For Sale: a 1988 Jeep grand wagoneer; is in good structural shape but cosmedically it is a lillte lack luster but nothing that can't be painted over. Unfortunately for me my wife will not drive it because it is raised and about fell out of it her 1st time driving it and with us having a 1 year old I was informed it would be "appreciated" if I would just sell it so here I am. Neither one of them are perfect but here is a rundown of what I have:

CLEAR TITLE IN HAND, Has Reese hitch and hookups for trailer lights, Dash top in good condition no cracks or splits, 360 v8 engine with automatic transmission, 4x4 with high and low range that works great, Headlights are good, Working stereo head unit, Working power seats. Drive shafts, u joints and differentials are in good shape and both differentials are DANA 44's.

The Jeep has a rebuilt engine (I didn't do it the guy I bought it from did it)Has an Edelbrock 1405 600 CFM 4 BBL carburetor, Edelbrock intake, new alternator, MSD coil with high temp plug wires, Is running and driving, Has a transmission intercooler, Has what I was told is a 5 inches lift, Has 31x10.50-15's with 35-40% tread but does have some dry rot but I will throw in the two used spares I have, Has all the light housings and lenses, Has all the window glass, tailgate glass will not go down (someone cut the wires), Has wood grain vinyl removed (some studs pulled out some left none were ground off unfortunately), Has a sun roof that instead of fixing it someone calked it and pulled the switch out but the glass is good, the paint need to be re-done, the headliner and board are gone, Does not have emissions stuff on it even the converter is gone but I took off the smog pump and is still with it, Has all 4 speakers the front are dura brand and back are pioneer and power mirrors work.

I can sit here an tell you this is all but something will always be left out but I can tell you I have went through it and fixed or repaired with little work but please feel free to e-mail me with any questions big or small and please realize what you are bidding on. it is by no means finished (unless you want a hunting vehicle or a toy for the weekend) but with some TLC this could become a great project that will end in a vehicle that will last for years.

There is a $500.00 (five-hundred dollar) non-refundable deposit required that will be credited to final purchase price upon pick-up and must be paid within 24 hours of auction ending via Paypal ONLY.

Jeep Wrangler pickup's rear suspension is inspired by Ram

Thu, Dec 21 2017

Although we've learned about all there is to know about the new Jeep Wrangler, there is still more to discover about its upcoming truck sibling, such as the rear suspension. We knew it would be coil-sprung, but these new spy shots also indicate that the suspension is more similar to what's under a Ram 1500 than the Wrangler SUV. In the gallery above, the first two images compare the rear suspension of a new-generation 2018 Wrangler (left) and the Wrangler pickup (right). Immediately obvious is that the shocks on the Wrangler SUV are mounted at the back of the axle, while the truck's shocks are mounted at the front. It's also possible to see that the anti-roll bar on the SUV is mounted quite high up, while the truck's bar sits much lower, near the base of the rear axle. The third image shows a Ram 1500 on the left and the Wrangler pickup on the right. Here we can see that the Ram shares the same sort of low-mounted anti-roll bars and forward-mounted shocks, along with a Panhard rod. The two aren't quite the same, though. For one thing, the Wrangler pickup's rear axle looks more like the Wrangler SUV's than the one on the Ram. It's possible that these suspension changes were made in an effort to boost the Wrangler truck's payload capabilities. It's also possible that there are some handling quirks to the long truck body style for which a Ram-style suspension was better suited. We'll look forward to learning more about the differences when the truck is revealed, likely in early 2019. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

FCA plants skipping summer shutdown to keep up with demand

Thu, May 14 2015

Hopefully, some FCA US factory employees don't have big plans for the usual summer shutdown, because the automaker is keeping several plants running this year. Demand is so high that the company wants to keep models rolling off the assembly lines. Four FCA US assembly plants, all the engine factories, and some locations that build transmissions are staying open throughout the summer, according to the Detroit Free Press. Usually, these sites would see a two-week shutdown for the company to retool and perform repairs. This year, factories are staying open for FCA to support its strong sales. The lines that remaining humming through the summer show an inclination toward the automaker's popular SUV's and crossovers. They include the Jefferson North Assembly Plant in Michigan that builds the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango; Saltillo Van Assembly in Mexico that constructs the Ram ProMaster; Toledo Assembly Complex in Ohio that produces the Cherokee and Wrangler; and Toluca Assembly in Mexico that makes the Dodge Journey and Fiat 500.

Fiat Chrysler target 850k sales in China by 2018

Sun, 11 May 2014

Behind the vanguard of numerous Jeep models, two Chryslers, a smattering of Fiats and Alfa Romeos and local production through a joint venture with Guangzhou Automotive Group (GAG), Fiat Chrysler wants to increase sales in China more than six-fold by 2018. The group sold 130,000 cars in China in 2013, the aim for 2018 being 850,000 cars.
Ultimately it's expected that the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Cherokee, Wrangler, Renegade, the coming Grand Wagoneer and a sub-Renegade-sized crossover will either be built in or exported to the People's Republic. The Chrysler Town & Country and 300 will join the export list in 2016 and 2018 respectively, according to a report in Automotive News.
With a number of those vehicles not in production or perhaps even envisaged yet, and others not due on the local market until 2018, it will be interesting to see how Fiat Chrysler plans to achieve the target in the specified timeframe. The joint venture with GAG builds two products now, the Dodge Dart-based Fiat Viaggio launched two years ago - supposedly designed just for China - and the just-launched Fiat Ottimo, a hatchback version of the Viaggio. Fiat projected 300,000 Viagio sales in its first two years, that number has been adjusted downward to 94,000 and there doesn't appear to be an analyst alive that sees a good future for Fiat in China's overrun mainstream market. Still, last year's 130,000 group sales in China is a huge jump from 2012 sales of 66,000 units, but less than half the 300,000 units it projected.
