2011 Jeep Liberty 70th Anniversary Edition

In celebrating the brand’s 70th anniversary, Jeep has decided to release something special for all of its customers.But hey, a special edition model is a special edition model. Jeep is turning 70 years old this year and they’re bringing on the year-long celebration on a very high note.Whether the brand has more in store for us in 2011 is another matter altogether. From the looks of things, though, we wouldn’t be surprised if they do have more surprises for us as the year rolls along.

For the special edition Liberty, Jeep left the powertrain alone, opting the use of the very same 3.7-liter V6 engine that produces 210 horsepower at 5,200 rpm and 235 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm and mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission.Jeep priced the Liberty 70th Anniversary Edition at $25,515. The price is more expensive than all Liberty variants with the exception of the Liberty Jet Sport 4x4, which has a price tag of $26,360.

The Jeep Liberty Sport and Limited trims have been dressed up by the brand to adorn their 70th Anniversary package. For the Liberty line, the changes include 18” Mopar wheels with polished face and painted pockets, chrome f side moldings, roof rails, and a license plate brow in the exterior. Meanwhile, the interior gets an Dark Olive/Dark Slate leather seating with Chestnut accent stitching and piping, a leather wrapped steering wheel with Chestnut accents, satin chrome accents and bezels in anodized Silver and Black Lacewood finish, Berber floor mats with Chestnut binding, and Mopar stainless-steel doorsill plates.

2011 Jeep Liberty Renegade

Positioned between the base and Limited trim levels, the new Liberty Renegade attempts to lend a more aggressive look to the Liberty by adding darkened headlamp bezels, silver trim bits, skid plates, tow hooks, and dark gray 16-inch wheels with white-letter tires.

Interior upgrades include nicer cloth seats, “driftwood” accent bezels, a leather-wrapped center console and steering wheel, a vehicle info screen, and cruise control. Among the available paint colors is an exclusive Salsa Red Pearl, and the Renegade also comes with Jeep’s Selec-Trac active four-wheel drive system with two-speed transfer case and traction control.

As with all Liberty models, the Renegade is powered by Chrysler’s cranky old 3.7-liter V-6 that produces 210 hp and 235 lb-ft of torque. The last-gen Liberty was also offered in Renegade spec; it featured a bank of roof-mounted off-road lights.

2011 Jeep JK-8 Independence

Jeep Scrambler CJ-8 from the 1980's, Mopar has designed a kit for do-it-yourselfers that converts a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited into a pickup truck. The bed length is 50 inches and the width between wheel wells is 44 inches. The team created body panels to cover the second-row entrance and removed all of the interior parts behind the front seats—transforming the vehicle into a two-seater with just enough room for gear inside, and a pickup style bed to be used for outside cargo.

The JK-8 drivetrain is fitted with a Mopar/Dynatrac ProRock 44 front axle and stock Dana 44 rear axle, both spun with 4.88 gears. Linking the axles to the frame is a 4.5-inch long-arm suspension kit and 37-inch BF Goodrich Mud Terrain KM2 tires make the connection to the ground. A fresh coat of yellow paint and Mopar's off-road bumpers for the front and rear were utilized along with a new fuel door and slush mats.

The JK-8 kit includes bed floor, inner/outer body panels, half hard top (works with Freedom Top panels), and a new bulkhead.
