep driver proceeded to dig a huge hole in the sand that sunk the Wrangler up to its frame just as the tide started coming in. With that kind of dunking, especially in salt water, that Wrangler was probably a total loss, much like the Grand Cherokee that got washed downriver last week somewhere in Europe.

Jeep gives a trio of customs an encore showing at SEMA
Wed, 05 Nov 2014While Jeep certainly had some new customs on display at this year's SEMA show, it wasn't afraid to recycle a few that people might have missed from earlier this year. The maker of many beloved off-roaders already displayed the Jeep Cherokee Dakar, Maximum Performance Wrangler and Wrangler Mojo at the 2014 Easter Safari, but they all made it to SEMA for an encore.
Based around the Trailhawk, the Cherokee Dakar (pictured above) imagines an even more off-road-capable version of the crossover. The concept wears a mix of Silver Steel Stain paint with Flame Red graphics and rides on 17-inch wheels wrapped in 33-inch BFGoodrich Mud Terrain tires. To back up the rugged look, the Dakar is fitted with rock rails and skid plates protecting the oil pan, front suspension, fuel tank and other underbody parts. It also sports prototype parts from Jeep Performance Parts, including a lift kit and fender flares.
The Wrangler is one of the paragons of off-roading, and as the name suggests, the Maximum Performance Wrangler concept is meant to be the ultimate example of what it can do. The custom features locking Dana 60 axles front and rear, a 4:1 Rock-Trac transfer case, prototype 4-inch lift kit and 37-inch Mud Terrain tires over beadlock wheels. To stay on the trails well into the night, a bar of LEDs is mounted above the windshield. And finally, the Mopar Blue exterior kind of makes the vehicle look like the world's toughest blueberry.
Experience Jeep's 75th Anniversary at Easter Jeep Safari | AutoblogVR
Tue, Aug 30 2016It may not have been known as a Jeep just yet, but it was all the way back in 1941 that the very first Willys MB quarter-ton 4x4 rolled down the assembly line in Toledo, Ohio. That General Purpose American military machine would go on to become one of the most recognizable vehicles in the world. And the name Jeep, which was adopted for the off-roader by soldiers in World War II, has been famous ever since. In the 75 years since that first military Jeep was born, the brand has built a sterling reputation for off-road prowess. Jeep's range-topping vehicle, the Grand Cherokee, bears almost no resemblance to its military forebears. But that doesn't mean it's not ready to leave the pavement and get dirty. See what we mean in our latest Autoblog VR episode. That wasn't the only Jeep vehicle we took for a spin while celebrating the brand's 75th anniversary at the Easter Jeep Safari in Moab, Utah. Jeep fans have been salivating over the prospect of a pickup truck for years, and the company has finally confirmed that it's coming as a 2018 model. It will be built at Jeep's spiritual home in Toledo, Ohio, the same city that spawned the company's military roots. Even though Jeep's Crew Chief Concept isn't the actual pickup that will go into production, it's still an awesome ride, and we were happy our virtual-reality camera gear could capture it in its natural habitat. Each week, new episodes will launch on the AutoblogVR App. We'll preview them here on Autoblog, but for the full immersive experience, head over to the app, which you can download for free from the App store and Google Play.
