  1. regearing a 35 is commonly considered a waste of money. but regearing a stronger axle is an investment. plus with your lift your stock rear driveshaft is the perfect length for accommodating the new axle (the snout of the common upgrade axles is about an inch longer than the 35).
  2. it's common to swap in a newer block because they are far more plentiful. be sure to pull up the carpets to check for moisture. and welcome to the addiction
  3. the relay harness won't fix it if there's no power going to the low beams. you'll still need to diagnose where the power stops. could be as simple as both low beam filaments being burnt out.
  4. being an early MJ, your sheet is missing a ton of codes due to problems around the transition from AMC to chrysler. if you look at one of the later MJs, they have a lot more detail. but you still might have your original paper copy! they are sometimes found behind a door panel, the rear carpeted panel, under a seat or even wedged up in the dash on the pass side.

  6. a few of the junkyards on car-part.com include pics of the Jeep. wish more did, but oh well.
  7. airing down is one of the tenements of offroading. street pressures just don't work as well offroad. so I give you our last day camping near the dunes, after I had already aired back up to street pressure for the drive home, and everyone said "let's go down to the lakefront to watch the sun set. I figured since I wasn't doing anything crazy, just driving over to the beach I could get away without airing down. nope. got as far as the main drag would take me and got stopped by the very first little hill. got out, aired down, and drove right out. couple more from earlier that day

    have you found this thread yet?
  9. should be an easy fix if you get lucky at the junkyard and find a white one.
  10. one is a 4x4 toy that currently holds down the gravel next to the barn (can't let it float away), one is a rustfree shell of dreams (i.e. it could be anything some day), one is a resto in progress, and the trailer actually gets to go out with me on adventures.
  11. Don passed away last year.
  12. those are common rope anchor points added by a previous owner.
  13. someone is selling off their stash of taillights (not cheap though) https://boston.craigslist.org/sob/pts/d/stoughton-jeep-comanche-mj-tail-lights/7209219976.html
  14. of all the possibilities rattling around in my head, that was not one of them.

    Halloween

    did you check the video thread pinned at the top?
  16. life doesn't always make sense. the key is to enjoy what you have and share smiles with everyone you can. at least they got to enjoy time together in their dream location and make some great memories for her to take forward. :)
  17. I drove through there on saturday. beautiful country!
  18. it's not a direct bolt-in per se, but it is an easy mod to gain cupholders edit: that applies to the console. seats require a bit more because of the 96+ floor differences
  19. perfection incarnate
