1970 Jeep Cj5 on 2040-cars
Brimfield, Massachusetts, United States
This is a rare 1970 Jeep CJ5 built by Kaiser Motors in Toledo Ohio, it has the original Buick Dauntless 225 CID V6. This is a project I started but I have found myself out of work and I need to sell it. It has a Warner T-86AA 3 speed transmission, Dana Spicer 44 rear axle, Dana 27 front axle, Spicer 18 transfer case all of which work perfect, it has 34" tires with a spare included. The tub has been all rebuilt with new steel, undercoated with no rust, runs and drives as it should, and has a working 4 way plow. Many new parts drivers side floor, passenger side floor, rear cargo area floor, and frame supports, new gas tank sending unit and gas gauge, master cylinder all 4 wheel cylinders all new brake lines, new speedometer cable will need a new speedometer, new fuel pump and fuel line, new water pump and hoses, new voltage regulator, new directional switch, new tail and back up lights, and a new heater core. The lights all work, the wipers work, the horn works, the heat works, but it will need a radio. It has a clean Massachusetts title, and will need fenders and an exhaust Y pipe. It comes with a 4 way plow, a hard top with steel doors with roll up windows, and a set of headers if you wish to install them. To finish it up a new Y pipe, speedometer, and fenders will be required, then paint. This is rare and is a beast, I have 3400 dollars invested in parts, my reserve is set at 3000, thanks for looking. It will also come with a bunch of spare parts, and a Chilton repair manual.

Jeep reveals annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari concepts
Wed, 20 Mar 2013Jeep has unveiled its annual spate of concepts before the Easter Jeep Safari. Those start with the Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Concept (below left), complete with the company's EcoDiesel V6 engine. Designers threw in a set of 35-inch Mickey Thompson tires wrapped around 17-inch Rubicon wheels, and a set of custom fender flares help keep all that rubber under wraps.
Meanwhile, the Wrangler Mopar Recon (below right) packs a 6.4-liter Hemi V8 good for 470 horsepower. All that grunt gets to the ground via a five-speed automatic transmission and a set of a Dana 60 axles frond and rear with 4.10 gears. The Recon also makes use of a 4.5-inch prototype long-arm kit and a set of prototype eight-lug bead lock wheels.
The Wrangler Stitch (below left) builds on the momentum of the Wrangler Pork Chop Concept. Engineers once again set out to strike as much weight as possible from the vehicle, and actually managed to trim the curb weight down to 3,000 pounds. That effort has given the machine the same power to weight ratio as the Grand Cherokee SRT8. Plenty of carbon fiber, door deletes and a chrome moly roll cage all help trim those pounds, and a set of DanyTrac Pro Rock 44 axles with 4.88 gears and ARB lockers front and rear let this machine scramble over whatever is in its path.
Jeep Grand Cherokee in headliner fire probe
Fri, 23 Aug 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching an investigation into 146,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs from the 2012 model year, The Detroit News reports. This comes as the result of the government safety agency receiving three complaints from owners who cited fires inside the Jeep's cabin.
According to the report, NHTSA says:
"The customers reported a burning odor and visible smoke coming from the headliner while the vehicle was being driven. This was followed by flames from the headliner itself. Customers lowered the windows in an effort to clear the smoke but this increased the fire's intensity. All three vehicles had to be extinguished with a fire extinguisher or by the fire department as they continued to burn after the vehicle was turned off."
