It bugs me every time these guys point something out that has info about it but they don’t elaborate on it. Like the grill. They mentioned the seven slot grill on post ‘97 jeeps. But the son said something about the eight slot being wacky and an unknown design during that period. I don't know, I feel if you are gonna own something as unique like a Comanche, at least get to know it and how special it is before taking pot shots at knowledge. I wonder if Chrysler is behind these videos.

Exactly. I feel if they got a decent running 86 with the 2.8L they probably would’ve paid to have that rebuilt too.

Hasn’t anyone on here done an AX-15 swap for a lot less than rebuilding a BA10/5?

E brake on driver side
eaglescout526 replied to Blaine.D's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Is it rubbing on the outer drum ring? I have the same issue and I’ve just did my best to force the cable back far enough to where the rubber hooks on that guide -
Damn. I want to help but my computer is down and reading everything on the phone is not fun. As soon as I get my computer back up I’ll get right on it if we have not finished. (PS, don’t install preview build 1903 if you have windows insider)

Adjusting 4.0 tach for use with 2.5
eaglescout526 replied to benjy_26's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I did this with my blue cluster. I turned the pot dial all the way to the left for four cylinder after installing it and fiddling with it to see where the right RPM was. I thought I would’ve needed a reference tach at first but after I got my REM the tach was correct to what the REM was saying. + or - 100 RPM. All the way to the right is for 8 cylinders. -
Trouble shifting after new clutch install.
eaglescout526 replied to benjy_26's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Just my two cents; when I installed a new clutch after the trans blew, I decided to replace the throw out bearing. For two weeks I had issues shifting and had to use rev match to shift. After having the tranny out for the third time I thought about the throw out bearing and sure enough it was not seated far enough back. The clutch plate sat in there just fine but there wasn’t enough room for the pressure plate to push on the clutch to stop it. -
Aww darn. I missed a chance for a great pun. Too excited at the time. But it very much is a trip back.

As stated here is before and after on the carpet. P.S. It looks way better in the cab! Before: After: 30 years of dirt and other crap came out of this carpet. I honestly contemplated just buying a new carpet kit after spending about and hour and a half pressure washing it.

And American Motors said: LET THERE BE LIGHT!! Was not too bad to install. I got this done in about thirty minutes with a slight screw up. This only happened because I took the carpet out to pressure wash it. It is still dirty but a lot better. And yes there will be before and after pictures on that. This was done around 17:03 and yes I waited till it got darker just for that picture. lol.

For anyone who is curious and to preserve Comanche history, here is the instructions I had “scanned” for all to see. AMC Jeep Comanche Running Boards Instructions.pdf

I believe it is, I think that plate was last registered in 06 but I’m almost certain that the sticker under that says ‘97. I’ll have to look when I return home.

It’s the Arizona veteran plate. Well what’s left of it. It was originally on my truck when my grandfather owned it and I’ve since hung onto it

And she is done! I love em. I almost need a roll bar instead of a bed rug in the back. But this is just fine

Hell yeah! The running boards are from that eBay listing. I actually couldn’t believe no one else bid on them. And funny enough about the mud flaps is I was looking for a how to install them and ran into the part number on here. So I plugged the number into Chrysler and one dealer had the old number.

Honestly. I saw it twice. I went in expecting it to be meh and came out with meh. I’ll probably get some protest but I felt the movie was slapped together and got called a marvel film.

Making some great progress for the kit not having any of the bolts and removing stubborn fender bolts. More to come.
