Can Spell Comanche (2/11)

Looks like the person that picked this up from me decided to fix it and sell it. https://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/cto/d/bethel-park-1992-jeep-comanche-shortbed/7350423438.html

Sold to a jeep aficionado here just south of Pittsburgh. She looked at it in a TJ that was in great shape, then came back later in an almost spotless 98 Jeep Cherokee to complete the sell. She plans to slow restore it.

Yeah, the pics he has of this version are hard to tell, but hopefully he'll have more out soon.

I saw this on facebook, but still waiting on a pic from the side (they switched to a single piece) https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.etsy.com%2Fsaltydawgsauto%2Flisting%2F813067015%2Fjk-tailights-to-mj-conversion-brackets%3Futm_source%3DCopy%26utm_medium%3DListingManager%26utm_campaign%3DShare%26utm_term%3Dso.lmsm%26share_time%3D1590117946640%26fbclid%3DIwAR3Em75nI78h70MiO-K5ZCG5Q8Jzv70BmIylxVbM3wtBUj2sFOZVG6SHJK0&h=AT1BBZJgjb3fKEp1Y_XgbpTmrORdbx1hdmN2zR4RPQaUxFLrtZCR-JLT6uQcA5z3Uk-v8JVmR6mn52pD-ZKD76UOmgAjJ6XWZUL0n1pn81V__2WKYSIkctojY-r0OY6VII_tsyGI56u-m3_3cA&__tn__=-UK-R&c[0]=AT1wT6QWGG9ut5NQTWMOyHXf4gWFLzdlWPNB-9sHfrPIObXkRJIwNGLnqCZidnKn8PB2jUSHdi72yl-QVsyLrTWNHJiNTZ7skIJyl75TyQ8vuPcmhBJTK8O7jL9ZmxD-VE66X6uDCpynzU9kDy0TrnPzVM-sQH6bMA

BeamNG is great, especially the physics and all of the controls. I wasnt huge on pure rock crawling but havent put a ton of hours. I'd love the forza group to put out an offroading/crawling game -
Thanks for this tip! Took a quick look while i was outside yesterday and was able to tighten this down and stop the leak. Got the system burped and its ready to go again.

Well, the project budget took a hit today. Managed to get two flats in the gladiator with my multiple trips to Lowes and Home Depot while building a deck, so decided to upgrade when replacing those tires. Hoping to look into the raidiator leak next week. (it hasnt been bad, but definitely needs to be looked at soon)
-
Yep! ive had some reasonable offers (if i was going to sell). I also have the gladiator, both are good at very different things.
-
I've had multiple people stop and offer to buy the comanche (current and previous). I always throw out my "sell it for this today" number, but never get a bite

Was mowing the lawn yesterday and noticed a small puddle under the comanche, looks like I'm leaking coolant near the passenger headlight. I'm hoping its a loose fitting/bad hose, otherwise I'll need to replace the radiator or start the full teardown (which i planning on starting after i got the cherokee torn apart).

I was thinking the same thing, especially the no paint in the engine compartment when its bare. Makes you wonder other half steps were taken during the build.
-
That actually went much easier than expected, and 1000x easier than getting the cherokee loaded. The front tires on it were completely flat and held 0 air, so we figured that slowly backing the dolly under would be our best bet. the truck got about 2/3rds of the way up the ramp before the trailer came off the hitch and punctured the tailgate. Luckily Uhaul covered the damage, but still a pain to deal with

Starting up my thread for my Comanche build. As it sits today, its a 1992, 4.0L, 5Sp, 2wd, SWB, Dana 35 that runs and drives fine with a few small issues. Overall, looking to make it go anywhere and be able to daily drive if needed. Currently, its being used off and on for quick rides/errands. History: Bought it from @kryptronic last fall Installed 2 new tires, changed oiled and trans fluid to get ready for inspection Passed PA inspection with the addition of license plate lights (the only one i didnt check) Picked up a 99 Donor with a blown engine for the start of the 97+ swap (4wd, 5sp, dana 30 and dana 35) Fixed a power steering leak Bought a (supposedly) XJ Dana 44 rear axle with what the seller thinks were 4.56 gears and no mounts for $100 Sold to a jeep aficionado here just south of Pittsburgh. Current Issues: Damp Floorboard (need to investigate more) Some weather stripping is rough Multiple Dents/Dings (especially in the bed) Windows are rough to roll down Plans: 97+ Conversion (interior and exterior) Onboard Air Air lockers possible axle shaft upgrades Determine gearing (will depend on lift/axles) SOA Rear Front lift (3 Link, 4 Link?) Steering Upgrades Bumpers, rock sliders, bed rack, bed sliders? Lighting upgrade (LED or halogen, adding fogs) Tires/Wheels Paint/body panel fix Frame stiffeners? Engine Rebuild/Stroker/LS Swap TBD Pic Dump (a few from the day i brought it home and of the parts jeep):
