Jeep Grand Cherokee parts
by GLADY REIGN
When Jeep and its mother brand, DaimlerChrysler, introduced the Jeep Cherokee model, the said sport-utility vehicle immediately garnered a strong market following, what with its superior performance-driven capacity. And even after ten years from its initial introduction, it was still quite successful and considered as one of the top choices in its category. However, as there was a rising demand for much bigger and grander SUVs, Jeep then set out to design a spinoff of the Cherokee line, and this is how the Jeep Grand Cherokee came into being. In the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Jeep and DaimlerChrysler hit yet again another gold mine. This automobile made considerable headlines, tagged as the bigger and better version of the Cherokee due to its luxury-infused concept and handsome style. But more than the aesthetic aspect, the Jeep Grand Cherokee has earned raves because of its multi-functioning attributes. Car manufacturers have cleverly designed the Grand Cherokee in such a way that it is striking enough to have its drivers beaming with pride, maneuverable enough for city traffic, adequately spacious for family comfort, and sturdy enough for off-road travels.
The pioneering model of the Grand Cherokee came in three trims: base, laredo, and limited. Unlike its competitors, the Jeep Grand Cherokee was built using a stiff unibody chassis rather than the typical body-on-frame structure. And so, in connection with its frame, the grand Cherokee's wheelbase gets to extend to 105.9 inches long, 4.5 inches longer than its brother, which would then result into a more blissful legroom for back passengers. This automobile also gets the upperhand from other SUVs in its batch, since as of that period, it is the only one with four-wheel anti-lock brakes and a driver��s side airbag. In terms of its engine system, powerful V6 and V8 engines are readily available and enhanced in every released edition of the Grand Cherokee. Just in the year of 2005 made witness of a 210-horsepower 3.7-liter V6, a 235-hp 4.7-liter V8, and another V8 engine with 330-hp and 5.7-liter trait. A five-speed Mercedes automatic transmission (W5A580) can also be utilized, showcasing partial engagement in third, fourth, and fifth gears to improve shift feel, economy, and transmission cooling. Introduced as well in 2005 were an active suspension, electronic differentials, and an independent front suspension for better on-road handling. A list of other Jeep Grand Cherokee parts enhancements would include front and side-curtain airbags, an infinity sound system with 10-disc changer, power sunroof, automatic lowering headlights, and a slew of other features.
With all these continuous enhancements and value-added features placed in the Jeep Grand Cherokee��s feet, it is no wonder that this automobile remains to be a favorite in the luxury SUV category. And with all the manufacturers�� crusade in providing superior parts, it seems almost an indignity to treat this car with neglect. Indeed, the owner should carry out its simple role maintenance and timely part replacements in order to keep this state-of-the-art vehicle in its superior fighting mood.
