Roll bar in Florida pic-n-pull
Drahcir495 replied to Drahcir495's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
That is a much better word for it. I think it is an option. My 89 does not have one. -
There are two Comanche's sitting in the pre-salvage lot in Clearwater/St Pete. One has a roll bar in it but I can't say if it is a LB or short from the way it is parked - big place. It may take a few weeks for it to make it into the gen pop but I will post a picture of it when it does. I am still looking Cabz :wink:. There is a bed light on the MJ that is already out for salvage-fyi. Rich

Have you seen this? It is an 86 so it should be a LB Comanche. 1986 Jeep : COMANCHE Item number: 4617320062

The kid and the dogs like it, so I can keep it. My wife just tolerates the jeeps and tries to appear interested. So I guess I got it good :wink:

Now thats comedy :lol:

I find myself doing the same thing. I will be like "Hey Sparky (sparky is my 3rd person name), you better watch that or your gonna bust your knuckle with that wrench" or something that involves injuring myself. And you know what, I am always right. :lol:
-
Sweet :D I still have an eye out for ya at my local Pick-n-Pull for the rollbar.

8) 8) 8) 8) Now I wish I didn't get rid of the other wrecked MJ...keep us posted of new pics!

Possible cooling switch in the future...
Drahcir495 replied to 89Tonto's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
That is one I have also. Here are a few more that I found. JP mag did this conversion to their MJ(I think it was the MJ) a few months back - check the web site. Anyhoo, here are some links; http://www.dirtdevils.org/briantechtippage4.htm http://www.olypen.com/craigh/rad.htm http://jeephorizons.com/tech/xj_cooling.html -
"Shipping costs: US $125.00 -- Standard Flat Rate Shipping Service " Still a good deal if they work. I paid $189 a piece for similar seats for the cj. I had to return them :cry: because they were too tall....could not get under the steering wheel-Rich

Congrats and welcome. Any chance that that is an Olympic edition?

Un-freakin-believable! I would only suggest you you replace the wine with Goldslauger! It taste best when chilled in Norway. Awesome, just awesome :!:

Lets see if this all adds up
Drahcir495 replied to Drahcir495's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Thanks everyone :D I am going to get the TNT UBE with the 3/4" lift so I will be sure to get 6" with the SOA-Rich -

Lets see if this all adds up
Drahcir495 replied to Drahcir495's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Could you tell me how (tall) high the RE weld-on spring perch is off the axle. That would help me decide on whether to add the 3/4'' UBE or not. Thanks, Rich -
Here should be a picture of my rear leaf springs. 8) Now the axle is around 2.75" + the spring perch .75 + half of the spring pack 1" (2'' overall) = 4.5" lift if do the SOA? Does this sound about right? I can't figure out how you would be able to get more than 4.5" out of a standard SOA :shock: Is there lift in the stock leaf springs? Can somebody enlighten me - Rich

Spring wrap/wheel hop with SOA?
Drahcir495 replied to Drahcir495's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I was thinking 5-6''. I think my question should be - when I do the SOA, what is the rock bottom hight in the rear needed to clear the 33s [4.5?]. I can match the front to the rear. I just don't want to come up short. Thanks-Rich -
Spring wrap/wheel hop with SOA?
Drahcir495 replied to Drahcir495's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
So I will go with the SOA and extra leaf if needed for wrap. Should I try and get a little lift [3/4 or so] out of the u-bolt eliminator kit or will the SOA be more than enough?-Rich -
I am planning on lifting my 89 4x4 long bed Comanche [metric ton w/44] and going to 33'' tires. How many have done the rear SOA and have had problems with spring wrap. What can be done for it if needed? Should I just go with custom spring lift like the JP Comanche?-Rich

TnT u-bolt eliminators
Drahcir495 replied to Drahcir495's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Thanks Manche. Pingpong; I value your imput. After I made my front bumper for my Scrambler, I have not been motivated to make my own junk. I am getting to the piont where I have more money than time. That aint saying much :oops: -
Thanks 87manche for getting me to this link. I don't have the time or desire to make these UBE. I figure the DPG bump stops are 80 bucks. The MORE anti wrap perches are 50 bucks. That is 130 right there. Toss in the shock perches and eliminate the ubolts and my time = Priceless. Here is my question for Scorpion; I am doing a spring over on my 89LWB 4x4. I want to run 33'' tires. I have the D44 rear axle w/metric ton package & stock springs. Which UBE should I go with? No lift or other lifted? Any one have an idea of where I need to be to clear 33s? I have to say the customer service at TnT is fantastic. Bob at TnT always had time for my dumb @$$ qustions and concerns. That was one of my "must have" when picking a lift company. My personal experience with RE has made me value the importance of customer service.-Rich

I need some advise. I am going to do the SOA in the rear and came across this; http://www.tntcustoms.com/webV3/ubolteliminators.asp . What do you all think about going with this set up?-Rich

Wow! How did I miss this post :roll: Better late then never. Looks real good-Rich
