Up for bids is a 1979 Jeep Cherokee Chief Sport. It has the original AMC 360 V8 with a 2 barrel carb. This thing runs great with no engine noise or smoke and starts everytime. It is obvious that it has been rebuilt at some point but not sure when. The transmission shifts good with no issues and the 4 wheel drive works good in all ranges. It is all time 4 wheel drive with the quadra trac selector in the glove box and a lever under the seat to lock it into low range. It has dana 44 diferentials front and rear and they are both in good shape. It has had new u-joints installed in the rear driveshaft. I have the new ones for the front driveshaft but just never put them in because there still tight. It has had a new u-joint installed in the front right axle as well as new bearings. The frame is in good shape with only surface rust, no rot or holes. As far as the body goes the outside is in decent shape but around the back wheel wells the inner and outer panels have rusted apart and someone has sprayed foam from the inside to seal it up. I guess it works but if your wanting to restore it the foam will need to be removed and the metal welded back. The window in the tailgate works(although someone wired up new switches for it) but the tailgate hinge on the passenger side has came loose. It will still open and close you just have to play with it a little bit. The tires are 31x10.5 and in good shape with right around half tread and they are all wore evenly. This jeep is by no means a show car but you can jump in it and drive it wherever you want to (on or off road). If you have any questions on something I may have forgot to mention feel free to ask. If you have little or no feedback contact me before bidding or your bid will be cancelled. Thanks for looking and good luck

2014 Jeep Patriot and Compass ditch CVT for six-speed auto
Mon, 07 Jan 2013It was reported in Automotive News a few months ago, but a new report on Allpar.com adds some details to news that the 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot will get a six-speed automatic to replace the CVTs they currently use. According to a tip provided to Allpar, the 2014 models will begin production in March and be on sale sometime in the summer. The Jatco-sourced CVT in use until now - Jatco is owned by Nissan and Mitsubishi - has been often criticized, and many won't be sad to see it go.
The incoming six-speed automatic is said to be an all-wheel-drive cog-swapper that's the work of Hyundai and Magna and has been paired with the DynaMax AWD system used in the Hyundai ix35 and Kia Sportage. It won't be the only Chrysler product using a transmission with ties to Hyundai: the six-speed automatic in the Dodge Dart comes from Powertech, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hyundai. With the Patriot and Compass said to be driving down the trail for the last time this year, it will be a short run for the new tranny and the rumored addition of a backup camera and power rear liftgate on the Compass.
2014 Jeep Cherokee: Introduction
Tue, 27 May 2014When we look back at some of the more shocking product launches of recent yeras, the Jeep Cherokee is certainly high up on the list. And we aren't just talking about its off-the-wall, polarizing design.
For starters, it brought back the iconic Cherokee nameplate - something Jeep enthusiasts have coveted for ages. But beyond that, it brought a new evolution for the Jeep brand. After all, the Cherokee is car-based - using the same compact platform that underpins the Dodge Dart and Chrysler 200. It has a greater focus on technology and refinement than ever before, in an effort to appeal to a new crop of Jeep customers. And powering it all is a new (optional) V6 engine paired with an equally new nine-speed automatic transmission.
Can the Cherokee's car-based roots still allow for a vehicle that's superb when the going gets tough? Will its design still be a love/hate affair in one year's time, or will it start to blend in? Is the powertrain strong enough to not only support the needs of daily driving and road trips, but blaze a few trails as well? We're aiming to answer all these questions, and more, over the next 12 months. Welcome to the Autoblog long-term garage, Cherokee.
