This is a one of kind Jeep Cherokee. This Jeep was custom built Marsfab Off road (marsfab.com) in Harrisburg Nc. The jeep was built to compete in the E.C.O.R.S. (ecors.com) race series. No expense was spared building this rig. Its a top competitor.
Drivetrain: engine is a jeep 4.0 with several mods done. The intake manifold and throttle body were custom ported by Newcomer Racing (newcomerracing.com). Its got 4 hole ford fuel injectors. The air intake was ran through the firewall to the interior. Its got a remote mounted oil filter that runs through a large oil cooler. Engine has custom mount plates and motor mounts by Brown Dog Industries (browndogindustries.com). Engine has a stainless steel header that exits through custom built exhaust. Transmission is an AW4 that is pretty much stock except having the line pressures raised slightly. The transmission is cooled by a remote mounted cooler with its own electric fan. All transmission lines have been rerouted to keep from being smashed by suspension components (common on cherokees used for off road racing). Axles: Front axle is a dana 30. The houseing has been heavily trussed with 3/8ths plate to keep from bending and breaking. The inner c's have been gusseted also. The steering is made up of 7/8ths heim joints and 1.5 inch .25 wall dom tubing. All of the steering mounting points are mounted double sheer. The rear axle is a ford 8.8 with disc brakes. Suspension: The front suspension is a custom marsfab offroad long arm set up with Barnes4wd Enduro joints. The front also has Fox 2.0 remote reservoir shocks and fox 2.0 4" travel air bump stops. To round out the front suspension there is also custom torsional sway bar. In the rear the jeeps got leaf springs mounted with Liquid Iron Industries slider boxes in place of the factory shackles. The rear also has Fox 2.0 remote reservoir shocks. All the shocks have been custom valved and tuned by Carolina Truggies. Chassis: This jeep has a one off custom roll cage. The cage ties into the unibody front to rear to really stiffen the body of the jeep. The cage also passes through the firewall and attaches to shock and bump mount area to stiffen the front end up. There are custom built chassis stiffeners on the bottom side of the jeep also. The interior has been completely stripped from the jeep. Now the inside contains Hunsaker Racing suspension seats mounted into the cage. Its got Racequip 5 point harnesses. There is a custom built aluminum gauge pod. Its also got a Whelen siren inplace of the horn. Really helps when your trying to pass other competitors. Its got a quick release steering too. Misc: Jeeps got bladder style 32 gallon fuel cell. To meet the rules for most race series all fluids have been run to custom built catch cans. The jeeps got a 8000# winch mounted to custom prerunner style bumper. Its got hid off road lights up front. Tow points front and rear. Custom mounted spare tire and high lift jack. First aid kit and fire extinguishers. 33x12.50x15 general grabber red label tires. The list goes on and on. Im sure I am forgetting some things. All in all this is a great race rig or weekend warrior. You could not buy all the parts on it for the buy it now price let alone all the materials and labor in fab time. My loss is your gain. |

Hybrid and Electric Jeeps, Fiats, and Alfa Romeos to be built in Poland
Sun, Jan 3 2021WARSAW - Fiat Chrysler will invest more than $200 million in its plant in Tychy in Poland, where new hybrid and electric Jeep, Fiat and Alfa Romeo models will be built, Deputy Prime Minister Jaroslaw Gowin said on Tuesday. The investment comes as a boost to emerging Europe's largest economy, which is hoping a switch to electric vehicles can help its auto sector catch up with regional rivals including the Czech Republic and Slovakia. "Modern, hybrid and electric cars of the Jeep, Fiat and Alfa Romeo brands will start to leave the factory in Tychy in 2022," Gowin wrote on Twitter. Gowin said there could be further investment in the plant in future but gave no details. Fiat Chrysler, which is planning a $38 billion merger with French rival PSA to create the world's No.4 carmaker, said in a statement that early preparations for the expansion and modernization of the plant started in late 2020. The plant in Poland's industrial southern region of Silesia is one of the company's largest and currently employs around 2,500 people. Fiat Chrysler confirmed that new hybrid and electric Jeep, Fiat and Alfa Romeo models would be built in Tychy. It said the aim was to start mass production of the first of the three new passenger car models for the group's brands in the second half of 2022. Under a 2018-2022 plan, FCA pledged to invest 9 billion euros in electrification as part of investment plans totaling 45 billion euros.

Federal investigations about safety of rear-mounted gas tanks is nothing new
Sun, 09 Jun 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Chrysler are currently making waves in our daily news feeds due to a disagreement over the safety of a few million Jeep Liberty and Grand Cherokee models. Specifically, NHTSA has asked Chrysler to recall the SUVs because of the location of their fuel tanks, but you may be interested to know that requests such as this are nothing new.
Besides the two Jeep models, NHTSA has launched investigations over the years in such models as the Ford Crown Victoria (and its police-car counterpart), GM pickups built between 1972 and 1987, and rather famously the Ford Pinto.
Understanding how automakers and NHTSA have dealt with fuel-tank-safety concerns in the past may offer a better understanding of how Chrysler and the government agency will settle their current dispute. Check out the complete article from The Detroit News here.
