If you know why a TJ is lengthened then you know why a 2 door XJ has got the perfect wheel base. You also know that 2 door XJs with a 5 speed manual transmissions are very rare. You also know that finding a good one is very hard to find if at all. If you find one that can be both driven on the highway at 75 MPH and take on the hard trails, well you found it. Body: No rust anywhere. Floors are like new. Good paint with good looking dents. It's a trail rig, has lots of dents. All glass is there and the body has no cracks. The body is structurally sound. Interior: Comfortable. Heater system works with cold AC. Engine: 4.0 with 113,000 on it. Very strong engine and returns good fuel mileage for a jeep. Does not use oil. Maintains slightly under 210 degree temperature. Has power steering pump cooler. Off Road: Tomken 6.5 inch lift, adjustable control arms (very stout arms), adjustable track bar and JKS sway bar disconnects. Tom Woods driveshaft and slip yoke eliminator. Detroit locker in rear and Track Lock Diff in front. 4.56 superior gears. Rusty's heavy duty steering bar, Old Man Emu front shocks, Warn winch and bumper. Hanson Offroad rear bumper. 35 Inch Goodrich KM2 tires with lots of thread left. Tires have been perfectly balanced and there is NO shake driving this XJ. Wheels are only a year old. Maintenance: Starting with newest maintenance. Maintenance was done as needed or to keep jeep in perfect condition. At 112,087 replaced drivers side wheel hub assembly. At 111,291 did complete brake job. Replaced rotors and pads with calipers in front and drums and brake pad in rear. At 111,000 replaced spark plugs in engine. Coolant was flushed and changed. At 109,000 replaced upper and lower ball joints and tie rod ends. Alignment done. At 104,000 front and rear axels were overhauled. All u-joints were replaced. Clutch was replaced. Radiator, water pump and all hoses were replaced. Oil changes are done as needed and diffs and transfer case have Mopar synthetic lube in them. Jeep can be parked on the driveway because it does not leak. It needs nothing to take it away, all maintenance is done. The BAD: Signal light lever does not return to center. When going up a long steep hill the blend doors in the heater will go to heat because the vacuum box is gone. But it returns to vent after the hill. These never bothered me. I will be glad to answer all questions. Yes, it is worth the asking price. It's rare!

2014 Easter Jeep Safari kicks off with six concepts
Thu, 10 Apr 2014The 2014 Easter Jeep Safari is set to begin this weekend in Moab, Utah, and while it's sure to be a blast for Jeep enthusiasts from all corners of the world, we're looking forward to the wild, off-road ready concepts that Jeep will be bringing to the red rocks. As you can see in our handy headline, there are six such vehicles in total, each of which sports a variety of tweaks and custom bits.
Unlike in years past, where Jeep graced us with some outrageous concepts like the Mighty FC or J-12, this year's vehicles are a bit more restrained and a bit more buildable by enthusiasts. That's not by accident, officials tell us. They wanted to put this year's focus on attainable vehicles and accessories from Mopar and Jeep Performance Parts that existing owners can use to augment their own vehicles. So let's get to it.
We'll start with the Wranglers first. There are three concepts of the jeepiest of Jeep coming to Moab - the Level Red, Maximum Performance and Mojo. The Level Red and the Mojo (seen above) are similar from a suspension and engine standpoint. Both boast a two-inch Jeep Performance Parts lift kit, which officials tell us is coming to market in the next few months. There are a pair of Dana 44 crate axles on both the front and rear, while a Jeep Performance Parts Rock-Trac transfer case has been fitted. The 3.6-liter V6 engines on both Jeeps can breathe a bit easier thanks to a new cold-air intake and exhaust system.
NHTSA closes probes on Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey
Wed, 09 Jan 2013The Detroit News reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially closed its investigations into 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2004-2005 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey models. The separate probes found no issues that pose safety concerns. NHTSA began investigating certain Grand Cherokee SUVs over complaints that power steering hoses could detach during operation, thereby increasing the risk of a vehicle fire. Of the 24 reports of failure, none alleged smoke or fire in the engine bay, and Chrysler has since modified the power steering cooler assembly to reduce the likelihood of the failure.
Meanwhile, certain Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey vehicles garnered a government probe after receiving complaints that the models were equipped with faulty scissor jacks. The agency had received six reports of the jacks failing or causing injuries, including one incident that resulted in a fatality. But NHTSA says the jack failure rate is similar to those found in other vehicles. In those six cases, the government agency found the jacks were being used for something other than changing a tire, and investigators could not determine whether the emergency brake was set or the rear tires were properly chocked.
Dodge and Jeep recalling 895k SUVs for possibility of headliner fires
Fri, 11 Jul 2014Dodge and Jeep are announcing recalls of a total of 895,000 Durango and Grand Cherokee models worldwide from the 2011 through 2014 model years. There's a possibility that the wiring in the sun visor can short circuit and cause a fire. It specifically affects vehicles built between January 5, 2010, and December 11, 2013, and there are approximately 651,000 of them in the US, 45,700 in Canada, 23,000 in Mexico and 175,000 outside of North America.
Screws that fasten the sunvisor to the headliner may pierce wires in the visor, if the part has been removed or serviced, potentially causing a fire risk. If the wires short circuit, they could overheat and potentially combust. The automakers report three injuries caused by this defect, and according to the investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, "there may be a total of 52 unique fire incidents."
To fix the problem, Dodge and Jeep will inspect the vehicles for suspect wiring, and all of the models, whether damaged or not, will get a new sun visor spacer with a wire guide to stop the possibility of short circuits. According to the automakers' announcement, "this condition is not present in vehicles which have not had the headliner or vanity mirror serviced." They will notify affected owners, and repairs will begin in August.
