PCO6

I got mine at www.jeepsticker.com . They have the Eliminator stickers too.

Thanks and yes, it was fun. I just picked up a factory roll bar and am thinking of a way to add a temporary rear rack for when I want to take my kayaks. "Should work".

Not exactly high tech but a fast and fun project. Yesterday I cut, drilled, filed, painted, etc. some metal pieces to tie together the kayak racks that I usually use on my trailer. it will be great for day trips without the trailer and will break down for easy storage when it's not being used. it fits in the bed nicely and is tied in by ratchet straps (not shown). All ready to go. Today we went to the annual "Lock n' Paddle" kayak/canoe event at the Peterborough, Ontario lift locks. … 1 minute video of the 2017 event …

If it helps, the 6' liner in my '88 Eliminator says "Comanche".

Our family has always owned SW's of one sort or another. One of my brothers just returned from a trip in his '66 Ford Fairlane Country Estate (woody) wagon. He and his wife left from their home in the Toronto area and took Rt. 66 to LA then up to BC and back home. He thought it would be neat to take it back to the dealership in San Jose that it was originally purchased at and get an oil change. The 20 something service manager had no idea what it was. He asked if it was a Corvair.

You're lucky that they helped you with this. The one that I frequent the most will not assist in any way. Great stuff at reasonable prices but you're on your own. A lot of the heavier items that can't be easily picked go for scrap metal.

fiatslug87 - That's quite a collection ... and a stroke of luck! Seeing those '70/'71/'71 brochures with the red CJ's on the cover brings back some memories. I bought a red '69 CJ in '73. Private deal so no brochures!

I posted this Kijiji ad a little over a month ago. I think the MJ has been sold though. I believe the owner had a Ford Ranger tonneau on it. There was a better picture of it from the back of the truck and it looked god.

You're right. OLD men do a better job!

That's pretty neat and I appreciate the work that was done but I've always enjoyed hanging out under my hatch ... especially when it's raining! I can think of many times that I've done that while camping and/or at a race track. I keep saying I'm going to custom build an awning of some type using the hatch as a base. Lets just say it's on "the list".

Congrats! Looks like a pretty good Comanche.

I agree with this. Also, when my vehicles are on jack stands it's either over concrete or asphalt. I place the stands directly on to the concrete. On asphalt I always put a 12" square piece of 3/4" plywood under each stand.

I've had my jack stands for so long that I couldn't tell you what brand they are. I wouldn't hesitate to buy a set of Torin Big Reds though. I bought a 4 ton Big Red floor jack just yesterday. I was in the market for a new one. I was in my usual tire store last week and saw that they had about 8 of them. I figured if they are good enough for commercial use I'll never wear it out.

Mine came without a catalytic converter. I had to put one back on to have it certified so I could transfer the ownership. It's the opposite to what you want to do but that was pretty straight forward.

Mine is a Master Lock.

Apparently no longer available (according to one of the posters) ... but kind of neat to see. https://barnfinds.com/rust-free-4-speed-1987-jeep-comanche/?utm_campaign=Newsletter&utm_source=Newsletter+(Daily)&utm_medium=email&utm_content=titlelink

Ha Ha. Funny you say that. My flap didn't work right from the minute I took it out of the package. I have an Excel maintenance chart for each of my vehicles. On my MJ chart there is a line that reminds me to give that lock a squirt of rustproofing oil at every service interval.

I agree. You could cut the old ones off, grind down the cuts, tack on your new perches and take it all in for final welding. It would save you a few bucks and it would make sure you get things lined up the way you want it. Also ... that axle needs to go in at the other end of your Jeep!

I hadn't either until I bought my MJ! I immediately bought the tailgate lock below ... before someone got a chance to turn it into a bench like the one below.

I have Bosch rectangular halogen driving lights on my MJ & XJ. They seem to be plentiful up here and they're not expensive. You can see from these pics the 2 different mounting options (total of 4 holes on the top of the bumper). I've looked at original sales literature have seen both used on different XJ/MJ's even in the same photo. I'm not sure why that is as the lights seem to be the same size. I don't believe there was an option for larger lights.

I took the cross member off of my XJ yesterday. Not sure if they are the same but those are 10mm thread x 3.5mm (1 3/8") long x 15mm head. I put new grade 8 bolts in.

Not mine. Just thought I'd pass it on for information. $6,000 CDN. https://www.kijiji.ca/v-view-details.html?adId=1353862725&utm_campaign=Kijiji_Alert_AB_Testing_B_LIST_ACTIVEADS&utm_medium=email&siteLocale=en_CA&utm_source=alerts&utm_campaign=Kijiji_Alert_AB_Testing_B_LIST_ACTIVEADS&utm_medium=email&utm_source=alerts

1JTMU645XJT142384 1988 Jeep Comanche Eliminator 4.0 litre automatic AW4 … 2WD … D35 rear axle with 3.55 gears … short wheel base … short box Build date: February 17, 1988 Newmarket, Ontario, Canada Daily driver along with a few other Jeeps including a 1989 Cherokee XJ. My MJ is pretty much stock. The only changes are a SONY radio, Westin Fey rear bumper, tie down cleats on the box, aftermarket interior dome lights & Jeep TJ MOAB wheels with 245/75/16 tires. It was originally red but the previous owner had it painted black. They did a good job overall including the door jambs but it’s still red under the hood. The interior is the original gray with cloth bucket seats I bought it in August of 2018 with just over 175,000 kms (109,000 mi.) on it. Surprisingly I am the 7th owner. All previous owners took good care of it.
