That is a very unique truck. I love to see that in person. Thanks to the original poster for sharing this

Good to note that. Thanks derf

You have a herd of trucks . Comanche addiction has a serious grip on you - no 12 step programs for us

Nicely done with rebuilding the stuff on your own. It was great catching up on your progress

The deal of the year! Wow it looks like it is in excellent condition. I’m floored about your good fortune. Congratulations

Double whammy - that is horrible. That color is very nice. Keep posting your progress

Welcome! I agree it was a steal. Never seen a shell like that . Looking forward to your progress.

This cleaned up nicely->

Excellent

Well deserved. Congratulations on MJOTM

That is an excellent color

It looks like it so I will get that while I’m at it. Thank you

Just contacted him now. Will I need the widened $4 gasket too?

I agree. We always use red locktite on every ring gear we install.

Another junk yard score-> Came out of a 1989 Cherokee. I will be collecting these as they pop up

Wow - beautiful truck. Love the matching valve cover too. Nice touch.

Great to know! Thank you

Changing the axle fluid out of the AMC20 axle and replacing the differential cover with one from OX lockers. The gears look good, but the clutches are shot -> Put the new cover on -> I get the cover on and refill the oil, only to discover an axle seal that made quite a slick on the rim and the floor.

Thank you Desertrat1991. A lot of helpful information . Dang I missed it. I guess I should keep my Q9000 winch that’s on the Cherokee. I was going to sell it with the Jeep, but they can get on their own and save me some cash. I really don’t like going in the mud but some places it’s unavoidable.

I’m looking at winches and was wondering what size I should be looking at? I am checking out the new Warn winches and they have a 8000#, but is that large enough? If I’m being realistic it will probably just be used to pull out of mud holes. Maybe just an occasional trip outside of my state, so not much rock crawling at all.

Very true!

My vote is definitely get it if you have the room

Hit it pretty good at the LKQ today. Got a notice that a 1990 Comanche was getting put in lot today, so I rushed down. I quickly put the tailgate in my wheel barrel and went to get the ECU but decided to grab it after I took out the passenger side seat bracket (driver’s side was rusted out). Big mistake I guess. A guy came in and removed it as I worked on getting the bracket out . Still a good day -> They wanted $80 for the two tail lights, so I passed on them. Headliner was no good in the front - crumbling because I guess it was water damaged.

It did. It shot off the tire like a ramp 😳

One of my best friends was heading to work in his 1987 Jeep Wrangler a few years back when a girl hit his back wheel. She launched her car off it and ended up flipping her car on to her roof. Both were ok and his Jeep only had a small dent on the corner of it. Another driver captured it on his dash cam. The action really begins at the :50 mark.
