Exactly! South Louisiana, boats are everywhere.... but I'm in the company truck a lot now because gas card. I'll grab the MJ this weekend and stretch her legs a bit.

No, no, let's keep the original theme. I like that it's different!

Can't forget the sticker on my camper shell!

That worked!

Clean. Nothing more than surface rust from what I have seen.

'92 shortbed 2wd. 2.5L. Clean title. Dent in roof, otherwise the body is in good shape. Has comanche bedliner. 5spd trans. Not currently running. $1000. New Orleans

Damn, still not showing up.

Can you repost the picture?

Damn, I could use this but it's a haul from S. Louisiana to SC.

Yup, New Orlean LouisianA. All good. I've got a small block 283 and some ideas for this gal if somebody doesn't take her off of my hands soon....

Dang....some of the OGs who were old when I started prowling in 2014. Chico, I got a '92 shortbed, 2WD, 4 banger that needs a home down here in NOLA. She's a project but not rusty.

Honestly, not that bad. You already have a plasma cutter and MIG. Get a small cutoff tool (like 3" cutoff or a regular 4" grinder with cutoff wheels and a dremel for the nitty gritty stuff. Cut out areas that are more or less rectangular while the truck is on jack stands (take as much load off of that area before you start cutting). Remove inner fenders and other stuff that may be in the way. Use cardboard (beer boxes work great!) and a sharpie and scissors to make templates for each piece you cut out. Doing it in bigger pieces is better, but I've patchworked several frames and unibodies (XJ and MJ) with good success. Make sure that where you're welding to is solid metal. If it's thin/rusty/iffy....it's gonna suck to weld to. Also, clean the area as best you can with a wire wheel before welding....clean steel is easy to weld to, dirty steel is not. Lastly, youtube is your friend. Look for "rusty frame repair" videos. You can weld in heavier metal to the thin unibody. Lots of people have done this with good success. Good Luck!

No, but pull-a-part has several 4x4 cherokees we can go snag one from. The NP231 is pretty easy to find around here.

That 2wd AX-15 isn't still available by chance is it?

I'm in Atlanta often to visit friends and family. Maybe we can work something out.

I've got a TruTrac in my nova with a GM 10 bolt.....that thing is AWESOME for racing!

I've got a shop in Harvey, we can do it in a weekend if you want. Even if I'm not getting the 2wd transmission, my shop is open to other Comanche owners. I think I even have a spare AX-15 crossmember laying around somewhere.

I don't know, the holes in the wall of my last shop made me chuckle after I calmed down....how you gonna let an old truck, made by Mopar of all people, get the best of you?

Looking for a 2WD AX-15, can trade a 4x4 AX-15 for it or buy outright. Located in NOLA but can drive to meet in a pretty wide radius.

You ever find one? I've got a 4wd AX-15 I would trade for a 2wd AX-15

Where are you located? I've got some fender flares I was holding on to.

Glad ya got it sorted. In the age of FI and even direct injection, we forget that there are other contributors to problems!

Following, would take a set for my '92.

I had issues with housing clearance with the thick gears and when I called Eaton they said it was not uncommon and they don't recommend thick gearsets. Had similar issues with my aussie locker up front in the Dana 30 and had to purchase a new carrier for standard thickness gear and new gears for front and rear (4.10:1, my MJ came stock with 3.07:1).
