Strokermjcomanche

Here is a IAC tester I thought was pretty cool . Is it any good Cruiser ? I also got some DRB 2 misc peices / parts / cartridges .

Here is Some of what I already got today.

My friend that works at a local Jeep dealership told me about this dealership (Barnett Jeep in Greenville Pa ) closing and selling / scraping there inventory that hasn't yet been sold . I went up this morning and bought quite a bit of both new and used parts . They opened in 1962 and closed in April of this year . They need to be out by the end of the month so they are basically throwing stuff away and it's been picked over pretty good . I'm going to try to go again tommorow but I have a job interview at 10 am . If you need something give me part numbers and I can see if it's there . He does not have everything itemized so the only way is to look . Here are some pics I took of what's left , no sheet metal or rather large items are left .

I talked to the product manager at Omix Ada at Bantams Jeep Festival last weekend where they had 7 completely restored vehicles on display . I asked him about reproducing some Comanche specific parts like fuel sending units , tail lights, cab corners , rocker panels and rear bumpers . He said there was not a big enough demand or market to remake parts for the Comanche . He did however say he would talk about remaking the fuel sending unit and if sales were good maybe they would consider doing more parts . He said don't get your hopes up but he would TRY .

I know some people up here in the northeast would buy one at $150 plus shipping . It seems that everyone decides to hit my truck(s) in the rear so I'll be holding on to my nos bumpers .

Get yourself a Haynes / chilton or full service manual (FSM ) , a very good investment and you don't have to wait on answers .

Here is how the bulbs are held in .,

^^ this . See if the head is an improved TUPY head , which is stamped on the top of the head beneath the valve cover by the 3rd cylinder . Compression and leak down test would be what I did next .

What's the compression in all the cylinders ? Are you losing any antifreeze , or is it mixing with the oil ?

Yeah, I know, I have one of each. My bad. No worries . It's been that long since I changed the oil in the XJ........you've reminded me. Actually, I use 5qts and 1qt Lucas......that's how that statement came out wrong. I never make mistakes , hahaha . I understand

Yeah, I know, I have one of each. My bad. No worries .

The 4.0 has 6 qts of capacity .

I was told my melling high volume pump would not clear oil pan without messaging the pan a bit for clearance . Never had any issues , but it is bigger than the stock pump .

I have a NOS drivers side tail light that I'd like to trade for / buy a NOS passenger tail light . I know it's a long shot but I've got to ask . I'd even pay shipping both ways if you have one to trade . Here's a picture of mine .

I'm using my iPhone4 , so whatever comes installed and yes it is accepting cookies . Thanks for the help Pete . Seems to be working again , strange .

When I posted them they did not appear . Now they are here , I don't get it either . When I try to select the link on photobucket to copy so I can paste on here it says "try again later " and has for roughly three days . I really thought I had this down pat .

Now the pictures aren't working , photobucket has been telling me to try again later , but this has been days that it hasn't worked .

I have a set on mine with 225/75/15 tires and if anything it handles better .
