update, chewed through 2 serpentine belts doing light driving in the last 2 days :fs1: drove it home one night, then the next time i couldnt make it home, so i went to my gf's house where i fixed it after i got a ride into the next town to get parts :D my new alternator is the culprit, the pulley on it didnt line up with the tensioner or power steering pump, its all fixed now but not before it tore my dayco poly rib belt to shreds =[ i had to remove the stock alternator spacer and spin it around, (on the right where the bolt is) and on the left i had to put 2 washers in to keep every thing nice and tight. 3 washers in the bottom behind the 90 degree flange ( same width as the 2 uptop) and then 3 washers behind the alternator pulley itself (they were such a tight fit i had to drive them past the threads) everything is lined up perfectly now :jump: more to come, here's a pic of a comanche that rolled up to my work. 1989 renix 4.0l blue, he is the second owner of this comanche and has owned it for 20 years now :thumbsup:

funny you should mention that went to PnP a week and a bit ago got a V8 ZJ tie rod for $9.49 :thumbsup: installed then, did a bit of wheeling to test it out, muuuuch better, improved steering, less delay from the wheel as well :yes: MJ earning its keep, scored a 62" tv for under $200 :shake: battery died, so... i checked the cables to see if there was a problem, I'm thinking so :oops: the culprit all done, new wires and terminals turns out, that wasnt the only problem, seems like my alternator got fried, so... you know what that means, out with the old, in with the heavy duty old 65 amp alternator vs. new 115 amp alternator. installed while replacing the alternator, i decided to clean part of my engine bay, found rust under the battery tray! out comes the rust converter all converted and all back together, installing factory window "covers" just slide em in, and take a screw driver and push theese 3 clips in per door, and re assemble all done not so random, random comanche (been staring at it for years! decided to take a trip and visit it :P ) more to come as always :D *edit* also, did i forget to mention, my girlfriend helped me work on the truck!!! :clapping: :yes: :wrench: :D

great work, but i really hope you cleaned all that "rust dust/residue" before you welded it in, it could become more that dust in the future :thumbsup: can't wait to see more updates -

update, starter relay and ignition coil went on me, replaced them with 4.0L parts and it fired right up :D took my little truck wheeling yesterday, came close to going over the edge, so i kicked the GF out, and thankfully didnt go over the edge :D pic from the night before, our starting location after a 20 min treck through the bush, we made it onto.... a new highway being built XD oops, we came from the other side of this fence. and this is where i almost lost it, 4th run up, with 1st gear screaming and i made it, only shy of one pair of under garments me and my comanche panoramic view of where we ended up, I'm on the far right, ended up turning around and going back the way we came. click this link for full sized pic ^^^^^^^ there was more to take pics of, but my co-pilot was a little shaken up after our first hill climb :shake:

time for an oil change :wrench: the parts off with the old doesnt look too bad inside new k&n oil filter all back together, threw a new valve cover gasket on as well blower stopped working, pulled the controls to find this, replaced the box and spliced the wires in. also wired in a cigar lighter all together :D then, as i was backing out of my drive way for a late night 7-11 run, this happened. :roll: cop who happened to roll up beside me for gas stood there scratching their head trying to figure out what happened :dunno: , i guess thats what i get for leaving jugs full of oil right beside the comanche :thumbsup: jeep on
