Axle Swap and Gearing Question
89 MJ replied to ktmall07's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I have heard that you could get a Ranger with 4.56s in an 8.8, but I’ve never seen one. You may want to look at an 8.8 out of an Explorer Sport-Trac. They are about the same width as your current MJ rear axle (a regular Explorer 8.8 is over 1” narrower, IIRC) and they came with either 3.73s or 4.10s. They did have drum brakes though. -
I had it here a couple of weeks ago. I lost my sense of taste and smell, still don’t have it back. The rest of my family had it too. For us, it felt like a head cold. No shot for us either, we know more people who have had it that have the shot and boosters than those who don’t. I will add though, the shot definitely does have its place.

What else to take from 92 Cherokee?
89 MJ replied to Jesse J's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Can you post up some pics when you have time? That would help us tell you what more should be pulled. -
Thank you for getting them sent out so quick!
-
Thank you! Your truck will look great with one too!
-
The Comanche got part of its birthday present installed. A chrome 10 slot grille and complete front end. The bumper install will come in the spring. Sorry about the poor lighting.
-
Nice! Do the R/Ts have the 5.7 or the 6.4?
-
IIRC, the 97+ clutch/brake pedal is different from the 96- assembly.
-
I'm with Goose on this one. I would run the SC airdam on the SC as well. I am glad that you finally got the title and plates too.
-
It certainly is! Not a lotta room for a lotta ponies, but it looks like it all is fitting so far!
-
Good to see that progress is being made.
-
But difficult to see when laying it on. Regardless of color, I would avoid doing a bedliner. It makes it really difficult should one want shiny paint in the future, it adds more weight, and most will fade. Especially if your truck is not going to be a wheeler.

88 MJ Restoring and Preparing for Export
89 MJ replied to ExpatMJGuy's topic in Member Projects: Your Comanches
The rust on the bottom outside of the gate that you showed is not just surface rust. That is rotting from the inside out. You will have to cut out and replace that metal. -
That is true for me too. I ordered Jeep parts on the 31st though.

Axle Set in CO
89 MJ replied to neohic's topic in Craigslist/Marketplace/eBay... i.e. Not Your Stuff
@ghetdjc320, a D44. Probably more gear and money than you want though. -
Another part to consider when readhereing the lens to the housing is that it has to be temperature resistant. Now, not super high temps, but it can’t melt from driving around at night with the lights on.
-
Any lift for a 4wd will work on your 2wd, IIRC.
-
Looks like a pretty good product.

1986 Comanche Pueblo CO
89 MJ replied to Blade's topic in Craigslist/Marketplace/eBay... i.e. Not Your Stuff
I spy with my little eye, an AMC 20 rear axle. Talk about a unicorn. -
I just saw that Betty passed. I was really hoping that she was going to make 100.
-
Out of all of the colors you posted, I think I like the white the best. It has a very classy look with the turbines.
-
More parts are on the way. They will be shipped out on my Comanche’s birthday! (Monday)

Project: Cruise, a 1960 T-bird.

I think my MJ could tow that just fine. I don’t know about stopping it. I have had well over a ton behind it a couple of times and could never really feel it, even when braking. Now of course this is a lot more weight than that, but I’m still confident. Especially in 4 low.
