1998 Xj Jeep Rock Crawler Trail Rig Daily Driver Cherokee 2 Door $13k Invested on 2040-cars
Clarksville, Iowa, United States
|
This is a HIGHLY modified professionally built 2 door XJ Cherokee. This jeep has been on trails in Colorado, Minnesota, and many other advanced trail systems and will run right with the $25,000 buggys. It only has 154,000 original miles and runs like new. It has the bullet proof 4.0 inline six and the auto transmission and the best transfer case Jeep has, the NP231 with a SYE (slip yoke eliminator) kit.
This also comes with a brand new ON Board air system from Viair!!
This jeep was built by a professional 4x4 shop. It has everything you need to do whatever you want. When someone asks, "where do you drive this thing", you simply answer, "anywhere I want".This unit is being offered for much, much less than you can even BEGIN to build one. I have a list of original receipts from the professional 4x4 shop that did all the work, and it totals around $10,000!! (that's not even buying a good solid 2 door XJ which is a tough find in itself. I am selling this Jeep to purchase a small cabin that my whole family can enjoy. I just replaced the complete ARB pump and wiring yesterday. The old pump quit and the new one came with new wiring. I have pix of me testing it out going up some very steep ditches. I also just replaced the tie rod and drag link including all tie rod ends, with heavy duty replacements from the ZJ. Here's a list of some of the mods: Exterior 35"x12.50 17 BFGoodrich KM2 MT Mud Terrain tires x 5 (In great shape as you can see in the pix) (one wheel has a small dent that doesn't affect performance) Bushwacker Pocket flares ARB Snorkel kit JCR Offroad Winch Bumper JCR Offroad Tire Carrier Rock Krawler rear bumper JCR Offroad Gas Tank Skid Plate Rough Country 9500 winch with wireless remote control!! JCR Offtroad Rock Sliders Paint has trail wounds and scratches and a few dings and small dents. (see pix) It is not a show truck. This Jeep is for the trail... and let me tell you, IT TURNS HEADS GOING DOWN THE ROAD!!! Be ready to talk when you stop...anywhere there are people. :) Door pins are warn (common Jeep thing) Mechanical D30 front axle with a D44 rear (Both have Ruffstuff Differential covers) Disc brakes all the way around! 4.56 gears ARB Air Lockers front and rear Front and Rear CV driveshafts. (Unit comes with replacement driveshafts for trail emergencies) NP 231 Transfer Case with the SYE Kit (slip yoke eliminator) It does have an exhaust leak. Otherwise the exhaust is nice. Flowmaster Suspension A FREAK!!!! This unit has the Rough Country 6.5" Long Arm Suspension Kit with the adjustable control arms. It also has a HD skid plate. 1.75 coil spacers and blocks in the rear bring the total lift to over 8"! 3 link front with an upgraded steering stabilizer, track bar, etc... You won't find a more flexible XJ! It also has quick release front stabilizer pins with storage mounts to hand them out of the way. This makes it easy to switch from the trail to the road. In Colorado you have to drive several miles on the road to get to the next trail system at times. Interior Seats are in great shape with no flaws or stains. No smoking in it. Cruise even works! Air doesn't (who needs air...windows down in a Jeep) Rear carpet has some staining from trail usage (carrying spare driveshafts and jack etc. Has a fully charged fire extinguisher Headliner is like it should be (still up and clean) The carpet has been removed and sprayed with bedliner. The door handle on the drivers side inside needs replaced. ( you can still get in and out) No foul smells. actually smells good! overall this Jeep is a super option for the hardcore Jeep guy or the new to Jeep guy. It is ready to be a daily driver (20MPG on the hwy!), or it would be perfectly happy being a fully dedicated trail rig. Whatever your plan is for it, it will be ready! I have copies of all the receipts that were spent at the 4x4 shop. Over $10,000 worth in parts. You would be crazy to build one. It would cost you double what you can buy this one for. Once again, this is not going to win the local show and shine award, but I will promise you that you won't find a better head turner, and even more importantly, a rig that will go where this one will! I have the auction ending before the 4th of July! Buy it now and have it ready for the weekend!! Call 319-231-8974 or text with questions. The Jeep is located in Waverly, Ia. I will work with shippers, but won't set up the shipping. I collect a $750 deposit within 48 hours of the end of the auction. The Jeep must be paid within 7 days of the auction close or it will be re listed. No games. I'm sure if you have read this far, you can picture yourself riding through the trails in this beauty!!! Or the Hwy!! |

Chrysler recalling over 200k vehicles across its brands
Wed, 10 Apr 2013With more than 200,000 units across six separate recalls and almost all of its brands, it appears that Chrysler has officially jumped headfirst into the recall pool this month. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued three official recalls for the automaker, and The Detroit News is reporting that the automaker itself has announced three more.
