TRUCK INFO: 1987 JEEP COMANCHE SPORTRUCK 2WD AUTOMATIC 4.0 86,000 MILES What’s up guys it’s been a little while. Had a quick question, here lately when I’ve been driving the Comanche, during somewhat low/moderate speed, My truck will seem like it is searching for the right gear. It will keep dropping down a gear, back up a gear, down a gear then Back up. It happens mostly when I hold a steady throttle position at normal speed. Anyone have any idea? Or of had this issue?

1987 / 2wd / 4.0 Comanche Towing 3000Lbs
FLETCH14519 replied to FLETCH14519's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Not sure on the tongue weight, after using a tongue weight calculator, may be between 167lbs to 300 max......that's a wide range guess. It's a 18ft fiberglass cuddy cabin boat -
I have a 1987 2wd 4.0 automatic sportruck. (Only modificationsare 15" Aluminum wheels,235/75R15 tires, hellwig 1000lbs helper springs, and custom made hitch from "Krustyballer" , AW4 tranny (from the looks of it), Dana 35 rear The shortest trip I would have to pull the boat is 5miles, furthest would be 30Miles. Looking at purchasing a boat, and max weight with trailer, boat (with full tank of gas), engine weight, and tackle weight is spot on at 3000 lbs. I have a 2004 Grand Cherokee 4.7L that will pull the boat with no issues. Just was wondering about the MJ.

87 4.0 Vacuum Harness
FLETCH14519 replied to FLETCH14519's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Okay sounds good. Thank you -
I was searching around to find a good part number for the front and rear vacuum line harness for my 87 4.0 Comanche. From what I found, the 715-1366 and 715-1367 (NAPA NUMBERS) will not work with the 87's due to certain hoses not reaching or lining up? Does anyone know a good part number for the 87's Vacuum line assembly (front and rear)? I did find a good CROWN P#: 53004375 , but looking for the other half for the full assembly.

Truck has a jolting symptom while driving?
FLETCH14519 replied to FLETCH14519's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I happened to find this today, this went to the EGR valve that has the plug in the line.@Cruiser54 -

FLETCH14519 replied to FLETCH14519's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Off the wall question,is it possible the jolting could be a torque converter? The jolting seems to go away when I apply the breaks a little while going about 70-75mph. Just throwing it out there -

I can wiggle this piece on top the manifold. Should this have any movement or be completely sealed and no movement -

That print out is great. Thank you. Why would you think they would do that at curiosity? Shouldn't that be connected? Always remember this: Genius has it's limits, but stupidity knows no bounds..... So is it possible this jolting is due to the hose not being hooked up to the EGR valve -

FLETCH14519 replied to FLETCH14519's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Is there anything that needs to be hooked up here? I only ask because I found this line just hanging in the engine bay near it, with a plug in it. Which connects here -

Is there supposed to be something connected here on the connector stem or no? Nothing was hooked up once I removed it -

FLETCH14519 replied to FLETCH14519's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Lol yes sir. 82,000 miles, no rust, solid all around. Just purchased it about a month ago. So getting the hang of this MJ thing. -
Just the switch, I don't need the panel really. I have the spare knock outs (I guess that's what you call it) TO the left and right of the bottom of the steering wheel. So I am assuming they just pop out, and I can insert the factory switch there from what it looks like. If you wanna show me a picture of the panel that is fine too. I may be interested in it as well. But definitely the switch.

Just seeing if anyone has a switch for fog lights. Mopar #: 56000025-M. Looking for fog lights too as a bonus if anyone has any.

Awesome write up, I will go through and check these items this week/weekend. Thanks for the quick response -
I am a recent owner of a 1987, 2wd, 4.0, MJ. The truck has 82,000 Miles on her, and I have noticed when I run around 65-75MPH the truck gets a slight jerking feeling. Almost feeling like a misfire on the engine, but not. It seems to mainly do it at high speeds, low rpm while going up a hill, or putting alil more strain on the engine. Now I have noticed if I give it some gas, the truck doesn't really jolt, only if I gradually hit the gas and ease into it at high speeds. Here is a list of things I replaced when I bought the truck.... - NEW PLUGS - NEW WIRES - DISTRIBUTER CAP - ROTOR - AIR FILTER - CLEANED THROTTLE BODY - CHANGED OIL AND FILTER
