Can Spell Comanche

Can Spell Comanche (2/11)

  1. I think it is, not too worried though, was able to run out to and around King of the Hammers without the efan comming on. I replaced it with a 190* (thats what was recommended but if i should get something different let me know) almost as soon as i got the truck cause it was stuck closed
  2. All ive had it in recently is stop and go around town so ill take it out soon and see if it drops on the highway
  3. how does this help the O/P? i wouldn't consider this over heating, it is close though. do you have an electric fan? what temp of thermostat did you throw in?. how is the condition of your temp sensor? it could be giving a false reading have you pressure washed your radiator? I have my e fan hardwired right now so its always running (long story about compressor issues) and the thermostat is a 190 with a new temp sensor to go with the XJ dash
  4. Would a water pump help anything? My fan clutch is perfectly fine and thats about the only thing left.
  5. Its slightly over 210 and never really goes past the point its at. Is that considered overheating? And if it is, is it enough to worry about or is it not that bad? P.S. Ive already replaced the thermostat and flushed the system refilled and bled it completely.
  6. Given that theres a little over 2 inches engaged under normal load id say no less than a half inch. I don't have that much travel
  7. How much is engaging the tail shaft? I agree with the rocket -- that looks WAY short to me.I couldn't tell you off the top of my headEDIT: went and checked, its got plenty of room to play.
  8. I noticed that but one of my mechanic buddies said itd be fine...ill have to have some one else take a look and tell me. Cause i just had a shop custom make that one
  9. Sorry I'm just now getting to update, finals have been crazy. Anyways I ended up with 0 issue (apart from going out to buy tools) and went ahead and got new rotors and wheel bearings just to be safe. Got the sway bar links that were suggested in a different thread and they fit like a glove, all thats left now is for the vacuum harness to come in and she'll be ready to tear something up - legally of course :thumbsup: P.S. I got a new Rubicon Express track bar as well, I'm just waiting for some time to get it on.
  10. I was under the impression it did. My bad. Ill be replacing it anyway though because its leaking
  11. And the only seal I need is a rear main right?
  12. So I'll be tackling that conversion this Saturday (will post pics in this thread after) and was wondering before I do it if theres any last minute tips I need, also what all seals do I need? I'm generally green when it comes to drivelines but its still a simple swap. Thanks! Will keep yall updated.
  13. I plan on replacing it when I do my 4x4 conversion next weekend. I'll do fine without it til then and when doing the conversion I'm gonna have my buddy who's helping me (he has had more than his fair share of Jeeps in his 40 years of mechanic-ing) take a good look at everything and tell me what I might be glancing over and what needs replacement. Thanks for all the input!
  14. Alright I'll order those up. Update though after driving around without the sway bar I'm still getting wobble so I'll have to do some more troubleshooting.
  15. So I got some bump steer the other day (hitting a bump and getting death wobble) and decided to look under there and see what was up. Everything was tight and the only bushing that was in question was my passenger side UCA but it still wasn't bad. Then I saw this...and wondered if it could be the culprit So what do I need? The PO lifted it 3.5 inches and said he did everything to get it back to stock geometry, did he forget the extended links? Or do you not need them for a comanche? Also is this even a stock sway bar? It didn't seem like it to me just because of how much of an awkward position it was in and the fact that the bolt in picture 3 wouldn't tighten any more and seemed forced. Thanks
