pure clearence without resorting to huge tires AND gear reduction for free

anyone use them?

AFAIK you don't "need" to resurface a flywheel unless is scratched or too bent, as long as it is straight and smooth, it works

do 4.7 WJs ever came with a diff other than dana 44a? a friends WJ (the once my MJ had to tow after its ecu blew up) but is not aluminum...

i know but without the real thing at hand, i could only share my experiences with it, my frustratd plans...if only i could find a 4 cylinder, 4 speed, 2wd, bare bones, it could be my new fresh canvas... or a metric ton btw is still in the county yard, and probably will stay there for a long time

update is gone, some idiot crashed on it while it was parked, total loss, i got the equivalent to $1,200 dollars as compensation... adios vaquero i have no comanche now i have nothing more to share here

It all comes down to the relative movement between the AXLE vs the FRAME, due the way the suspension works when the axle goes up/down the frame moves left/right what keeps the axle centered with the frame? the control arms and the pannhard rod, start by checking those.

any XJ after 97 will have the chrysler 8.25 29 splines, almost as good as a dana 44, same width, lug pattern, easy to find and relatively cheap. cons - drums, requires some fabrication

i would agree if the comanche donor subframe is rotten beyond saving. destroying a good MJ to make a frankenstein is a sin

Factory Non AC... unscrew it, if it woobles replace the bearing

great on paper it´s been currently made in saltillo? a few hours from where i live

how about getting one that already is 4x4? depending on the donor´s year and drivetrain it may be either a plug n play swap or a pain in the @$$

install an oil catch can, even a cheap one will do the job

how much is the gallon in your area?

by fluctution you mean the needle moves between those values non stop? you can see the needel moving? if so maybe the sender is bad
