This book answers
Jeeper's "most asked" tech questions!
I
spent 20 years twisting wrenches as an ASE Certified Master Tech and worked
on a passle of 4x4s before "retiring" to write full-time six years ago.
I'm still (and always will be) a gearhead, so much of my work has focused
on the mechanical side of things. Part of my work these days is answering
Jeep tech questions and a couple of years ago, I began to notice the same
ones coming up again and again. I also noticed a sad lack of deep technical
info on many Jeep componants. It wasn't long before the idea of a Jeep
performance handbook took shape in my head as an answer to jeep owners
wanting a map to chart their path through the mechanical minefield of a
Jeep buildup. My goal was to offer cost-effective advice and sound engineering
principles to help you build a better Jeep. I hope you enjoy reading this
book half as much as I enjoyed writing it. See you on the trail! Jim Allen
Paperback

Motorbooks International;
Dimensions (in inches): 0.45 x 10.62 x 8.29
Book Description
Adapted
from a spartan military design, Jeep defined the standard for civilian
off-road performance in the 1950s. Today, as an integral member of the
DaimlerChrysler family, Jeep is a major player in the high-end sport utility
market. With special attention to the development of the off-road and SUV
markets, this color history profiles Jeep's remarkable evolution from its
years as the stout cornerstone of American Motors through its incorporation
into Chrysler. Striking color photography of classic Jeeps from throughout
the years includes such popular and collectible models like CJs, pickups,
Jeepsters, Forward Control trucks, military Jeeps, Wagoneers, Cherokees,
Wranglers, and more.

Superb
photography illustrates the complete evolution of Jeep, from the early
military models through the popular CJs, Jeepsters, station wagons, sedan
deliveries, Commandos, Wagoneers, and Cherokee SUVs. Extensive production
figures and specifications accompany manufacturer photography. Additional
coverage of Jeep trucks like the Gladiator and J15 make this a reference
no Jeep enthusiast should be without.

Motorbooks International
; Dimensions (in inches): 0.67 x 11.35 x 10.56
Book Description
In
the course of a little under 60 years, the Jeep has evolved from little
more than mechanical mule into the epitome of luxury four-wheel- drive
vehicles. This book traces that heritage from the delivery of the first
Jeep by Willys Overland to Allied military services in 1941, through popular
postwar civilian models like the CJ and on to today's Grand Cherokee SUVs.
Specially commissioned color photographs document all the models and the
Jeep's growing icon status as marque ownership passes from Willys to AMC
and finally to Chrysler.

Four Wheeler
Magazine, March 1998
Another
must have for the Library The Jeep Bible: Second Edition by Granville
King Almost 15 years ago, Granville King, in his unique style, published
a book specifically written for those of us who love, live and breathe
Jeep. There has never been a more user-friendly instruction book on how
to keep your Jeep alive than the Jeep Bible. The main body of the
work discusses each of the major components of any pre-1986 Jeep: Leaks
and Noises, Engine Troubleshooting, Manual Transmissions and Transfer Cases,
and more. The book was originally published in 1985, but recently benefits
form another Jeep enthusiast and technical expert - Four Wheeler's own
"Techline" answer man, Willie Worthy. Willie spent many days and nights
making a few corrections along the way, as well as adding his own personal
stamp on the Jeep Bible, with three additional chapters covering
everything from engine to axle swaps, locking differential options, wheel
and tire combinations, and synthetic lubes, to name a few. In addition,
Willie compiled, quite possibly, the most comprehensive listing of Jeep
sources ever assembled. These are not just books, they are the resource.

Jeep Prototypes
- A book for all Jeepers, January 18, 2001
Reviewer:
Aaron
J. Heiner from Maryland
I
found this book to be quite differant than other Jeep books owned. This
book provides a brief overview of Jeeps that were never produced. Having
dozens of books on Jeep, and have thinking that I have seen every prototype
ever made, this book proved me quite wrong. There were litterally dozens
on Jeeps that I had never seen before. This book is a must for all hardcore
Jeepers. Personally a few color photos would have been nice for the price
but the few unseen Jeeps included makes up for this.
