Clean title. Great on or off road. Selling my Custom built  turn key Lifted 1997 Jeep Cherokee XJ . The jeep drives like a Cadillac on the road, and is a tank off road. It has a new used 1 owner Engine with 105k with a bunch of new parts. on body and odometer it reads 205k. 4wd. AUTOMATIC. Cruise Control. Leather seats. Tan exterior, grey & dark grey int. Cold a/c & Warm heat (New heater core installed last winter). This Jeep is good on gas.

*The Engine was installed 3/31/13 (when installed it had 98k), it runs great, turn key. if properly maintained it should go past 300k.
The Engine got all new gaskets, plugs, wires, water pump, etc. All Premium grade no cheap stuff.

* More than $6-7k has been spent on this Jeep to make it look and drive strong, I am selling as is, but after all the work I have done to it now, it should last you a long time. Very capable. This Jeep is rust free on frame and body.

*Just rebuilt the front axle & new fuel pump. starts at first turn and better response.

 

I painted the Jeep with Plasti-Dip, this can peel off, the color is green, the hood and roof are faded, the rest of the body is good, few branch scrapes here and there, and the back bumper was bent passenger side, small dent.

 


 

This is a southern Jeep, It has no rust, it's been in NY give or take 3 years.

NY Inspection Done 4/13/13 good for a Year

The bad but not really bad: the Jeep could use are new shocks(Bilsteins 5100), and the rear drive shaft rebuilt (it has a small click on it but it drives fine), and the steering box is leaking, I would upgrade the steering box (The Durango), and a 1 ton steering bar be installed to make it a better daily driver . You can drive as is. I am always working on it to enhance it, If I install these items myself I will increase the price of the Jeep. As far as little things it needs a horn I was going to upgrade to a train horn. and the front windshield fluid is not working, might be a simple or cheap fix and rear wiper not working could be a loose connection or cheap fix The drivers side seat needs to be connected it is the only electric seat, I have the wires (If you are tall it is fine, if you short that will need to be addressed). I upgraded seats to leather (the drivers side has the common jeep tear) I know some guys think this is priced a bit high, but this jeep is ready to go to California & Back, a few trail rides, and some good old fashion wheelin.

Jeep leads list of 25 most patriotic brands

Thu, 04 Jul 2013

It's not unusual to feel extra patriotic this time of year, what with the Fourth of July being today and all. As if to celebrate, New York-based research firm Brand Keys conducted a study among 4,500 consumers about what brands they find to be the most patriotic. According to the Detroit Free Press, Jeep took top honors in this study, besting other American stalwart brands including Coca-Cola, Levi's and Hershey's.
Interestingly, the only other automotive brand to make the list was Ford, in the 16th spot (motorcycle fans take note - Harley-Davidson claimed the No. 13 slot). This means consumers found Jeep to be more patriotic than any of the brands in the General Motors portfolio, including Chevrolet, which has long used American themes in its advertising over the decades.
According to Brand Keys, Jeep came in "with a score of 98 out of 100 on a scale representing consumers' emotional engagement expectations," the Detroit Free Press reports. Be sure to read the report to scan the entire Top 25 list for yourself.

Jeep Cherokee finally dealer-bound

Tue, 22 Oct 2013

We had our First Drive of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee last month, but it appears that prospective buyers won't have too much longer to finally get time behind the wheel of the new small Jeep.
Automotive News is reporting that after a two-month delay, Jeep dealers will finally start receiving their first shipments of the new Cherokee, in the next 10 days. A Chrysler spokesperson confirmed to Autoblog that the Cherokee is indeed on its way to Jeep dealers.
According to AN, about 23,000 Cherokees have been built since production commenced back in June, but potential powertrain issues forced Jeep to make adjustments to the Cherokee along the way. Automotive News says that in order to make sure there are no issues with the Cherokee before it reaches customers, it is testing each vehicle after it rolls off the assembly line at a rented test track near the vehicle's Toledo North Assembly Plant.

AEV Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon

Fri, 28 Feb 2014


After their rented 2007 Hummer H3 failed them during the brutal Rallye Aicha des Gazelles in Morocco, Amy Lerner and her sister Tricia Reina were on a quest to find the most capable production off-roader for their next competition - they chose a 2012 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon. Their next mission was to find a company with the competence to configure it to win. After poring over Internet forums and perusing countless magazines for an outfitter who could meet their demanding requirements, they sent their bright orange JK ("Crush" is the official color) to American Expedition Vehicles (AEV) for some modifications.
The Michigan-based team at AEV kept the Jeep's 3.6-liter V6 and automatic transmission stock, but replaced the hood with a tall AEV Heat Reduction Hood and added an AEV Snorkel Kit for water crossings (it serves double-duty as its raised height helps to keep the air intake out of the kicked-up dust on the trail). Front and rear off-road bumpers were bolted in place, and AEV skid plates were added to provide additional undercarriage protection. A pair of IPF-900 off-road lights improve visibility, while a 10.2-gallon AEV Fuel Caddy (located behind the exterior spare) added some range. The suspension was upgraded with a 3.5-inch lift kit with Bilstein remote reservoir shocks, and 35-inch Falken Wildpeak A/T tires (LT285/70R17) were mounted at all four corners on AEV's beadlock wheels.
