long time CC member, yet never a comanche owner myself. There have been quite a few "almost's". I have owned a '47 cj2a, a '67(?) cj6, and drove a '00 WJ for 4 years, which is currently in the process of being handed down to another driver. anyway, found this little guy local, and would like to know what you guys think: http://www.ksl.com/index.php?nid=218&ad ... h=comanche yes its rough, but the price seems to be right. needs a muffler, and prob a good tune up. its a perfect candidate for my d44/d60 combo that i have taking up space in the garage. :wrench:

commander lights, commander grill?? either way it looks

so i havent posted here in a while but i've been keeping tabs here and there anyway, if anyone is in the Ft. Collins/Loveland area, and has a bit of spare time in the next few days, send me a PM. and yes its Comanche related

yea ive been scoping out ksl and craigslist alot lately lookin for one. missed a nice blue '90 by a few days. anyway...how much you lookin to get?? and where are you??

I'm looking for a cheap MJ in or around SLC, UT. Id prefer a short bed 4.0 auto, but i can't be picky. cheap is the key word here

so WFC, your truck is gonna be LSR-3 then, right??

ooh. yea i can see that being an issue

has anyone bolted a set of JK rims onto their MJ yet?? theyre a larger rim (17s i think). I'm interested in the JK Rubicon rims in particular, since the TJ Rubicon rims look so good on XJs/MJs

there was a nice black comanche in the back right corner with a 97+ conversion, no pics?? i got there around 1:30 and didnt see your truck anywhere....

where in NH are those trails?? they look like so much fun!!

that 60's dodge crew cab is making me drool, but that black early 80's toyota with the 8 wheels, dual steering axles, and the lack of a hood because the bling bling motor is too big.... :nuts:

hey $500MJ, not to change the topic, but what lift do you have under that rig?? its got a perfect stance if you ask me, and its great to see that it gets used. and whats the roll bar out of??

I'm pretty sure its uni. idk what its got for a drivetrain, but as far as i can tell from pictures, the rear section is the exact same as the first generation boxy cherokee with the squared off taillights and 'sharp' corners

so who's gonna be the first kid on the block with the front clip off of a 2500 on their MJ??

theres a few pictures of one if you do a google image search for 'Jeep Comanche RC'

theres one down on the CT shore that I'm gonna look at within the next few days if its still available, but its too far to get my mechanic down there, and i bet that i won't be able to bring it all the way back up here for him to check it out (springfield ma). one of my friends whos into rovers might come along to help out, since hes a bit more mechanically inclined than i am. but thanks for the help guys, its definetly opening my eyes as to what i should look for. keep em comin!!

so I'm lookin for a comanche, and ive come along a few. but I'm not sure what i should really be looking for. i know to ask about miles, rust spots, drivetrain, replaced parts, etc, but what are some trouble spots that comanches might have that i should ask about?? what are some signs of 'bad things to come' that i might be able to identify?? in particular, problems to the 4.0, AW4, the transfer case, and maybe even the axles. can you tell I'm kinda new to this?? :roll: :???:

what year is that FSJ??

you should swap in post '97 body panels and put in on some Moab rims. it'll be trick to those who know what there lookin at, as well as modern and clean to everyone else. maybe even put in the post '97 dash cluster to complete it. and don't do anything crazy with the paint, maybe even stick with a fresh coat of a stock Jeep color. just my $0.02

yea I'm lookin for something that wouldve come on a comanche straight from the factory. even pictures would help...

does anyone know of a site that would have all the different comanche paint scemes?? i'm wondering what colors the comanches came stock with, and what decal sets were available. thanks

that was me, i just forgot to sign in....stupid me

here's a longer one of the same guy
