1998 Jeep Cherokee (XJ)
  • 166,000 miles
  • 4.0 liter straight 6
  • Dana 30 front and Chrysler 8.25 rear, stock gearing
  • 33x12.5x15 BFGoodrich KM2 tires on 15" Crager D windows (about 60-70% tread remaining)
  • 4.5" Rubicon Express lift modified to remove the lift block and new shocks (less than 5,000 miles)
  • Smittybuilt XRC front bumper (properly mounted with grade 8 or better hardware)
  • Quadratec 9,000lb winch (again, properly mounted)
  • 4x KC 130w lights mounted to the roof rack (2x driving pattern, 2x long range spot pattern) - these things are really bright
  • 2x KC 55w rear floods (non-switched, can be used as work lights, backup lights or to illuminate your camp site)
  • Garvin steel roof rack with shovel, axe and Hi-Lift mounts (shovel and axe convey)
  • Hidden Hitch 2" receiver (again, properly mounted with grade 8 hardware)

If you are looking for a stock Jeep as a daily driver or a luxury SUV, go on to another ad right now. This XJ is meant for someone who wants to have some fun off-road but still be able to park it on a public street. One neighbor's kid calls it "muddy truck" and his parents call it "that thing" if that tells you anything about her. I'm pretty sure the roof is the only body panel which isn't dented (if you'd like, I can change that for the winning bidder). The front and rear wheel wells have been trimmed to accommodate the 33s. She has a 9,000lb winch to pull lesser rigs from peril and four 130w lights on the roof rack to illuminate the tears in the eyes of Hummer drivers while they are being winched out by a 15 year old truck. You should buy this XJ. She has taken me to some fun places and it's nice to have a rig you can beat on and have it come running back to you like your name is Chris Brown. So, despite the fact that she bleeds awesome, smells like fear and protein and will claw the face of it's enemy's like an off-strip Vegas hooker, I am now selling this she-beast to someone who will love her. 


The good: This thing goes anywhere. Motor runs well, transmission shifts without issues and 4wd engages with no problems. Recent work includes basic tune-up (distributor cap, rotor, plugs and wires), complete fluids (oil, trans, power steering and brake fluid), new steering box and lines with JCR steering box spacer, new starter, rebuilt rear springs (removed the lift block and replaced the factory u-bolts and the centering dowels), rear brake shoes replaced. Power locks and windows all work. Every bolt I've replaced has been replaced with a grade 8, equivalent or better. Current VA safety inspection - 100% street legal.

The bad: LCA bushings need to be replaced ($25 in parts and a couple of hours of labor) and the driver's door sags. It drives just fine but it makes a bit of a racket sometimes due to the worn bushings - mainly on hard, low speed turns. It doesn't bother me but you'll have to decide for yourself. 

The exterior: This thing is incredible. It looks like you just drove it out of Bartertown on your way to battle the zombie horde. If you don't think she looks awesome, I would recommend checking out a nice CPO Honda Pilot and might want to move on right now. Condition is 10/10 if you're awesome. 1/10 if you think clear coat and straight panels are important.

The interior: My neighbor's kid calls her "muddy truck" for a reason. The interior isn't fantastic. I removed the carpet from the cargo area which helps to clean up better when you need to put your wet tow strap away after pulling a Rubicon from a creek bed (true story). Driver's seat has some tears in the normal spot along the side. Some of the trim is cracked. Everything works but looks a little rough. Condition is 5/10 if you're awesome. 1/10 if you plan on wearing anything other than work clothes in the rig. (This is a Jeep, work clothes means Dickies not Brooks Brothers.)

Right now you're probably asking why I would sell such a kick-ass rig. Well, I have four Jeeps. Not my family, me. Four is too many Jeeps and this is the one my wife doesn't like riding in. She says people stare at us and not in a good way. I try to tell her they are just jealous but she has a hard time hearing me over the crunching sound Prius' make while I drive through them. Needless to say, I like her company and would like her to ride with me because she's funny and she smells nice.


Truck is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early if a local buyer is found.

Dodge revamping lineup with AWD Challenger and lighter Charger

Tue, Sep 6 2016

Dodge's current lineup is aging rapidly. The Charger, for example, is going on 5 years old but its platform dates back to 2006. FCA, according to Automotive News, is working on revitalizing Dodge's lineup with the first of some new models debuting later this year. The report reveals plans for the majority of FCA's brands, but the most interesting bit of information is an all-wheel-drive model for the Dodge Challenger, which is being referred to as the GT AWD. Mopar unveiled the Challenger GT AWD Concept at SEMA last year as a concept, but it looks like the idea stuck. The vehicle is set to make its debut this fall and will lead the way for a wide-body, Hellcat-powered version that will be released in 2017. That model will be called the Challenger ADR. The entire Challenger lineup will be redesigned in 2018, which includes switching over to the lighter Giorgio platform - the same one that underpins the Alfa Romeo Guilia Dodge will also redesign the Charger to accommodate the new Giorgio platform in 2018. A new two-door convertible could debut in 2021, resurrecting the Barracuda moniker. The aging Dodge Durango will get a light refresh in 2017 with the addition of an SRT model, which Automotive News reports will feature a 6.4-liter V8 engine. Other changes are in store for other FCA brands, including the debut of full-size crossover in 2018 for Chrysler, which will be followed by a midsize crossover in 2019. The Jeep Compass and Wrangler will get a redesign for 2017, with the Cherokee getting a light makeover, as well. The Wrangler-based pickup truck, which we recently spotted testing, is set for its debut in 2018, while the Wagoneer will come out a year later.

2015 Jeep Renegade leaks out ahead of Geneva debut

Mon, 03 Mar 2014

Meet the Renegade - Jeep's new baby crossover that's set to debut at the Geneva Motor Show this week. The folks at Jalopnik got their hands on a small batch of photos of the new little cutie, showing what appears to be a Trailhawk (read: trail-rated) version, as well as a more civilian-spec Renegade, complete with a new removable roof system, reportedly called My Sky.
Details are slim, though in addition to the exterior images, one photo of the interior has also been leaked, showing what appears to be a small, yet functional (and nicely appointed) cabin. Early reports suggested that the new small Jeep would be based on the Fiat 500L platform, though Jalopnik rightly points out that the Renegade looks an awful lot like the Panda 4x4. Regardless, there's still likely some 500L bones under there, and we'll know more once the official details are revealed in the very near future.
Head over to Jalopnik for more shots of the cute little Renegade, and stay tuned for more information as it becomes available.
