    1975 Cherokee Chief - Chris Hollingsworth



    As promised, my writeup for the "mud mobile" as my teenage daughter calls it..

    1975 Cherokee Chief "S"
    Built April 1975 with original owner's manual
    100150 miles
    Engine:
    AMC 360 V8
    Edelbrock R4B Intake
    Carter AVS 4bbl carburator
    Drivetrain:
    TH-400 Automatic
    Borg Warner Quadratrac with low range
    3.54 gears in Dana 44s
    Other:
    Extra 18 gal fuel tank
    Swing away tire and fuel can holder
    Heavy duty suspension
    My FSJ was rescued from the owner of a 78 Cherokee who was planning to use it for parts. Fortunately nothing had been stripped but had been driven little and sat under a big oak tree. Needless to say the vent boxes were full of leaves and even .22 caliber shells! After a lenghty clean up I've replaced or repared:

    All rubber hoses
    All fluids
    Alternator
    Starter
    Rear window
    Numerious light bulbs
    Rebuilt distributor
    Repared engine wiring
    Replaced Motorcraft 2bbl carburator and adapter with 68 model Carter AVS.
    Future plans include finding original steel wheels, body work and new paint, interior work and at least a 3" lift.

    Basically stock Cherokee Chief with 23 year old paint and interior not to mention a darn good daily driver
