All the Lights function as they should, wipers work/washer works, horn, radio, all Gage's accept the speedo work (Tcase needs a speedo and true mileage unknown) the heat worked fine and the blower worked as it should however, the previous owner bypassed the heater when replacing a broken coolant line. Everything else works great. This is a 38 year old highly modified jeep it IS driven daily weather permitting however it ISN'T a highway machine by any means! It's a used jeep built for off-road and it has been used as such...it is far from mint! Now the fun stuff....

Please remember this isn't a show vehicle nor is it in mint condition it's 38 years old and been wheeled plenty! It's been well built and runs well it should go to someone who isn't afraid of turning wrenches and or getting muddy!
I'm sure there is more I'm forgetting. The frame is in excellent shape with zero rust or rot. The tub is in good shape with some minor surface rust. The front fenders have some small rust spots. This is not a rust bucket again it spent most of its life out west. The paint is far from perfect and there are many small dings and dents...please look carefully at all the pictures if you have any doubts. This jeep has been to Moab many times and has wheeled a few local spots here in North Carolina as well. I'm looking to build another TJ or LJ...I'm a jeep guy and I've had them all! I may be interested in a trade as well for a TJ or LJ. I've shipped vehicles before it's not difficult and I'd be happy to work with your shipper to make things easy (shipping is on your dime) Please check my feedback I've sold more than a few vehicles to happy buyers. I've listed this to the best of my ability and the jeep is sold as is with no warranties expressed nor implied. Please don't waste my time eBay isn't a game!

Chrysler resolves recall issue with NHTSA, will inspect, upgrade affected Jeeps
Tue, 18 Jun 2013Chrysler made big news earlier in the month by refusing a recall request from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for the 1993-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee and 2002-2007 Jeep Liberty. Last week, NHTSA boss David Strickland countered by defending his agency's request for the recall of 2.7 million Jeep SUVs. Today marked the deadline for Chrysler to formally respond to NHTSA, and it seems that both parties have met in the middle with Chrysler inspecting and upgrading some of the affected vehicles without using the word "recall," which would constitute the admission of a defect; instead, Chrysler said that it is conducting a "voluntary campaign."
At issue on these vehicles is the positioning of the fuel tank behind the rear axle that could get damaged during a rear-end collision. NHTSA has stated that at least 51 people have been killed in rear-end collisions involving these Jeeps after the vehicles caught fire, to which Chrysler countered by pointing out that both models "met and exceeded" the requirements for fuel-system integrity.
As a compromise on the situation, Chrysler says that it will inspect all pre-2004 Grand Cherokees and pre-2007 Liberty models and, "if necessary, provide an upgrade to the rear structure of the vehicle." According to Automotive News, this upgrade will consist of adding a trailer hitch that will presumably better protect the rear-mounted gas tank. Vehicles already equipped with a factory or Mopar hitch will not be modified. Chrysler's official statement on the matter is posted below, but no additional information has been released, such as when the campaign will begin and how many vehicles could be affected.
NHTSA still mulling crash tests for recalled Jeeps
Thu, 15 Aug 2013Well, no one should ever accuse the government of not giving things plenty of thought. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is still debating whether it will retest any of the 1.56 million 1992 to 1998 Grand Cherokees and 2002 to 2007 Libertys that were part of a recall regarding fires after rear-end collisions. And yes, this debate has been going on for over a month. In other news...
The recall dustup started in early June, when Chrysler took the unusual position of refusing a recall request from NHTSA regarding placement of the fuel tank on the effected vehicles. NHTSA said a collision could cause a fire, a position Chrysler took issue with. Extensive negotiations ensued, with Chrysler agreeing to fit certain Jeeps with trailer hitches, which it said would provide some protection to fuel tanks mounted behind the rear axle in the event of a collision.
Part of the issue rests with the amount of data that needs to be processed, according to The Detroit News. NHTSA administrator David Strickland said during a Washington Auto Press Association meeting, "There's a lot of data and Chrysler is being very cooperative in giving us more data." Until that information has been sorted, it looks like re-testing will still be up for debate.
2014 Jeep Cherokee configurator up and running
Fri, 09 Aug 2013Production delays aside, Jeep is steaming towards its September on-sale date for the 2014 Cherokee. The reborn midsizer's configurator has just gone live, meaning you can fiddle with different options, colors and trim levels to your heart's content.
The cheapest model available is the 4X2 Sport, which starts at a reasonable $22,995. On the high end, the Cherokee's builder allowed us to indulge our passion for ludicrously priced vehicles by outfitting the top-end Trailhawk, which already starts at $29,495, with $8,610 in options. The resulting car, which you can see above, would retail for $39,100 after the $995 destination is factored in.
Head on over to Jeep's build-it-yourself website and have a look around.
