Hey guys long time no posts I just recently bought another mj project soon to be a full build thread haha. It has the ax15 2wd 5spd trans and I was wondering if this trans could be made into a 4wd ax15 trans since they arent that easy to find around my way cheap. If it can what needs to be done and what parts do I need?? I was thinking the rear tailhousing off of a 4wd trans but does the output shaft need to be swapped also? has anyone done this please let me know I honestly havent even looked at an ax15 in along time since Ive been doing chevys latly so I don't know what this would require. thanks alot!

No Way did I reuse that crappy carpet haha. I just leave the floor bedliner because I want to be able to wash it out easily when the truck gets muddy

What bushings are you exactly looking for?? You can just call up rock krawler and ask them. There should be a part number on the inside of the bushings for you to go by. I know for a fact that they sell bushings so I'm sure they have what you need

Well atleast thats not a bad accident. All you need is a fender and a spray. I would just get a price on a cheap fender from ebay or somewhere online for around $100 then tell the guy that you want $400 and you can just throw the fender on sparypaint it red and invest the extra cash into your MJ. Thats what I would do if you don't want to go through insurance companies. I wouldnt trust "His friend" to fix it because your just asking for trouble. Expect that exact fender hammered out filled with bondo and sprayed a red he had sitting around haha. here's a link to some miata fenders http://shop.ebay.com/items/_W0QQ_nkwZma ... ZQQ_sopZ12

HAHAHA If the truck is cheap I say buy it just because motors come and go But comanches are getting harder to find cheap! :yes: Ive got an 86 Manche with the v6. Its got 148,000 on it. It idles like crap leaks every fluid it can and the y-pipe has a crack in it so its noisy. I treat the truck like crap! I mean I have my foot to the floor from Point A to Point B still under 45mph :headpop: . I bought it with 145,000 and Have yet to change the oil because it leaks enough to where When I top it off its all fresh oil :rotf: The motor is the worst on gas even when you don't have your foot into it. I have proof of 2 rebuilds on this motor with the book of paper work the fella I bought it from gave me. I don't really care if it blows up tomorrow even though it is my daily driver :yes: Because the sooner it blows the sooner the v8 gets stuffed in there.

Wow I totally spaced on the backspacing/Wheel thing haha. Thanks alot for the picture Pete it deffiently sums up all of my questions haha. Now I gotta go out and buy them there fancy axles :brows: haha.

Yea I need it to be anyways I'm runnin a sbc with a turbo350 trans so and my driveshaft will be goin on the passenger side.

Hey guys I'm lookin at throwing a set of chevy full width axles in my mj from a 80s suburban. I don't have the axles yet so don't know the width so I was wondering if anyone on here has delt with these in an mj before? The axles are a dana 44 front and a 14bolt rear. Are they to wide like will there be 12" of extra stickin out on each side?? hahaha :rotfl2: The mj is soon to be sbc powered so the chevy axles are sorta needed at this point haha. Any info or thoughts??? thanks Alot -Jon

my god there is some work and money into that bad boy. thats a piece of art

Thanks for the good words. I sprayed the por15 in the tight spaces like inside the rails and I painted it with a brush on the easy to get to parts. Ive never put fiberglass in my por15. I really don't see a reason to???? Just would make the floor rougher hahaha. Theres many special ways you can inhance por15 but II usually just use it as is. The most ive ever done was thined it out.

This isnt my first circus ride guys haha been messing around with lifted trucks and hot rods for a while. Lots of good info guys thank you. I'm gunna be stuffing her with a v8 sbc :fs1: I know alot are not for this but its mine haha. Itll be getting a dana 44 front and a dana 60 rear. Tom woods shafts most likly. With the tire size I'm thinking from 38-40s :nuts: I will be making the unibody a little stronger lol. I'm just collecting parts as of right now and getting everything ready for the soon coming lift, since this truck is my daily driver right now. -Jon

OK thanks sorry I didnt clear it up I was meaning front springs. Pete I'm totally going to do the soa with say a 4" rear lift spring also and I was wondering what I could get for the front. Ok That helps Ill prolly go with the 8" SJ coil and a jks adj spacer, since I'm not a rustys fan. Thanks Jon

Hey guys I'm looking to do a big lift on my MJ and I was wondering who sells the tallest springs out there and where can I buy them? I know, I know, 6.5" Is tall enought but for me Ive owned plenty of jeeps with 6" lifts and Its just not big enough for me. If anyone has any info please let me know thanks Jon

Ohh man wtf!! You totally just ruined my laptop by making me drool all over it :fs1: :bowdown: You my friend know how to step outside of this comanche box that most of the others are in. I can't wait to see this one done and hell as long as its built right screw what others say.

Oh yes I por15 the insided of the rails as best as i could by loadin my airbrush with por15 and spary as far as I could back and forth on the the inner rails. I also coated the whole under belly with por15 after I used the seam sealer then I rubberized under coated the whole underneith of the truck. So yes shes protected fully. -Jon
