Strokermjcomanche

If mvusse doesn't pan out I have a couple leafs outside . Pretty sure there in good shape and will check in the morning as it's dark now . I know the've been rebuilt at one time . Let me know .

Thanks Incommando . I just picked one up , but wouldn't mind having another for my other truck . Daytons a bit far away though are you getting rid of it soon ? What size tire is it? Thanks again .

Went to the local jy today and picked up a temporary full size spare off of the only mj there . $25 not the most I've spent there lol . Thanks guys .

No. I was just trying to figure out a way to incorporate the amber lenses in the factory tail lights . I've already heard of people separating the turns and brake lights on this forum . Figured it would help with the 97+ conversion as those and even the older xjs have independent turns and brake lights .I'm hoping that there are some tail lights that have holes and cracks in them that can be repurposed for this .As I'm sure not too many people would want to cut up perfectly good tail lights . Thanks keyav8r

I bought the plastic at a local business called Bakers plastics and it's literally 5 minutes down the road. I also want to thank Hornbrod for posting the pictures for me .

I knew that the wiring was going to be another hurdle to jump . And you are correct it is acrylic amber plastic . I paid $5 for a section 2 5/8 width by 4'length . The acrylic was easy to bend with a heat gun and no bubbles or imperfections surfaced . I backed the clear amber plastic with prizm ? plastic that is used for ceiling fixtures . Thanks Eagle .

I'm sure if you throw trash in there vehicle they'd understand your frustration .

Get yourself a guard dog for the bed . I agree my truck is not a garbage can !!

Is that column out of a yj? Or did you swap the indicator / center section ?

So this morning I'm sitting around looking on here and a guy from Stockholm said he needs amber turn signal to pass inspection . I had this busted tail light and figured Id see what I could come up with . $20 bucks in materials and these are what I came up with . Pictures to come in a bit .So what do you guys think? Any improvements / downsides you can think of ? Image Not Found Image Not Found

What brand oil pumps are you buying ? I have a melling high volume pump in my stroker and having the same issue . It has less than 2k on it . I still have my old one that I took out before I built the stroker that you can have for shipping costs ,It had good pressure . But when I tackle mine and go through all that work I wouldn't want to put a used oil pump in . It's a 4.0 right ?

The 96 xj isn't a column shift .it should be the column with the airbag in the steering wheel Your mj has a column shift right?so it won't work You can change the column and also make it a floor shift but you would need everything out of a pre 95 xj . It's probably easier to get a column or fix the one you've got IMO .

Nice truck . If you need amber lenses I can think of two ways to do it . They both involve getting another set of comanche tail lights . 1. Drill a hole in the turn signal lens and put an amber led light that also has the 2057 bulb base . 2 . Get a amber repair lens at your local parts store (if locally available) use a dremel and graft it into the tail lens . Post a question in the tech forum for more responses from other members . They are very helpful .

I perfectly understand . What about putting something else in like an xj axle ? Or an explorer axle? You'd have to put new spring perches etc ..

There was also the Comanche X and the street Comanche

Youngstown zip is 44509

^^that except for the wiring harness/plug.

Got a pic of that tail light ? Sweet .

It was nice meeting all of you also. It's good to put faces with screen names .

Glad to see you got the dust cap off. Since you said it was your first time doing brakes I'm just asking if you packed the new bearings with grease ? Smearing it over the bearings won't do the job .I see you have the fsm , just making sure.

I'll buy your old phone lol.

I always appreciate everyones help . But it helps when they answer what I ask lol. I crack myself up .

I understand . It's not going anywhere for a while .

I'm in Ohio and it's a 4 1/2 hour drive . is it worth going for one day ? Who else is going?
