1984 Jeep J10 Laredo review from North America
"The toughest truck ever made, nothing beats this Jeep"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel sending unit has gone out.
Rear end rebuilt.
Oil leak, very slow, but noticeable at current mileage.
Fuel economy very poor. After market 4bbl Edelbrock 600cfm carburetor and manifold gets 14 miles per gallon.
General comments?
Outstanding 4x4 truck. A pleasure to drive on and off-road. You just can't tear these things up. I recently had a wreck in mine and flipped it into a ditch. It crushed the cab and broke the transmission and motor mounts. Replaced those, save for the body work, and she runs fine.
I've got a 8" lift and Yokohama Super Digger 32x11.5R15 tires, along with an Edelbrock Performer Series 4bbl manifold and Q-Jet 600cfm carburator on it now, and it'll get up and go. There's nothing in this world I'd trade for this truck, she'll be my Grandkids someday and still be climbing hills.
