1982 Jeep Cj5 Renegade 304 V8 on 2040-cars
Jeffersonville, Vermont, United States
Up for sale is a 1982 jeep CJ5 renegade. This jeep was purchased in 2002 with the majority of the work being redone between 2002 and 2011. It has a fiberglass body, metal fenders and metal hood. The jeep originally came with a 1974 304 V8. The 304 is really peppy and the top end has been redone by a professional mechanic. At the time of purchase, the seller told me the V8 motor had approximately 25, 000 miles. Since that time, I have put on approximately 10,000 highway miles. This jeep has never been off-road in order to save a very impressive paint job, and has been undercoated to protect the underside and frame. The paint is saffhire blue with 3 coats clear. Has headman headers and side exhaust coming out before the rear wheels. All interior gauges work, including the tachometer and clock. Sidelights w/blinkers also work. The gas gauge reads lower than it should, but a new sending unit comes with the jeep if you choose to replace it. The seats are ultra comfortable. No rear seat. The transmission shifts smoothly and the 4 wheel transfer case works great. This jeep comes with a rare T-18 4 speed with the first gear (granny gear) transmission which is super for steep inclines without touching the gas. It just goes and goes at about 2 mph. The jeep comes with practically new 33 x 12.50 x 15 cooper tires with only 3,000 miles. The chrome rims are beginning to see some rust scaling mainly from condensation by sitting in the winter. The vehicle was only driven in the summer and never driven in the snow and never plowed. The top is rated as fair. It does the job but if you want perfection, a new top should be purchased. Jeep also comes with a bikini top which is new. This jeep burns no oil, starts up at the turn of the key, and there are no oil leaks. Brakes are great. The jeep is a real head-turner, with a beautiful paint job, renegade stripes, and deep throat exhaust. Unfortunately, I have no room to store this wonderful jeep, and reluctantly need to sell. This vehicle is also being listed locally, and the auction will be closed if it sells. A deposit of US $1000.00 within 48 hours of auction is required. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer unless the buyer is close enough to pick the vehicle up. I've owned it for 12 years, and it's time to reluctantly let it go. Thanks for looking at this beautiful jeep. |

Chrysler delays 2014 Jeep Cherokee media launch
Tue, 30 Jul 2013Chrysler is making the unusual move of delaying the first media drives of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, which were slated to start next week in Seattle. And while something like this is a rare occurrence, and one that most of the Autoblog staff can't recall happening this publicly or so close to the event itself, it won't effect the actual on-sale date of the new Cherokee, which is set to hit showrooms in September.
"Over the last couple of weeks during final quality and durability testing, we have discovered the opportunity to further improve powertrain calibration," Chrysler told Automotive News. This marks the second notable delay in the Cherokee's short life, after production was delayed for roughly a month earlier this summer.
Still, we'd rather Chrysler make sure the Cherokee is ready for primetime before flying media in from around the country. It shows a willingness to get things right the first time, rather than offering media drives and then tweaking the car after the fact.
NHTSA investigating power modules on Chrysler Group SUVs and minivans
Mon, 29 Sep 2014The Center for Auto Safety is officially petitioning the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to begin scrutinizing alleged problems with the totally integrated power module (TIPM) on about 24 Chrysler Group SUVs and minivans. The advocacy group claims that the part's failure can cause affected vehicles to stall or not start at all. NHTSA is still looking into the accusations and deciding whether a full investigation is actually warranted.
The CAS petition claims at least 70 TIPM failures, but according to NHTSA, six of the complaints are for models that don't have the modules. In 34 of the reported cases, the vehicles refused to start, and in 17 of them the engine stalled. There were also two allegations of smoke and one of a fire. However, none of these affected airbag deployment or resulted in a crash.
This petition isn't the first TIPM-related problem for Chrysler Group. A recent report in the New York Times alleged that it found 240 complaints potentially related to the issue on NHTSA's website alone. In September, the automaker also recalled 230,760 examples worldwide (188,723 in the US) of the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango replace the fuel pump relay circuit inside of the TIPM-7 with one external to the unit. The original part could allegedly cause the models to stall without warning. Even earlier, the company also recalled about 80,000 examples of the Jeep Wrangler and Dodge Nitro in 2007 to have the module reprogrammed.
2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Diesel and SRT climb onto stage
Mon, 14 Jan 2013This is indeed a case of not knowing how much we wanted something until it arrived. We've been big fans of the Jeep Grand Cherokee ever since the new model arrived a couple of years ago, and while the update you see here might seem just a slight refresh, it's actually much more than that.
For starters, the 2014 Grand Cherokee marks the return of a diesel model here in the States, with Chrysler's new 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 under the hood, churning out 240 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque, mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Of course, all of the Grand Cherokee's usual off-road goodies are on hand, with moderate tweaks to make it an even more capable vehicle when the going gets rough. Both the gasoline-fed 3.6-liter V6 and 5.7-liter V8 get the new eight-speed auto, as well.
The high-performance Grand Cherokee SRT also trudges on into the new model year, with very subtle tweaks found underneath the aggressive, slightly redesigned sheetmetal. The 6.4-liter Hemi V8 also gets eight-speed gearing, which Chrysler says will improve not only 0-60 times, but mid-range performance as well. Bring it on, we say.
