Craig, Colorado

Up for sale is my 83 cj-7, ive had this project for about five years and have a alot of good times with it but its time to move on to the next. I'll list the downers first, the paint is rattle can black, unfortunatley this is how it was when i bought it, i have just touched it off after wheeling, the transmission pops out of first gear, it feels like a worn out fork to me but i cant say for sure with out opening it up, I would do so but my current job situation has kept me out of state the majority of this year and i do not have time to mess with it. It has the t5 trans, i was looking into doing the chevy sm465 conversion, if that is something you would like to do ill include an sm465 with the jeep, Has some bubbling around the rear fenders, it can be seen where the floor boards have been patched in places but some rust is showing as well but very solid other than that, the doors are rust free! Solid off road vehicle, Has spartan front locker with the old style 6 bolt wheel hubs, currently has solid drive flanges but with six bolt hubs a set of the more heavy duty hubs can be installed. Rear axle has Alloy usa chromoly 1 piece axle shafts and a lock right locker. Has a very solid smooth operating dana 300 tcase. Now the exciting part, over the last couple years ive been been putting together a new engine that i was able to install in november, is less that 1500 on the new build. When i got the jeep it had the stock 258 i6 which was great but didnt fuel my disease, I purchased another jeep with a supposedly rebuilt 401 that ended up being totally junk, so the block got sent to the machine shop in denver and i started buying parts. WE ended up with a .060 over amc 401 has factory forged rods and crank that have been recut and reconditioned, the whole rotationg assembly has been balanced as well. I found a set of the amx/javelin 291c high compression heads that have been completely rebuilt new valves, springs, and grind job. Has comp cams full roller rockers with chromoly push rods taking orders from a mid range lunati voodoo flat tappet cam. Vintage edelbrock torker amc intake fueled buy a brand new holley 650 double pumper. You will notice in the picture an extra oil line in the valley of the engine, the machine shop machined the block for this to prevent the notorious amc starvation of the main bearings. Gm hei conversion distributor with hand made taylor wires, exhausted by fenderwell headers into new glass packs. she has only had royal purple oil, starting with break in oil and than 10w40 after that. She does require premium gas, i guesimate 11/11.5.1 compression with the small heads and factory pistons. this things screams! Has more umph than a jeep probably should but its lots of fun. Has 4inch suspension lift plus spring over conversion and body lift. Other goodies include 130w driving lights on the bumper and light bar on top. The tailgagte has been converted to the new style swing away instead of the fold down. Has Smitty built 8k winch that works great. Has custom built 160-180 amp alternator to run the lights and winch, comes with 2 optima yellow tops that sit in new rugged ridge dual battery tray. The switch panel inside give you control over the extra lights, a holley electric high idle solenoid to keep rpms up while winching to prevent battery drain, a switch to keep the thermostatically controlled fans on full time and a switch to shut them off for the underwater situations. Has power steering and newly installed power brake set up i kiped off the parts jeep, new master cylinder as well. Has brand new larger amc 11 inch clutch. Pro comp extreme 33 12.5 15 muds are about 30%. Thanks for looking.
