wow great start already! love these 97+ builds! Welcome too! :thumbsup:

I'm usually not into long beds but i like your! sweet rig :cheers:

:drool: more pictures!

did some interior work this weekend Ditched the bench seat for some xj seats and picked up a 97+ xj console the console was tan but i need gray to match the rest of my interior so i cleaned it up real nice and got some vinyl/interior paint and installed an LED strip for the 4WD shift light :thumbsup: Also received my double sheer track bar and go that in this week :banana:

James, 87 mj 4.5 on 33s, open/locked OBA Wheat Ridge, CO

:needpics: and welcome to comanche club! good to see another colorado member :thumbsup:

well one of the 35s i bought had a rip in it and the tire guy i brought it too said it was too big to repair, it was about a 3" puncture so i sold them and made 10 bucks :thumbsup: I also changed my plan a little bit, i decided instead of the long arms to stick with short arms seeing how I'm only at 4" of lift in the front and have no real plans to go any bigger at this point so i built the beefiest adjustable short arms ever and i upgraded to a double shear track bar. 2" 1/4" wall square tubing with 1 1/4" currie johnny joints :thumbsup: and i saw another comanche in town also recently took a trip to the east coast (mass to be specific) to see my family and got to check out my brothers homemade offroad trailer and if your into classic looking jeeps and diesel engines check his build out http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f22/should-have-started-cj-build-1066682/ then i got back to town and went to a car meet/show/cruise and saw the biggest xj iv ever seen

some more long arm stuff :thumbsup: and picked up a set of 35x12.5x15 goodyear mtrs :banana: i just need 15" wheels now and i started painting, what do you guys think of the color? there are a couple other comanches on here in this color but they don't post anymore (not that i know of anyway)

more pics of the dakota seats?

found the plug for the 02 sensor, but no 02 sensor :hmm: , guess i should put one in haha :yes:

I don't have an 02 sensor

so my mj runs good when its cold but once it gets warmed up it idles funny, the idle fluxuates a lot, and it also smells like I'm running very rich, i tried replacing one of the air monitors on the vacum system and even replaced my cat and muffler, only thing i can think of is the injectors maybe i have a stuck injector? its an 87 with the renix with 225,xxx miles any thoughts? p.s i once burned a 1/4 tank of gas just idling for 45 mins

lets see it live again!

ordering the rest of my long arm parts this week :) and I'm looking for a hp30 without the vaccum dissconnect, going to truss it and put my 4.10s in it with a lunchbox locker, maybe wj knuckles and 1ton steering, if i have the funds when i drop the axle in

I'm at 38th and sheridan, but you won't see much of my comanche on the streets these days, i ride my street bike 95% of the summer theres another comanche in brighton, he lives by the ball feilds, had a rock crawler in his yard last fall, he also has a cj5 out front

yeah, it was on craigslist, i was on the fence about selling it, had a couple people offer me some money but i delcined all offers, yes the front bumper was on in the picture but i just recently took it off, i have a new bumper iv been working on for awhile.

and a few more pictures

oh boy i havnt been on in a long time but iv made some progress on my comanche since last time i logged in :) i aquired a topper, added a stinger, then added a bed mount tire carrier, then put a stock bumper on the front and took the topper off and somewhere along the lines i ended up on 33s haha this was early spring then came the tire mount ]

got that mj bench seat console laying around still? i still need one haha and what did you do with that short bed topper?

i love your build, its awesome. i get to drive my comanche to mass and back to colorado to pick up the rest of my belongings at my parents house this up coming summer! i can't wait to road trip the thing across the country haha

ill have pictures of the OBA set up this weekend! and my new bench seat that will be getting put in! i had to rebuild my whole cooling system, new water pump, new thermostat and radiator, did all that in 15 degree weather :mad: but shes has a brand new system and is back to normal :thumbsup: also have two sets of hella 500s ready to have a light bar built for and installed, might get to that this weekend if i have time, its going to be a baja style/inspired light bar.

I'm glad to see we have other VW fans on CC, I'm also a VW fan! I'm more into the 80s tho

that tie rod is not only a danger to yourself but other drivers on the road, and why upgrade to wj knuckles and brakes if its only a DD?

ugh i love snow! really digging your rig keep it up :thumbsup:
