  1. I suppose I could've reskinned the whole roof, but I just patched it in from a scrap Cherokee I had.
  2. Pulled it outside after getting the axle in. Just a little high in the back eh?
  3. I used 2x4 tube trimmed down to make a new cab mount to the frame on both sides.
  4. I didn't get pictures of it, but I used 3x3 tube slid into the Cherokee to start out the new frame. Then set the cab on, and kept trimming the roof/rockers until I had an equal door gap at the back on each side.
  5. Hello everyone! It's been quite awhile. I used to browse years ago when I first got my Comanche. I drove it for several years and it got parked. I then noticed some bad frame rot one day when I was poking around it. I had originally intended to just redo the frame and put it back on the road. One thing led to another, I ended up with a Cherokee and decided to go crazy....
  6. I finally got a chance to go mess around with it today. I measured my factory and Iro's bracket. Measurements are from the flat plate that sits against the bottom of the frame. Factory bracket measures 4 3/4" to the upper holes. Iro measures 5 1/8". I called Iro and their bracket is correct, Jason said he went and measured one off the shelf. If I place a 3/8 plate for a shim between their bracket and the frame the bracket hits perfect. So I suppose I'll go this route.
  7. Thanks for all the ideas guys. I'll take all of them and study more on it when I get the chance. This has been a slow process lol.
  8. Thank you! Good to know, at least someone has had similar trouble. That was my plan to fix the problem, just wanted to make sure that idea would work lol.
  9. Hello everyone, I'm new around here as far as posting goes, but I've been lurking and learning a lot from you all! I'm currently in the middle of an SoA in the rear and doing a 5.5" lift in the front. I received my Iro Double-Shear Trackbar and bracket today. As I went to install the bracket I noticed the holes were about 1/4 to 3/8 above the holes in the uniframe. That is if the bottom bolts are tightened. Anyone ran into this before? My thoughts are to just drill new holes, unsure of how that's gonna change the geometry though. My Comanche is an '86 model if that's relavent to the issue.