The biggest of the recalls applies to about 120,000 Dodge Charger, Dodge Challenger and Chrysler 300 models for 2011 and 2012 due to faulty wiring harnesses for the seat-mounted side airbags, which could lead to these airbags not deploying in the event of a crash. A little more than 60,000 two-wheel-drive versions of the 2007-2008 Dodge Nitro and 2008 Jeep Liberty SUVs are being recalled due to a heat shield that could cause the driveshaft to break, which if that isn't bad on its own, could then hit underneath where the airbag sensor is mounted, causing the airbags to deploy. Wrapping up NHTSA's recall notices, about 20,000 Jeep Patriot and Jeep Compass models for 2012 are also being recalled due to a problem with the fuel tank transfer tube that could lead to the vehicle stalling. The LX car recall campaign is going into effect this month, while the other two will start next month - all three notices are posted below.
In addition to the official NHTSA recalls, The Detroit News is also reporting that Chrysler is recalling more than 16,000 Ram trucks and a small number of Dodge Dart sedans. Around 6,500 2013 Ram 1500 trucks will be recalled due to an improper adjustment of the parking brake cable from the factory, while 7,000 Cummins-powered 2013 Ram Heavy Duty trucks are being recalled due to an engine cover that does not have as much heat resistance as it is supposed to. Finally, a total of 46 Dodge Dart sedans are being recalled due to a problem with the brake calipers and/or parking brake.
Chrysler nets $1.6B income in Q4, Fiat profit up 5%
Wed, 29 Jan 2014Chrysler announced its 2013 financial results today and unveiled its new name and decidedly bank-like logo. Amid the announcement, Chrysler posted big gains in income, while Fiat didn't perform to analysts' expectations.
For 2013, Chrysler had revenue of $72.1 billion, up 10 percent from 2012. Net income reached $2.8 billion, a 65-percent increase. It was the company's third straight year of annual profits.
In terms of unit sales, Chrysler sold 2.4 million cars worldwide in 2013, up 9 percent. According to Automotive News, 1.8 million of those vehicles were sold in the US, a 14-percent increase. The sales growth boosted Chrysler's US market share to 11.4 percent, up 0.2 percent.
Chrysler earns $1.7B in 2012, revises product plans for US
Wed, 30 Jan 2013Hot on the heels of Ford's earnings announcement for the year that was, Chrysler today reported a 2012 net income of $1.7 billion, up substantially from the comparatively minuscule $183 million profit earned in 2011 when it repaid its US government loans.
Chrysler's good year ended with an excellent fourth quarter that saw net income rise 68 percent from $225 million in 2011 to $378 million. Where are all those extra earnings coming from? Market share, which Chrysler saw increase to 11.4% last year on sales of 1.65 million vehicles. In fact, the Auburn Hills, MI-based automaker out-paced the industry's market growth of 13 percent last year with sales up 21 percent for the year.
The company also revealed an updated product plan for its Chrysler Group and Fiat brands that looks all the way out to 2016. It's an updated version of the plan introduced in 2009 shortly after Fiat took control of the American automaker, and includes such new additions as an Alfa Romeo model, likely the 4C, to be introduced in the US this year, as well five more Alfa models by 2016. Likewise, Fiat will be growing by an additional seven models in the coming few years.
