Up for auction is my 1990 Jeep Wrangler YJ. Less than 5Kmiles on complete power and drive train swap/re-build. Completely rebuilt 5.0L SBC Roller Motor from '90 Camaro and its resting on Novak weld-in motor mounts. Its cam is 7 BDC. It has a GM HEI ignition system and an Offenhauser 4bbl manifold with Holley Truck Avenger 479 cfm carb, an AFCO aluminum radiator, a 16 inch puller fan on a 185 degree auto-switch. 3/4-ton 700R4 with Novak main shaft and adapter for T-case. 700R4 has new Torque Converter with Lock-up at 55 mph. NP231J w/ Novak shifter, JB Gear SYE and Tera-Low splitter. D44R Front Axle w/ 3.73, Detroit Locker, High Steer, GM/Spicer 1-ton TRE's and Drag Link. Axle housing from '77 F-150 4x4 w/ passenger side shortened. 3/4-ton axle shafts cut and re-splined by the Ranger Station. GM/Spicer/Moog stubs and u-joints, GM disc brakes and shields, Ford outers and hubs. Rear Axle is 8.8 w/ 3.73's and factory limited slip-diff from '98 Ford Explorer. It is mounted using Mountain Off Road axle and E-brake kit. To eliminate a common weak spot, the axle tubes were TIG welded to the diff housing using high nickel steel. Spider-Trax adapt the 5x5.5 wheels to the 8.8's stock 5x4.5 bolt pattern. 4 wheel disc brakes give it great stopping behavior. Lokar 16 inch trans floor shifter. 5 5x5.5 bolt pattern 15x8 wheels blasted and powder-coated with 35x12.50-15LT BFG Mud T/A's. SOA with one extra leaf added to front leaf pack to help level the Jeep and support the new motor. Front shock towers from F-350 with GM leaf spring plates flipped to match SOA and High Steer. Shocks are from Off Road Unlimited and are comparable to RS 9000's. Along with the SOA there is a 2 inch body lift and 1.5 inch cross member drop. The Best-Top and carpet kit are used but in very good condition as are the original seats. All of the original gauges work except the tach. The windshield and windshield frame are brand new. The front bumper is a powder-coated 4 inch box tube 1/16 wall that is frame rail wide with 1 inch thick clevis mounts welded front and rear and 45 degree brush guard. The rear bumper is also 1/16 wall 4 inch box tube swing away with a 1-ton High-Lift bumper jack and full sized spare mounted. This Jeep is a great Jeep and I have been working on it for ten years while I was in the service, dragging it from one duty station to another. Most of the work was done by me, family and friends. It has been a labor of love and no corners were cut. Unfortunately I'm no longer in the service, I have young children, a wife and a life with less time in it to just drop everything and go wheelin'. I hope it finds its way into the hands of some one who likes to wrench and trail ride because that's really what owning a Jeep is all about. Thank you for checking out my auction.
