Hey again, Thanks for the tips. Will be shortly doing all maintenance stuff on the Renix motor, and the drive line. Will be swapping to 4WD before doing some of it, because the rear main seal leaks, as well as a few other places, and will be doing a light reseal, and a cleaning of the motor while most of it is out to make it easier. Car is VERY rust free, and why I am so excited to start. The truck will be stock until summer time, where I will be doing the lift and such. Until then, I will be working out bugs/enjoying the stock mileage while I can :rotf: . Brakes definitely could use the later model mod, that will be one of the first things I do. Any other convenient mods that are recommended? Here are some pictures of the car:

Hey Everyone! Just bought my first Jeep, a 1990 Comanche 2WD 5 Speed eliminator. Not liking the 2WD part, and I'm planning on swapping that out as soon as possible. Future plans include a Froehlich 3 link long arm setup in front, with 3.5" metalcloak dual rate springs. Not sure on the rear, either hellcreek 3" and a ironfab4x4 adjustable shackle, or a rustys 4" spring, but I haven't heard much good about his springs, or anything for that matter. I decided to make a thread, in order to ask any questions I may run into. To start off, I would like to know if I need to brace my frame with a long arm kit. I understand that the MJ has a stronger frame, but if it will EVENTUALLY wear out, I'd like to brace it now and save myself the ache later. Mostly because the Froehlich kit requires welding onto the frame for the LCAs and UCA brackets. Any advice would be appreciated. When this build is done, I'm hoping to have a rear locker(not auto), a front locker(maybe auto), winch and bumpers front & rear, a ~4 inch lift, on 33x12.5/15 tires. I realize this will limit my uptravel, but I do NOT plan on trimming. Just running tube fenders. Shooting for ~4" of up travel, and I will be content with what I have. I was thinking 31s, but I think I like the look of a little more meat. Final gears will be 4.10s as well, since this is still going to be a daily driver. Any tips? Thanks, Francesco Also, how does one upload pictures on this site? Never done a build thread before, only 18 and this is just my second car! Thanks again guys
