Comanche Fan

Comanche Fan (3/11)

  1. Hey I own your MJ build now, I would like to talk to you about a few things. Please reach out! ThanksĀ 

  2. Thanks i don't know why i couldnt find the website
  3. Thanks for the help, i have been looking for the font for years
  4. Hi i have been looking for a website that has the stickers for the doors and tailgate a while a go i restored my comanche and had put the comanche decals with the modernized font like the 2000 cherokees, does anyone has a link for it?
  5. ok.. thank you... I'm going to check on that... might be missing the hose... cuz i have not seen that.... might have the nipple up there alll clogged up... thank you
  6. ok.... i did not know this... where should it be? would you out a picture of it
  7. Hi. I have modified my MJ to a ZJ brake conversion. This was done 2 years ago... however i have had problems since the beginning. My problem is that it leaks oil from right side... at some point it leaked from both sides... however my major problem is right side... i have changed bearings and seals several times with no change on right side at all... i am at the point to rechange to drums or a new differential... do anybody have an advice or opinion on what i should do or what i might be doing wrong. PD i am using the spacer needed from teraflex to fill the space. So i got that covered. Thanks
  8. thanks to all... I am running an optima yellow top battery, and I am reading from gauge on cluster and directly from battery... and they both are pretty consistent on the numbers... I am running a 400 watts amp for subwofer, a 350 watts amp for the speakers (which , pair of hella 700ff lights that I don't turn on just once in a while, a couple of 4 inch fog lights, just like the ones from the wrangler (don't remember wattage but around 100 watts), and the spec-d tuning headlights which have H7 light bulbs at 55 watts each, thats 110 watts total... leds, amber turn lights, I am really not running that excessive accesories. Electric fans, the left is the OEM from the 2000 cherokee, and the one that replaced the clutch fan is a Zirgo electric fan (ZFB16S - 16" Zirgo 3000 fCFM High Performance Blu Cooling Fan), both running on relays with 10 gauge wire and everything, professionally installed. btw, I think I have the 117 amp alternator from the 2000 jeep cherokee xj donor, at least thats the one I remember putting with the exchange of parts. I am going to try the upgrading of the cables and see what is happening. thanks
  9. I heard of the 136 amp.... and if that does it for you it should do for me, I do have dual electric fans, h7 headlights, sound system, and it is not like mine is dying is just something that I think I would need to upgrade some day near. and came a cross that 170 amp alternator on ebay but I have my doubts.. some reviews say it is great, others it sucks... btw you really are active on this boards hornbrod thanks a lot, its nice to have someone that gives advice actively over here. it is well appreciated.
  10. Has anyoone here used a powermaster alternator? I am thinking of getting a high output alternator and this is the one I came across on ebay that outputs 170 amps with power and 110 and idle... i think is better than those 90/60 or 117/80 out there... I am not sure which one I have, but at power my truck shows 14 volts, and idle it lowers to 12.5 or something close to that. So, i am guessing this could be a good functional upgrade. has anyone of you used this one, or have a better alternator I could use? my truck is a 2000 jeep comanche ( i did the 2000 swap from a jeep cherokee, lol; so any upgrades have to be for a 2000 jeep 4.0l engine, harness, ecu, etc
  11. lol.... thats how I bought the truck, It did not came with it and with the lift it would have not fit anyways... I was in the process of making a new one, but just had a friend put some zip ties so that the valve perfoms as it was supposed to work without load. But in the near future and now with the new rear disc brake conversion I am going to take it out, just have to find the time to do the job. lol...
  12. well I am pretty sure it is a d44, I have gotten all sort of parts for it showing D44 on the listing of every store, and the have matched, so It would not make sense that it is not. but anyways here is the picture, also I have compared with the picture/drawing that has all the covers on it. also the new gasket for the cover was for dana44 too, so I'm pretty sure it is what i think it is.

  13. here is the pics of the differentials rear dana 44 fron dana 30 I know, it is a little messy down there, lol.
  14. ok, so the truck is finished, and you guys were right, slim preload spacers where the ones to be used, the problem was the the oil seal retainers where bent and were letting the oil seal to move and making it drip, in the same time making the axle move out and in. thats why it was leaking. So I had to get new, seals, oil seal retainers, redo the axle, put everything new, and now is perfect, it does not leaks, runs smooth and it is perfect... rear disc brakes are way better than normal rear drum brakes.... now I'm debating on putting new gears... thanks a lot to you guys.
  15. ok thanks for all your answers. So with the calculations of the grimmripper web page I came to 4.17 which is either 4.10 and 4.30, as you all mention 4.30 is not made for jeeps. so I will have to change carriers and that will not make my budget. I might go 4.10. however I just did the rear disk brake conversion and it took a load on my budget, since I have to change bearings once, seals twice, oil seal retainers twice, and preload spacers, etc some other things, thats why I was thinking around 400 to 500 the most. I think I can do that in a good shop, since I leave in the border of USA and Mexico and there are good shops that if you bring the parts they will change anything for low cost labor. thats why I think I can do this with a low budget. on the other hand, 4.10 for rear dana 44 could be done as you say, but as the dana 30 I think I saw some on ebay, I just have to find a good quality one on there. SO in the end, I might go 4.10 ust to come close to "stock" to get a better punch from the truck and a little better mileage of gas if not the same but better acceleration. I will track down the parts, and get you guys pictures of the differentials so I can get more advice on this. thanks a lot to everyone for now. I will keep you posted.
