    I got it figured out, Have to pull one of the bolts out of the top cover plate. I'll report back here if it does or doesnt leak anymore

    I am going to try this. Where would I connect the grease gun? To the thing on the top that you use to take the play out of your steering?

    Axle with longer wheel studs Opening rear axle to pull the axle shaft out to take off the drum brake backing plate Kj 8.25 disc brake backing plate Rear brake line routing (going to change it) New rotor/new caliper installed *not all the pictures needed but some*

    Should I just order a new box?

    @outlaw star If I am correct the paint code is Killer Beej @Pete M and I may go with ome of the bright greens maybe more of the lime one. Also the brake light/hazard light not working was caused by a loose fuse

    The kj disc brake write up is good, could use a bit more info and definitely some pictures. I have some pictures from when I did my swap that I can give you

    I personally have two 4dr xj buckect seats in mine. From what I can tell they are comfortable and the slide far enough forward where its not impossible to get stuff out from behind the seats. But the added convenience of folding forward is cool too. I just wanted bucket seats and I had a cherokee at the time just sitting at my house

    Hello fellow members. As some may know I just got my jeep running and driving, and when I brought her back from a spin around the block I saw it was dripping some fluid I freaked out for half a second thinking it was oil, I checked all the spots oil could leak from and they where all dry. I took a second look and my manual steering box is leaking. at first i thought it was from the sector shaft seal where the pitman arm connects after talking to Lee but its leaking from the front of the steering box. How could I fix this up?

    Yesterday I got my monstaliner color chip set. I have no idea which color to go with because they all look cool. I am thinking the bright green or light grey

    Got it, going to check that tomorrow and will repost questions in the tech forum

    I know this is for electronic clusters but can you change the odometer on the analog clusters?

    Now I still have to go through cruiser's renix tips but I have a few questions, my tail lights don't light up when I press on the brake, is it a fuse or a ground? my hazard lights worked, I left them on for about 2 mins and they stopped working, what could be the cause? my dash volt gauge is not working properly, is it a loose cable? Lastly, How can I remove the rear glass/trim to fix some of the rust there? Thanks again guys without your help, my Wendy wouldn't be where she is today. (its not much but something)

    It does haha, mostly because I am missing the bolts that hold the exhaust junction together, A new header and mid pipe is on the way soon.

    I just got mine running and driving. I might take it to jeep beach but i don't know if I will meet the deadline
  15. Swampy
    Major milestone for me. Almost 9 months to date and I got the comanche driving yesterday. I still have plenty left on my plate to do but its going good. Now to check checking stuff off my list.
  16. Swampy
    It should get here tomorrow, so if anything just let me know when you are available
  17. Swampy
    Haha It would be appreciated, all that is really left for it to be on the road is installing the pre-bleed clutch/slave system because I messed up the first one because I cut the plastic straps, other wise it would be driving. Honestly kinda scared to install the new pre-bleed system because I don't want to mess it up again

    I have been looking for you on the forums. I have been following your instagram (my ig: @Swamp_nut) for a while and you have been doing work on that comanche. I'm glad you found the forum and I would like to welcome you. I am excited to see where this is going, I know you have tons and 42s under it already too ;)
  20. Swampy
    I love following the instagram page so many cool trucks on there
  21. Swampy
    Dang that truck looks awesome. I love it, I didnt ever like those flares but your truck just makes them work and makes want to order a set. If mine could look half as good as yours I will be happy
  22. Swampy
    if you don't mind me asking what seat belts are those? Mine could use some new belts. The seat looks pretty cool, diamond stitch is always a nice touch
  23. Swampy
    Thats crazy after so many years you got it back haha, glad to it getting some love
  24. Swampy
    Slowly but surely it is coming together, I can't wait to be driving it soon.

    Been A while since I updated (will be a picture heavy post) The comanche runs again ( I still have to do all the renix tips and some other odds and ends for the motor but it runs), Still need a clutch master cyclinder/slave for it to be able to drive which is hopefully next week. The way the engine bay looks now, Swapped in an aluminum valve cover from a 2.5l tj, you do need longer bolts than stock to be able to run it just an fyi, also got the new brake booster installed and bleed Here are some pics, first off finished the kj disc brake swap minus parking/emergency brake cables How I ran the brake lines, I didn't want them to be hanging down, but I am not sure if this is the best route (may undo it and run it under the leaf springs) Also picked up some new wheels for the comanche, 15x8 american racing outlaw 2 (little teaser shot on the comanche)
