Please contact me at : pagepssmelley@x5g.com .
This is a just completed restoration of a 1981 Jeep CJ7 Renegade that was a Levi edition. This was not a frame off
because there was no need. The frame is all in perfect condition, as you can see from the "before" pictures this
body was super straight with no rust anywhere. I only skim coated the rear body to take out all of the rivets
typically found on a Jeep. Now its nice and smooth and flawless. The original 304 engine was freshened up and a
mild cam installed, quadrajet carb, 4 speed transmission was gone through, as well as the transfer case. This Jeep
was only a 2 owner Jeep prior to me, the last owner had it since 1990 and only used it to go fishing, it never saw
snow, rain or mud. It was originally bought in Wiley Texas. This jeep has a beautiful Daytona Pearl Gray paint job
with 3 coats of clear, simply beautiful paint job. Brand new custom Marine grade seats front and rear, brand new
Sony stereo mounted in a locked center console and new speakers. Brand new brakes all the way around, brand new
Billistein shocks, brand new polished aluminum front and rear Outlaw Differential Covers, brand new Flowmaster true
dual exhaust, brand new Hedman Headers, brand new chrome exhaust tips, everything welded nothing bolted on and this
thing sounds sweet and mufflers are not even broke in yet. Brand new metal dash and dash board. Brand new BF
Goodrich Mud Terrain Tires 33 x 12.50. Brand new spare tire and wheel. The original wheels have been polished to a
deep shine. Brand new rear one piece axle with posi. Brand new 4 x 4 locking hubs. Custom installed recessed LED
tail lights, all other lights work as they should. It has a tilt steering wheel. Brand new fender flares. This is
an exceptional Jeep, It is in Texas now, but will soon be going back home to Colorado. I am finishing a project at
Ft Hood in Killeen Texas and will be moving back in 10 days, if it comes back with me I am keeping it. New bikini
top, no other top or doors come with the Jeep. Well over $20,000 invested in this head turner. I have too many toys
but I will make room if need be. Please note this is a 1981 not a 2001, sorry for the confusion.

2016 Jeep Wrangler to ditch solid axles to save weight?
Tue, 29 Oct 2013Hey, 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.
Jeep recalls 92k Grand Cherokee SUVs over electrical issue
Thu, 07 Nov 2013According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Chrysler is recalling 91,559 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs from the 2014 model year due to some serious electrical issues. All of the affected models were built between January 8 and August 20, 2013.
The NHTSA report states that, "Due to a disruption of computer communications and loose alternator ground wires, the affected vehicles may experience random illumination of multiple instrument cluster warning lights, loss of cluster illumination and loss of anti-lock brake system (ABS) and electronic stability control (ESC) function." The loss of ABS or ESC would greatly reduce a driver's ability to control the vehicle if things get squirrely, and since these failures would not be illuminated on the dashboard display, drivers would not be warned of the issue, increasing the risk of a crash.
The recall is expected to kick off sometime this month. Chrysler will notify affected Jeep owners and dealerships "will update the ABS and instrument cluster module software and tighten the alternator ground wire," according to NHTSA.
