1977 Dodge W200 4x4 3/4 ton.

See a short video at my youtube channel youtube.com/watch?v=TQ11xxgH3yE or search DodgeM887.

The Good:

Dana 44 in front with disc brakes, Dana Spicer 60 in rear with drums.

318 v8, Automatic.

4wd is all time has low loc, low, neutral, high, high loc. When in neutral the truck will not move. It has to be in high or low. It is a nice system like some jeeps have.

Ex-military M887 (tool truck) then it was a Missouri Fire truck. Now it has a flat bed that I put on.

32,700 original miles. Not rolled over odometer.

It has extra springs in the back so it is more like a 1 ton.

Was a western truck so no rust rot anywhere. Solid floors, rockers, cab, doors, ect. Fresh resto and repaint over this winter. It is now a charcoal gray metallic with Flat black flat bed, grill, wheels, bumpers. Bed liner on floor, bumpers, wheels, and flatbed frame.

Interior is black. No dash cracks. Has government plate still on dash.

New head gaskets, intake gaskets, valve seals on rebuilt heads. Valve guides are good, no smoke.

Reman 2bbl. carb. (older)

New brake pads, shoes, lines, master cylinder, front calipers.

New coil and cap and rotor.

No air, no smog stuff, manual steering. That is the way the US Gov. ordered it. You can buy the power steering stuff at a junk yard or new if some one wanted to convert it to power steering. I never needed it. I turns easy enough without power. Less to break down. You can easily upgrade to power steering in one afternoon and a few parts and a little money.

Factory plastic gas tank so it won't rust out.

Runs great, drives great, for what it is. It starts right up. It is not a 2005 so don't think that it is going to run and ride like a modern truck. It is a heavy duty work truck and it is 36 years old so that means stiff ride, loose steering, road noise. Anyone who has driven a classic knows this comes with the territory. But it also means cheap to repair like $20 calipers, $40 rotors, $80 alternator....and no $350 fuel pump or $250 hub bearings and you can do it yourself in a matter of minutes to hours. Heck you could swap the whole engine and trans yourself in one day. It also has in my opinion better axles. These Dodge truck are about the same parts from 1973 to about 1993 when they changed styles so parts interchange.

Has wide 16.5 steel wagon wheels. It has 33x12.5 tires. Comes with an extra set of the original narrower steel wheels (olive green) and military tires.

Looks great. Hard to find one of these trucks without total rust rot everywhere.

The Bad:

It does have a trans leak at the pan or maybe the seal where the shift lever goes in. It shifts and drives no problem and it will not affect the function of the transmission ever. It is not a expensive fix, you don't even have to fix it. The fluid is not burned.

The dash light is out.

The speedo bounces as the cable gets full of crud over time. I am soaking it in PB blaster which often fixes that. If not then you can ignore it or buy a new cable. The speed is also off a bit as the tires are larger than stock.

Other stuff:

It sat around my house for 6 years and was only driven on the property or on short trips into town, like less then 10 miles. It was never used at all some years. That is why I want to sell it, I am not using it and have too much stuff. It always started up and like I said above I replaced some parts. It could use at least a 1 inch body or susp. lift.

I am selling it as-is so if you live 3 hours away, I think you should trailer it going that far. Not because there is anything mechanically wrong, just incase something stupid like a radiator hose blows, or alternator quits or whatever. A cheap, quick easy fix near home turns into a pain 3 hours away and makes you unhappy with me. I don't want that! Trailer it unless you don't want to that is up to you. If you live local, feel free to drive it home. It will be better than the other 200K mile 90's 4x4 rust bombs out there for this price!

It is a great sold truck.

Buyer to deposit $500 within 48 hours. Buyer to make full payment within 7 days. Buyer to pick up vehicle and Title.

Chrysler readying 20 Moparized vehicles for SEMA

Tue, 08 Oct 2013

The Las Vegas Convention Center has plenty of space for aftermarket companies and automakers to show off their wares, and it looks like Chrysler is taking advantage of the spacious floor plan. At next month's SEMA Show, Chrysler will have a full 20 cars from its six brands decked out with Mopar gear.
As a hint of what is to come, Chrysler released a handful of teaser sketches showing glimpses of modified Jeep Cherokee, Ram 1500, Fiat 500L and Chrysler 300 concept vehicles. The automaker will also use the venue to show off a new line of Jeep Performance Parts offered by the all-new Mopar Off-Road Division. In addition to the images, Chrysler also issued a brief press release - posted below - breaking down some of the "industry-first features" that Mopar has offered in recent years.

Chrysler recalling 700k minivans and Dodge Journey for ignition switch woes

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

General Motors isn't the only automaker with ignition switch problems. Chrysler is fighting it too and is now announcing a recall of 695,957 examples worldwide of the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans from the 2008-2010 model years, plus the 2009-2010 Dodge Journey.
According to a statement from Chrysler, the models have a bad wireless ignition node detent ring in the ignition switch, making it possible for drivers to appear to have the key in the "Run" position but for the spring not to fully engage. It can then slip back to the "Accessory" position and shut the car off. If this happens, the vehicle loses power steering, brake boost and the airbags.
There is some disparity about the number of vehicles affected under this recall. In its statement, Chrysler claims that it covers 525,206 vehicles in the US, 102,892 in Canada, 25,591 in Mexico and 42,268 elsewhere. However, the recall announcement posted by The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration lists an estimated 438,109 vehicles in the US. Chrysler spokesperson Nick Cappa told Autoblog via email that the reasoning for the different figures "will become clear at a later date."

2013 Dodge Charger AWD Sport

Tue, 29 Jan 2013

We won't beat around the bush: The all-wheel-drive Dodge Charger is not a brand new car. This generation launched in 2011, AWD models and all. But for 2013, Chrysler has added an optional sport package to the AWD model, available with both the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 or the sweet, sweet 5.7-liter Hemi V8. The upgrades for this new sport pack are mainly cosmetic; a gloss black grille, new 19-inch alloy wheels and body-colored rear spoiler make up the list of exterior changes. Inside, there are new sport seats and paddle shifters, and the eight-speed automatic transmission has been reflashed for better performance.
But because vehicles like the Dodge Charger mainly stick out in our minds as being rear-drive bruisers, Chrysler wanted to give us the opportunity to test out the LX platform's foul-weather prowess. And perhaps no place more appropriate to test such a system was way up in Michigan's Upper Peninsula in the dead of winter.
