Comanche Addict (5/11)

  1. don't know what I'm doing wrong, hopefully works this time.
  2. My AX15 was fine to 500WHP. My vote is for a supercharger, with a stockish cam. Premium fuel, stock like drive ability with a ton of power. A big cam, or heads means less drivability typically. Premium fuel, lose some drivability for only somewhat more power.. Your stock valvetrain with some springs and trunnions will be fine to 7000RPM. Take it from me, whose done all the different combos and now is building a daily supercharged truck with a small cam. Selling all the big cam and turbo trucks I have built.
  3. Back in the workshop, not sure how much Ill get done since I may be moving in the next few months, but its here for now.
  4. Updated listing, NLA unfortunately
  5. Sweet, same bracket kit I just had modified mine for fitment. Looks like you are in good shape.
  6. Mainly brackets, but sliders don’t hurt to have just in case
  7. It my little gauge project wrapped up for the time being. Undecided if I'm going to use all gauges, or some form of digital gauge system. But either way I’ve got the geometry nailed down on the fitment and mounting, adjusting the inside contents is easy to finish later. The white plastic is just cheap prototyping stuff.
  8. Probably the same kit I went with from ICT. If so, the power steering pulley will be too close to the fitting on the steering gearbox. Dirty Dingo makes a smaller pulleys that works great. Also the OEM steering reservoir will need some creative mounting, I flattened the bracket and squeezed it in the same area just rotated. This photo is old and has different belt routing, but you see what I mean about the steering pulley.
  9. I am doing a rebuild on my Comanche and have a few specific parts in mind: -3 Piece slider window (Do not want 4 piece) -Vinyl Floor without tears -Seat Brackets (may get new ones if needed) -Set of 4 or 5 Turbine rims -OEM rear bumper would be cool if you have a dent/rust free one.
  10. I don't, but I'm just cheap in that sense, I'm sure some form of chemical would help even more, Maybe Vinegar or some lightweight acid.
  11. 99% of the 20+ XJ/MJ's ive owned have had much better cooling performance for less than $40... If you wash/backwash/wash the radiator, engine, and heater core (all separately/individually so you don't move contaminents) then install a new fan clutch I can almost guarantee you'll have a cool running jeep. The amount of crud that comes out with the wash and backwashing of the system is really impressive. Then the fan clutch thats likely never been replaced makes a huge radiator efficiency difference. just my 2c, I do this service on every Jeep thats comes thru my possession and it almost always makes it run cooler/properly. Edit to add: The mech fan with a proper working fan clutch or grand cherokee clutch will almost always out perform an electric fan, or two. Always run the mech fan unless you can't for some reason.
  12. Its too hot to be working outside, so I am thinking ahead at some of the luxury items I want to do. Starting with the gauges/ECU....I don't want to run two ECU's and two harnesses to retain the jeep gauges. So I decided if I am doing custom gauges, I want to solve a few issues with one elegant solution. here's my new music, gauges, navigation, and telemetry device all in one, thanks to an old iphone lying in a random drawer in the house lol. The only two things the ECU won't be able to give readouts on is the fuel gauge and oil pressure, hence the two smaller gauges outside the cluster. This will drop in the 97+ dash and fit like factory, thanks to a scan from @boxyjeep
  13. Got some tailgate brackets and speaker boxes on the way from @boxyjeep Posted a handful of items in the classifieds that I won't be needing for my current projects. In the meantime, I sorted thru what I am keeping and moved it all into safe keeping for the time being...I need to finish my turbo silverado before I can begin working on the Comanche's. here’s some current photos:
  14. They were from a 3-4’’ Lift XJ kit. Thats all I know
