Here’s some other pics of the custom fab

This is probably the worst Jeep I’ve ever bought for parts. They “custom” extended all the control arms in the front and stacked lift blocks in the rear to lift it. All the angles are jacked up underneath. Peugeot Trans is broken and the drivers door won’t mount because the pins broke. The front bumper is about to fall off from just pushing it off the trailer. It was supposed to run but the battery is shot so it had to be pushed on the trailer. It also has some sort of custom stack exhaust on the side that’s not even hooked up anymore. It’s good enough for parts though😂 I’ll post more pics of the terrible custom suspension when I go take all the aftermarket parts off tomorrow morning

Awesome, I appreciate it

Looking for a 89-90 Renix TCU in known working condition. It must be tested and working because I’m trying to rule that out as an issue on my blue long bed. I’ve had 3 so far that didn’t work although 2 were next to fires and 1 I probably shouldn’t have bought

Well it’s registered and insured now. Just needs a windshield and my dad decided to start painting the roof so it’s 2 tone at the moment. I’m having an issue with the trans at the moment so I need to figure that out tomorrow. I’m leaning towards it being the TCU since both the ones I tried have been next to fires and it doesn’t want to go out of 1st gear

Some people really just suck. I went to visit my girlfriend this weekend and took my dads car since it’s more interstate driveable and the Jeeps all stayed at home. My dad drove my tj to the airport and we figured out last night that someone decided to siphon the gas out of both my grey truck and the tj. Dad just thought my Jeep was empty and filled it up but the grey truck was so empty that I apparently melted a wire trying to run the pump with no gas. It’s all good now and locking gas caps are on the way

Replaced the cowl seal today and it needed it for sure. Plan to finally put the wire loom on the efi harness and do a few other little things before it goes to a car show in march

Most of the stripes are gone along with the paint…. Probably going to either paint the bottom part of the truck black or look into respraying the whole truck before too long

New tires and turbines are on today! Little smaller than what I normally buy but they’ll be good on the interstate driving to work. Much better than the steel wheels and bald tires

Here’s some interior pics of how it looks currently. Need to fix a water leak, finish the headliner and put the interior panels back in it. I did get the fuel gauge wiring today thanks to a new Bosch pump I had and a used sending unit. The one in the truck came from an HO xj so it read backwards. Also swapped the fuel filter and it seems to crank better and the pump isnt loud like the old one

Finally figured out the return to idle and running issues with the truck. I had installed a throttle body spacer a while back trying to fix another issue which was probably the bad injectors. Turns out it wasn’t the right shape for the intake so it was creating a vacuum leak. Pulled it off and reset the idle and it runs much better

Towed home another parts Cherokee today. Truck did pretty well, stopping is much better now that the trailer brakes function

Mine has earned its keep a lot in the past few weeks

Got a full cluster in it yesterday which I thought would be hard since it’s a column shift but it ended up being really easy. I’ll try to get more pics of the inside later since it has a different seat in it now

Well it’s been a while but this truck is all back together and runs and drives again. I originally planned to flip it but now I’m going to drive it to work. Just need to fix the water leaks in the cab, put the plastics back in it, put the new tires on and a few more things before I can start driving it

Drove the truck to a car show today and it did decent but still need to mess with the tuning more. Started wiring the trailer brake controller up as well since I have a 94 Cherokee country to pickup this week for parts

Had to do a little more tuning on the truck but it’s still running pretty good. Just having some issues returning to idle at times for some reason. I went and picked up my long bed blue truck from my buddy’s house with it today. Towed pretty well on the dolly and it’s not often you see a comanche towing another comanche. I need to make the trailer brakes work and do a booster and master upgrade since stopping was a little hard but it did well overall. Peep the wrangler in the background after having to push the blue truck on the trailer

Got the hybrid cluster worried up and installed and it seems to all work. Used a Renix gauge in the ho cluster so the fuel gauge will read the correct way. Next up for this truck is probably a windshield and rear slider. I need to focus on finishing up my blue long bed mj as well so I can sell/ trade it for a bigger truck. None of my trucks are really up to towing a car trailer or my boat so I’ll go down to 2 mjs, the tj and some sort of bigger truck

Took the passengers window regulator all the way out before I figured out that it wasn’t plugged in all the way…. It’s back in and fixed now so both windows and auto locks work

It’s a 54 on a 87 s10 frame on coilovers up front. 87 corvette tpi motor and 700r4 trans. We’ve had it for a while and it needs a paint job but it’s a good driver

White Cherokee went away today so got a pic of 2 of my trucks and dads on the driveway all together

Got the passengers power door in and I mocked up all the wiring. I got lucky a while back on Facebook and scored a comanche power window and lock harness so I finally put that to use. Locks work and the drivers window works but of course I need a new regulator for the passengers side….

I appreciate it, it was great meeting you as well!

Probably going to put these on this truck once I paint it and have a place to store it indoors

Finally found a matched set at a Jeep shop in Illinois
