fits down a trail I made. Started it today and ran it in what feels like -25’ degrees

Didn't make it to storage before the first snow fall.

Thank you.

Thank you all! This is awesome. I couldn't believe it when I started sanding down the bed since it was repainted when I got it. Previous owner got rid of it to build a rock crawler. I only know of 3 other Comanches that are solid in my area since the plow guys drop salt like it's going out of style and most vehicles rot away up here. Wait til you see what I have planned next for my build! also, updated pictures I found on an old phone to my build thread .

The 90' SporTruck from Florida I picked up from a local member Bob. A really great guy with a lot of knowledge on these trucks. This is a high output swapped 4.0L 4x4 automatic . Has a Visor.

Thank you very much. I think the dirt bound rear bumper and unknown rock sliders will complete the look .

Figured since I can't stop driving her, when I should be buttoning up some things. I my as well take some pictures. I do still have to finish the interior, and sound system. I plan to buy a DIY rear bumper kit. Sprayed 10 cans of fluid film underneath the cab,bed, and unibody rails. I still have a lot to do. Very happy so far with my build.

Had a little time today to get these two ready for storage. My 75' F-250 Ranger making the Comanche look small. Those old highboys came with some tall suspension back then.

Next time I see him I will. Vast knowledge and tips on these trucks.

Yes, great guy that I can learn a lot from on the Comanche .

Brought a ladder stand out with my Comanche today mid day . I realized as I made a tight trail back how much I missed driving a jeep.

Long overdue update since it's hunting season here in western New York. Warn m8000 installed behind the ARB Bumper. Noticed the ball joints on my $50 Craigslist axle were worn. Upgraded to alloy USA ball joints. While doing that noticed the tie rod and draglink were worn. Track bar is new, but plan to upgrade to adjustable . I installed a new draglink, end, and tie rod with end that is for the 95' grand Cherokee v8 ZJ. Fits great with no issues. Toolbox installed, working on the interior next . I don't have much drive time before the salt drops . Made a new friend locally who is a veteran Comanche Club member. Bought many much needed parts and a 90' sport truck 4.0l HO swapped 4x4 truck off him that is very solid from Florida. Pictures and build of that to follow. Also, my custom plate arrived 👍. and the wimpy old one.

Great! Thank you.

The link to is not found. I am in the process on wiring up my 96' doors, pw and pl using a 4-door Cherokee harness. Plugged it in and nothing. I assume I need relays or a ground? I plugged the factory harness into the the same spot on my 87' fuse panel so accessory. Any help would be greatly appreciated . Thank iad

I painted the 92' and sold it. Put a flat bed on it. It still lives local. I searched around for parts rather than hack up the rotted 92'.

Nice build. Solid start! Reminds me of mine when I acquired it years ago. It was also listed as an 88'. Title being 87'. Previous owner stared to build it his way, gave up and sold it. Lucky me. It will be worth it when it's done. Drove mine for the first time on the road today. Well worth all the hours and work. Following.

Future plans include but not limited to. -warn m8000 -lights of some sort for front and rear -Dirtbound rear bumper, most likely DIY -finish interior -8.8 ford or dana44 rear -decide to build a dana30 or swap -upgrade the steering or oversteer/highsteer -tint, radio, speakers, remote start/keyless entry -long arm front suspension...much smoother ride -maybe a visor if I can find one - Not driving in the salt ridden roads of Western New York. -who knows, it never ends. Just real happy to finally drive her.

Maiden Voyage! She is road worthy for the first time in long time! Looking forward to the next stages of my build. *drivers side headlight was out. Replaced both so they match for now. Finishing up the interior is next. A lot of things I figured wouldn't work do, including fuel gauge and horn and all gauges except alternator which charges at 14+.

Skipped the bodywork on the tailgate because of the time of year and knowing I will not be driving it in the western New York winter. Sprayed it quick to match but it was originally black. So I heated up and removed the JEEP decals on the tailgate after paint. I like the look.

Finished painting the remaining parts . And she is on the road! Picked up my plates today.

Never even thought of checking napa or other places. I'll search local then. Thanks man!

Great information . Thank you, I will look into it. I do not need oem, just light. Sounds like I will most likely try these out.

Had a local small company I deal with do it. He has done a few newer ones on Comanches over the years. Many reasons why I deal with the smaller privately owned companies. He also installed the rear free of charge using the 30 year old seal I had for it. I am happy with the result for the two hundred it costs to do it all out the door.

Looking for the latch for the sliding rear window. Thanks. Will pay shipping to 14094

I am looking for factory interior lights. B pillar and if they made them roof liner. My jeep was basically bare when I obtained it. Thanks.
