1980 Jeep Cj5 From Southern California. on 2040-cars
Blandon, Pennsylvania, United States
|
All original 1980 Jeep CJ5 including the factory paint. It runs good with no smoke as one would expect with only 64k original, documented miles. I bought this jeep last year and had it shipped from southern California. As everybody knows, vehicles just don't rust out there. This is a very good rust free jeep in original, unmolested shape. Perfect for a show quality restoration project. It has a four cylinder engine with power steering and brakes. I never drove it so I can't speak for the Jeep in that respect. However, all plans were to totally restore it. So I started buying goodies for it. None are installed but all are included with the sale. Brand new, $1000, still in the box Old Man Emu YJ suspension kit. This includes OME shocks, shackles, 4 springs with the fronts being the wider 2.5", brake lines, transfer case spacers, mounting brackets, nuts, bolts and bushings. The YJ suspension gives the CJ a mush better ride. Rebuilt Hummer H1 power steering box. I removed the original steering box from the jeep as I had to hand it in for the core charge. This is an exact replacement but a far superior box for the Jeep with a larger internal piston and variable ratio steering which the Jeep CJ's didn't have from the factory. New parking brake foot assembly. Used hood. The original hood has a fixable dent in it but I already had a good used hood. Both go with the sale. Good running 1985 Mercedes Benz OM617 5 cylinder turbo charged diesel engine. This is a popular engine swap for the Jeep CJ with a lot of following. Front and back wide track axles. The CJ5 only came with the narrow track axles from the factory. These will give the Jeep a bit more stability. Last, I have a used tilt steering column.
A Jeep CJ5 was my high school vehicle and always wanted to have another one since. However; My wife and I have started a new business late last year and it's demonstrating very promising results. We're in need of both time and money as we are already expanding. Needless to say, we also need the space in the barn for the business. With a tear in my eye and a chance to improve our future as well as others, the Jeep has been targeted for dismissal. It wouldn't take much to put this Jeep back on the road. Thank you for looking and questions are welcomed. |

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.
Jeep Cherokee won't get diesel until sales of oil-burning Grand Cherokee improve
Tue, 01 Jul 2014Okay Jeep fans, you want more diesel options? Time to step up and prove it. The only way Jeep will offer a diesel powerplant in the Cherokee, according to brand head Mike Manley, is if sales of the Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel nearly double.
Currently, about eight percent of the Grand Cherokees sold feature the 3.0-liter, EcoDiesel V6. That's simply not enough to warrant the bringing an oil-burning Cherokee to the US market, despite the vehicle's presence in Europe, where it's sold with a 2.8-liter diesel V6.
"Cherokee is slightly different because of its weight and size. When I think about bringing Cherokee diesel here, I would like to see Grand Cherokee diesel get much higher than eight percent," Manley told Automotive News. "It would have to be in mid-double digits."
2014 Easter Jeep Safari kicks off with six concepts
Thu, 10 Apr 2014The 2014 Easter Jeep Safari is set to begin this weekend in Moab, Utah, and while it's sure to be a blast for Jeep enthusiasts from all corners of the world, we're looking forward to the wild, off-road ready concepts that Jeep will be bringing to the red rocks. As you can see in our handy headline, there are six such vehicles in total, each of which sports a variety of tweaks and custom bits.
Unlike in years past, where Jeep graced us with some outrageous concepts like the Mighty FC or J-12, this year's vehicles are a bit more restrained and a bit more buildable by enthusiasts. That's not by accident, officials tell us. They wanted to put this year's focus on attainable vehicles and accessories from Mopar and Jeep Performance Parts that existing owners can use to augment their own vehicles. So let's get to it.
We'll start with the Wranglers first. There are three concepts of the jeepiest of Jeep coming to Moab - the Level Red, Maximum Performance and Mojo. The Level Red and the Mojo (seen above) are similar from a suspension and engine standpoint. Both boast a two-inch Jeep Performance Parts lift kit, which officials tell us is coming to market in the next few months. There are a pair of Dana 44 crate axles on both the front and rear, while a Jeep Performance Parts Rock-Trac transfer case has been fitted. The 3.6-liter V6 engines on both Jeeps can breathe a bit easier thanks to a new cold-air intake and exhaust system.
