1984 Jeep CJ7 Laredo This 3 owner 1984 Jeep CJ7 Laredo is a beautiful classic and original rust free California Jeep. It spent the last 20 years in the desert of California before I brought it back with me to Colorado in February. The engine is incredible and has so much power that I can easily travel 70mph driving over the mountain passes here in Colorado comfortably. The custom Rear Dana 60 Differential can withstand the power of the V8 all day long! It is also set up to perfectly to conquer the most difficult terrain possible. This CJ7 Laredo is ready to be driven daily, on the weekends or in the mountains and I wouldn't be afraid to drive this Jeep anywhere. Aftermarket Upgrades completed at 100k and cost over $20k: * rebuilt1990 Chevy 350 TBI 350v8 *rebuilt 700R4 Automatic Transmission with Rachet shifter *Electric Fuel Pump *Custom Build Rear differential Dana 60 with 35 spline chromoly Axel shafts, 4.11 gears and an ARB air Locker *Front Dana 30 Differential with chromoly shafts, 4.11 gears and an ARB Air Locker *35" BFG Mud Terrain Tires with approx half tread *4wp Front Reverse Shackles and 4" Rear suspension *Custom Driveshafts front and rear *Aftermarket Front Seats *Bed Liner on the inside of the tub *Full Front Roll Cage with new grab handles *Custom Rack for the back included (holds a snowboard, cooler or whatever you need to haul - has hitch too) *Power Steering Brace *Tuffy Center Console with Sony Detachable CD player *Aftermarket heavy duty 20 Gallon Fuel Tank *Custom Rock rails under the doors *Bestop Sunrider soft top with all hardware and clear windows Engine: Rebuilt 1990 Chevrolet 350 5.7L V8 with Throttle Body Injection. The Jeep runs incredible, sounds fantastic and it doesn't matter if it is cold or hot outside it fires right up thanks to it being fuel injected. It runs great, is super peppy and doesn't leak any fluids. I recently upgraded the radiator with a new Aluminum unit and relocated the overflow radiator tank closer to it since there is no longer a starter solenoid on the passenger fender. I also replaced the spark plugs last week. Transmission/Transfer Case: 700R4 Automatic Transmission with overdrive is excellent. It shifts great, without play, grinding, slipping or crunching. It has a rachet shifter on it that makes shifting super easy. The transfer case is a Dana 300 and has a small drip. It easily goes into gear high and low range 4wheel drive. Drivetrain/suspension: The Jeep drives excellent with the lift. The front suspension is a reverse shackle conversion that makes driving enjoyable especially with a lifted Jeep. The sway bar has disconnects which is great for off road driving. Each leaf spring has U bolt skid plates so you will never have to worry about breaking a u bolt. The drivetrain is perfectly set up with ARB Air locking differentials, 4.11 gears and chromoly shafts and heavy duty ujoints. The power steering is super sensitive and drives like a Jeep but seems to drive easy to me. The power brake booster needs replacement. The brakes work ok but don't have much boost at startup however after it is driven and warmed up it is much better. I have driven this Jeep 600 miles without issues. Interior Controls/Switches: Everything in the interior works great except the factory tach and intermittently the windshield wipers. Sometimes I'm noticing on the speedometer the ebrake light appearing at startup then goes away after driving a bit. There is an aftermarket tach on the steering column that works great. The sony CD player/radio is in the center console. There are front dash speakers and rear 6x9s by the roll bar. The Tuffy console adds security however I do not have the key for it. The fuel, speedometer, heater odometer, blinkers, horn, lights etc all work as well. Paint/Body/Rust: The paint is the original Black and original Laredo Striping. The paint is beautiful and very reflective, shiny and lots of luster but still 30 years old and has minor blemishes. The hood has some small dings, a line crease from where it was rested on the windshield frame at one point. The rear fender flares are a custom fit and from a Jeep Wrangler YJ. The Jeep is rust free except for some minor surface rust spots on the windshield frame hinges etc. It also has some rock chips on the windshield frame. The frame is rust free and has never been repaired. Behind the passenger rear flare there is some cracking, it is hard to tell if it was body work at one point or if from flexing the body off road but I am unsure exactly. Interior: The interior is nice, the front captains chairs are aftermarket black vinyl. They are only a couple months old and in excellent condition. There is no rear seat or carpet. The inside of the tub has been bed lined. The dash pad is very clean and I do not have a rear seat however one can easily be added if you chose to want one. You can get one to match the front seats too. Soft Top/Doors: The black Bestop Sunrider soft top is in excellent condition and was purchased 4 months ago. The sunrider is unique in that you can open the front area like a sunroof without removing the entire top. The original doors do not have any rust, the windows roll up and down very easily. Unfortunately I do not have a key for the doors. The wing windows open and close with ease and the seal tight. The doors interior panels are great, both door have a few scratches, sand chips and the drivers side has a little defect pushed in (view all pictures). Overall: This is a beautiful Jeep and ready to go and a classic that is turn key and ready to go. It would make the perfect weekend warrior, beach runner or mountain adventurer. The CJ7 is used and 30 years old, it may have blemishes, scratches, nicks etc that I didn't capture on my camera. Overall the condition is beautiful! I do my best to illustrate the condition, I may have missed something so be sure to ask all questions you have prior to bidding or winning the Jeep. The Jeep is being sold as is, where is, without warranty or guarantees. I am not required for your state emission or safety inspections including Colorado. Shipping: If you are out of state and need to have this Jeep shipped, call M&E Auto Transport #606-354-3643. Michael is great to work with and offers competitive pricing, quick pickup and delivery. He helped me ship this Jeep back to Colorado from California in February. Conclusion: A $500 non refundable deposit is due within 24 hours of the conclusion of the auction via paypal.

