The Jeep CJ7 Sport, produced from 1976 to 1986, embodies the spirit of off-road adventure and rugged capability that has become synonymous with the Jeep brand. The 1979 model year saw significant changes to the CJ7, including the introduction of the iconic "round headlights." This model was the epitome of the classic Jeep design - a compact, open-air vehicle with a strong ladder frame chassis, solid axles, and a powerful engine. The CJ7 Sport, in particular, was designed for those seeking a more affordable and stripped-down version of the CJ7, featuring a minimalist interior and standard equipment. It offered a combination of affordability, ruggedness, and off-road capabilities, making it a popular choice for enthusiasts and everyday drivers alike. Under the hood, the 1979 CJ7 Sport was typically powered by a 258 cubic inch (4.2 liter) inline-six engine, delivering respectable power and torque for its size. The engine was paired with a three-speed manual transmission, with a four-speed manual or automatic transmission also available as options. The CJ7 Sport featured a solid front and rear axle setup with leaf springs, providing excellent ground clearance and articulation. The vehicle's short wheelbase and high ground clearance made it incredibly agile off-road, easily traversing challenging terrain and tackling obstacles with ease. The 1979 CJ7 Sport also carried the signature Jeep reliability, renowned for its robust construction and durable components, making it a capable and dependable companion for any adventure. The factory service repair manual, an essential resource for owners and mechanics alike, provides detailed instructions and diagrams for maintaining, repairing, and restoring this iconic Jeep.
