Thanks metrictonner, I will be sure to put those ideas to good use!

Dropping mine today, should've replaced the rollover rubber grommets when I put in the new tank, so gonna doit now, when I replaced the tank the old one looked like someone had cooked a brisket in it!

Aggressive looking now! Man I gotta get some bigger sneakers on mine.

What a transformation!

First we've seen the sunrise in awhile! So enjoy my Comanche Dawn!

Yes. PM sent.

Ain't nobody got time fo dat

I like it Rockfrog! What would be the best way to do that and at which vacuum line? dribble it in before starting and then reconnect the line? Seriously at a loss as to where and how? Oh and how much?

4 days, 4 trips to town, 120 miles zero issues! Except that my street Cred is highly suspect rockin 215's, gotta find some dough and put some Ba!!s under this fun truck!

So I'm off to borrow a python and a gopro camera and some duct tape...

Ouch! Gettin old must suck...

Pics please.

Thank you 91. Is a crack going to be quite evident or could I miss it?

Well now that I have the 88 4.0 MJ on the road with the new cat/muffler, I hear the ticketty tick of an exhaust manifold leak. What should my next move be? Gasket? Or what is the method for finding the leak or crack? If it turns out to be the Mani what is the most opted for manifold or header? And also what all has to come off to replace?

LOL, she is not a huge fan of the mj, She said when it gets a paint job she will like it a lot more. So she will prob be happy not ride in it right now....... WOMEN THEY JUST don't GET IT! If that's all it takes I might just leave my rust...

Somebody get me a mop! i'm standin in a pool o'drool! oh and keep liftin and eventually she won't have to ride with you at all! Bless her heart...

I'll check it.

Alright so on the temp unit subject; I had all the math they offered back in high school, I'm talkin elementary analysis, calculus AP, the whole meal deal, there was no more math available at any level! but this temp gauge has me perplexed! anyone wanna tell me what this needle reading is? I've got 110 degrees below 210 to split and 50 degrees above, huh? It has been runnin right at that midway mark between 100-210. My wife says don't worry about it. I replied that it's different than her in the kitchen when the smoke alarm goes off and she says "suppers ready".

Thanks Zebvance, been a learnin process. My wife and I own a small business in downtown Canton and we count on the First Monday Trade Days crowd showin up every month. If your back thru sometime look us up! www.cantondishbarn.com we are open all month, not just 1st Monday. We've got great friends in Giddings that we get down to see occasionally. Love it down there as well!

First trip to town went smooth. No troubles. Still feel like the jeep is Runnin hotter than the gauge says. Gauge fluctuates between 155-160. I had replaced the stat with a Napa 195. Thinkin I might need a new temp sending doomajig. Tranny seems to have zero issues barring the obvious puking all over itself. I filled the gas tank when I reached the first station in town and when I reached my destination I could smell some gas. I see a tank drop in my future. When I replaced the old tank I reused the rollover grommets on top from the old tank and they must not be sealing. Still a great first run and the trip home was just as uneventful. 32 miles. Perfect!

So it's been awhile. Finally a little hands on time with the Chief. Put a cat/ muffler from autozone under neath, certainly not much voice, but that's not something I desire anymore. The old tint film came off beautifully with razor blade and windex. Glad I didn't have to get back into those doors to replace the glass! Brakes are holding but still need a full bleed. The spare that was in the back of the cherokee is a 215/75r15 and a perfect match that will get me on the road. Get that swapped onto the right rim today when I get to town- in my MJ!!! Yep it's gonna make its first trip this morning! Took the wife and biddy little down the road in it last night about 3-4 miles, they were stoked as much as I was!

There is only 1 thing wrong with this ol' world... People!

Here's mine: http://comancheclub.com/topic/44165-new-texas-member-with-88-chief-just-acquired/page-3

Just stuck the chrome grill and bezels off my 92 XJ onto the 88 MJ. There are 2 tabs on the back of the bezels that have to be cut off/ground down in order for the fitment to be right. Then drill 2 new mounting holes in the body to accept the new location for screws to secure the bezel. No sweat. Soon as you hold the 92 chrome in place you'll see what needs to happen.

The pieces are falling into place!
