Looks good. Let me know how the bumps feel. and in my area the cops going to get you for no license plate light.

3.89 my way. Its the coming of all. Buy some bread while you fillup. Get some extras cans filled up and stored liquid gold.

Low rider oh man. always interesting to see these get slammed vs jacked. Welcome back to the addiction.

Fenders just order and replace. Hit and miss on fitment. Hinge setup i have seen is a worthy upgrade opportunity. Welcome back to the nuts and bolts game.

So have good extra tps. finally got to fixen the trac bar. So my understanding is that its best to have equal length trac bar to draglink so I'm currently at 34.5" which is with replaceing the hiem on my old trac bar as it was 34". For some reason the last time i tried to fix it I ended up with a 32.5" length. so with that i have been battling steering issue's for a bit now and wandering all over, and some would say taking the smooth out of the road. so after fixing the trac bar and getting yelled at by the neighbors for my midnight repair as I have a planned trip this weekend, i had to wait till morning to fix what I noticed to be my stalling and starting issue. Which was my exhaust was leaking at the gasket on the down pipe to header connection. So today cut the bolts, installed new and what a difference. Good starting and little more pep in my step. now after a quick test drive it seems to go stright as it should, but now I can only get half turn to the right and full 2 turns to the left....so me thinks its time to adjust the drag link but dosent that take me back to the beginning of the issue? Umm adjust it and see. Due for new heim steering setup soon for sure. I'm growing tired of the tierod end nuts not breaking free and the shaft just spinning. pic is of where my steering wheel is on point, tires not so much.

Very cool. never seen a purple one and it looks great. Thanks for sharing.

Yet the benefits of being able to rebuild. you planning to sell it yet?

Are you able to see those land at all? Those things are huge.

In the connection points on the frame and axles. Leaf springs have rubber busings where bolts on. Control arms also contain bushings. Shocks has some bushings as well, however could be the shaft itself squeaking as it goes up and down being dried out. You also have squeaker warning when its about time to change brake pads. trac bar at the axle side can also be worn. Ball joints have even squeaked warnings before failure. Best to go ahead and grease everything you can as its been said for sure. maybe jump up and down on it and shake it all about and perhaps help pinpoint it more accurately. Could just be the squirrels under the hood. Feed them.

Trace the tps wire back to it then I gather... Hows the fluid look? Drop the pan on the trans at all?

Here we go again..tps ftw... just throw parts at it I say, surly it shall run for all the rest of her days!!

Sweetness, i had to use water to get me home from the swamp. But I atleast use coffee filter to get the alge mostly out. Left some in and its alot quieter now.

i would buy it but to scared to scratch the pretty off.

Yes

Good deal. Sometimes its just a matter of looking at things closer and understanding how things are suppose to work. Good job figuring it out.

Never count out worn rubber bushings as well that can be found on most suspension components. Good luck. few us understand finding a squeak or a rattle source on these comanches.

I'm awaiting another tps to show up from Amazon to replace mine for the 1st time this year. think it was 4 times I swapped the tps out. Swap it out and carry an extra one.

Worn synchronization possibly as well...

Leaf packs or shock my first thought.

@89eliminatoranother red one.

Sweetness. Gotta love them barn finds. Thanks for sharing.

Very insightful, thanks for sharing.

Oh snap.

Fixin to swap a 99 intake on myself, looking for details before I go ahead and tear things apart. Be also replacing power steering system as well for a tapped hydo assit setup. Never go wrong with any extra ponies me thinks.
