There are two very small(smaller than a dime) rust spots. Paint is in excellent cond. Tires have around 50% tread left. I was always going to put new rubber on it, just never got around to it."

This is my 1979 Jeep CJ5. It has the hard to find AMC 401 cu in, not the 304, it just wouldn't let me take that part off of the ad. The engine runs perfect. Basically stock otherwise. T150 3-speed trans. The synchronizer is out from 2-3. That is about the only problem with the vehicle. Could use some new rubber eventually as it has more of a street tire on it. Best Top SuperTop is 3yrs old and in excellent cond. It is the black denim color. Also have Bikini top. Bedliner on inside of tub. Milodan chrome valve covers. Headers. Exhaust out under both doors. It is loud, but sounds awesome. 2 very small surface rust spots. Runs and drives perfect. Straight down the highway. Color is kind of an OD green. I hate to sell it. This is the second time I have owned the jeep, had it in high school, sold it when I went to college. Bought it back 3 yrs ago. Now, need to take care of some things finacially, and unfortunately, the Jeep has to go. The previous owner did all the work. Overall in wonderful condition.

Chrysler recalling hundreds of thousands of Jeep Grand Cherokee and Commander SUVs

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

The public might associated ignition switch recalls with General Motors - and with good cause - but that's not the only automaker calling its vehicles back in to fix that sort of issue.
Last month we reported that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration was investigating an array of Chrysler Group vehicles for electrical-related safety issues. The administration and Chrysler subsequently issued a recall for 700,000 Dodge Journey crossovers, Dodge Grand Caravan minivans and Chrysler Town & Country minivans. But while the Jeeps that were also under investigation were not covered in that recall, they are being addressed in a separate one now.
Although Chrysler reports that it is only aware of a single accident stemming from this issue, it is "committing now to conduct a recall out of an abundance of caution." The recall affects the 2006-2007 Jeep Commander and 2005-2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee, of which it reports there are 792,300 on the road: 649,900 in the United States, 28,800 in Canada, 12,800 in Mexico and a further 100,800 outside of North America.

2016 Jeep Wrangler to ditch solid axles to save weight?

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

Hey, Jeep fans. If you think the idea of a funky-looking, car-based Cherokee revival is offensive, have a listen to what might be in store for the next-gen Jeep Wrangler. Automotive News is reporting that as Jeep develops the 2016 Wrangler, weight reduction is a crucial target, and the Wrangler's rugged solid axles could be sacrificed in the name of better fuel economy.
We've already heard the next Wrangler will go on a serious diet using aluminum body panels and an air suspension system, so the idea of a four-wheel independent suspension setup for this OG SUV isn't all that surprising. Besides, it's not like an independent suspension would limit the Wrangler's off-road abilities - just check out the Hummer H1. In fact, it might be the aftermarket parts companies - not Wrangler enthusiasts - who would be most disappointed by such a drastic suspension change, as the article states that the Wrangler's solid axles and coil-link suspension make it the most popular SUV for customization.
There are probably still a couple years before we'll start hearing any concrete details about the 2016 Wrangler, at which time it will be interesting to see how stricter fuel economy and crash safety regulations have been balanced with traditional Wrangler cues like its removable doors and roof and folding windshield. Let us know in the comments below if a Wrangler sans solid axles is any less of a Wrangler.