Jeep Cherokee faces on-sale delay
Sat, 23 Mar 2013A report in The Wall Street Journal looks at some of the obstacles to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee that go beyond its mootable yet "very contemporary" looks, almost all of them based on Fiat's financial position. Starting with that sheetmetal, in defense of it SRT president Ralph Gilles and Jeep design head Mark Allen said they wanted to "make sure the design still looks modern five years from now."
The WSJ piece doesn't cite longevity as a factor, instead saying that its features originated in a design for an Alfa Romeo, the transformation into a Jeep design meant allowing Chrysler get it to market more quickly and save "hundreds of millions of dollars" in engineering.
The need for Fiat to save money while it weathers the European situation has cut budgets for development, engineering and the pace of retooling the Toledo, Ohio plant to build the Cherokee. In a familiar case of snowballing at work, among the effects will be pushing back the Cherokee's volume sales date and delaying updates to some of Chrysler's other products.
FCA plotting larger Jeep Renegade, Fiat 500XL
Mon, Mar 23 2015The joint development of the new Jeep Renegade and Fiat 500X goes to show what the combined efforts of the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles group can yield. But don't expect the Italian-American automaker to stop there. According to Autocar, the company is planning to base another pair of larger SUVs on the same platform. The Jeep version would take the place of the previous Compass and Patriot, slotting in between the Renegade and Cherokee. Meanwhile, the Fiat version would further bolster the Cinquecento lineup to sit alongside the 500 hatchback, 500L minivan and 500X crossover. Details remain few and far between at the moment, but they wouldn't be the extent of the growth plans for either brand. Jeep is reportedly zeroing in on a decision on the long-rumored sub-Renegade model, while also preparing to expand up-market with the return of the Grand Wagoneer. Fiat is reportedly abandoning the prospect of offering a full model line as it once did. While the 500 range will continue to form a vital part of the brand's business, it's also tipped to be going after the no-frills, bare-bones market dominated by Renault's Dacia brand. To that end, it would seek to build upon the Panda by offering a larger, but still low-cost hatchback to rival the Ford Focus and VW Golf, and succeed the discontinued Fiat Bravo, but based on the 500L's platform and built in Turkey to keep costs down. This second pillar of the Fiat brand wouldn't likely be offered in the US, however, where we'd expect the 500 line to continue representing the Italian automaker. Related Video:
Chrysler recalling 31k SUVs and vans
Fri, 06 Jun 2014Chrysler is issuing recalls covering roughly 31,700 vehicles worldwide due to two separate problems. In both cases the company believes that most of the affected vehicles are either still on, or in transit to, dealer lots.
One recall covers roughly 10,700 Dodge Durango, Jeep Cherokee, Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee SRT models from the 2014 model year built between January 16 and April 17, 2014. The SUVs need a software update for the cruise control. It's possible that when the cruise is on and the driver presses on the throttle, the acceleration could last a second after the pedal is released or two seconds for the SRT. Afterward, they return to the speed originally set by the driver.
Chrysler says it isn't aware of any accidents, injuries or even reported incidents of this happening in the real world. Also, in all cases, if the driver presses on the brake, the cruise shuts off. The automaker believes that there are about 6,100 affected SUVs in the US, 950 in Canada, 425 in Mexico and 3,200 outside of North America. The software upgrade will be ready shortly, the company says.
