Nice Restored 1975 Jeep Cj5 4x4 With Upgrades on 2040-cars
Rifle, Colorado, United States
Well I hate to do this but I need to sell my 75 CJ5. I built this from the ground up in 2010. No short cuts were taken and tried to keep the original look with upgraded parts all throughout. I have a lot of receipts for this jeep with well over 20000 in it. Here's the goodies Chevy Dana 44 front axle narrowed to CJ7 width Parts Mikes heavy duty inner c knuckles Moser chromoly axle shafts ARB air locker 5:38 Richmond ring and pinion Warn premium hubs 5 lug Ford conversion New ball joints, studs, bearings and brakes Hi steer arms PSC hydraulic assist steering ram Parts Mike Crossover steering linkage Scout II Dana 44 rear Moser chromoly shafts ARB air locker 5:38 Richmond ring and pinion Disc brake conversion New bearings, seals, studs and brakes Mountain off road traction or anti wrap bar Balanced and blueprinted Buick 225 V6 HEI distributor Howell fuel injection Live wires Navajo brake booster PSC hydraulic assist steering No used accessories were used on motor T18 4 speed with 6.73:1 first gear ratio Center force II clutch Parts Mike hydraulic clutch kit Shackle reversal spring over suspension with reverse eye rubicon express springs Drive train industries drive shafts Mickey Thompson Classic II wheels 37" irok tires Rancho 5000 shocks Advanced adapters headers with dual exhaust New 15 gal gas tank in rear Tube bumpers front and rear Bully Dog 9000 lb winch on front Warn fender flares Bestop full top Mastercraft seats front and rear Bestop half doors and bikini top LineX bed liner under body, in tub and engine compartment Body started out rust free and straight Powder coat primer on fenders and hood Grill dash and windshield frame is powder coated black. Smittybuilt full roll cage New Glass, wiper motor, switches, mirrors, body mounts, stainless steel fasteners ect ect. Everything on this jeep is new or been rebuilt when it was built in 2010. Some parts were extremely difficult to find but I did find them. All the spare parts I have go with the jeep The bad part is that last winter the jeep rolled out of my driveway and hit my neighbors truck so that is where the dent in the drivers rear corner came from. I took it to a local body shop and he said 500 dollars to fix it. I was going to fix myself but just don't have the time to mess with it. There are a few minor oil leaks mainly from the transfer case and transmission. There are some scratches in clearcoat from going through the brush. I will try and buff them out before delivery. The fuel injection is not 100% dialed in but runs good. I have several other proms you can try and if you just send them back to howell they will burn you a new prom for free. Other than that this jeep is solid with no squeaks or rattles or issues when driving. Handles great on the highway. I can run 65 down the interstate and it drives straight without wandering all over the road. I am sure I missed some things so if you have questions please feel free to ask. I don't really use this jeep very often and has maybe 25,000 miles on it since the build. Mainly use it for hunting and running around town. The tires are worn down from driving on pavement but they are still descent shape. |

Mazda2 nets Japan Car of the Year, Cherokee first US model to ever crack top 10
Tue, 14 Oct 2014The 2015 Mazda2 is quite high up on our must-drive list. Yes, the teeny, tiny successor to the 100-horsepower five-door is worth getting excited over, largely because the previous generation was one of the absolute best smiles-per-dollar values on the market.
While we eagerly await for our opportunity to take to the 2's helm, our expectations of the new car have just been heightened thanks to its win in Japan's Car of the Year competition. Called "Demio" in the land of the rising sun, Japanese journalists handed out Mazda's second COTY award since the CX-5 took the title in 2012.
In more surprising news, the new Jeep Cherokee has made the list of 10 Best Cars in Japan. The Jeep's triumph marks the first time an American car has cracked the top ten, finishing eighth. It's not, however, the first Fiat Chrysler vehicle to snag the title, following in the footsteps of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta and Fiat Panda. Still, the fact that an American brand can make such impressive inroads into the traditionally tough-to-crack Japanese market is a seriously big deal.
Marchionne: Midsize pickup still not in the cards; Ram 1500, Jeep Wrangler could use aluminum
Wed, 07 May 2014During the Fiat-Chrysler briefings on Tuesday, Reid Bigland, head of Ram Trucks, outlined the new product plans for his brand, including confirmation that an all-new light-duty Ram 1500 will launch in 2017. From there, discussions spun off in two directions, with the main questions being: will Ram build a midsize pickup? And, following Ford's move to extensively use aluminum in its new 2015 F-150, will Chrysler be using this weight-saving material for the next round of its fullsize truck, as well?
"I think there is room for a Ram 1000," Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne (pictured above) told members of the media, saying this is a conversation the automaker has been having internally for several years now. "We've tried this ... we've actually taken it to clinics," Marchionne stated, adding that the "response has been lukewarm."
"I have better use of aluminum in this house than a pickup truck." - Sergio Marchionne
2014 Jeep Cherokee will keep Liberty designation in China... sort of
Wed, 17 Apr 2013Chinese buyers will get their first live look at the 2014 Jeep Cherokee during the Shanghai Motor Show, but CarNewsChina is reporting that it will go by a different name - Ziyou Guan, which translates to "Liberty Light." The article states that our Jeep Liberty was never sold in China, but the iconic XJ Cherokee was sold and produced there as the Qinuoji (a phonetic translation of Cherokee).
The new Jeep Liberty Light will be built alongside the Fiat Viaggio (China's Fiat-badged version of the Dodge Dart) at the Guangzhou-Fiat plant, and the two models will share the same powertrains: a 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder base engine paired to a five-speed manual or a dual-clutch transmission and a 2.4-liter four-cylinder (the base engine for the US-spec 2014 Cherokee) as an optional engine. It doesn't sound like the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 will be offered in China.
We'll be on hand when the new Jeep debuts in Shanghai, so stay tuned to Autoblog this Friday night and Saturday for our live coverage of the show.
