89 MJ

Of course it’s too new to be in my SBC realm of knowledge. I would be looking for a temp sensor on Rock Auto and check the pictures for reference on there.

Me too. Nothing against cars this way, they just seem way too complicated for their own good.

@Jesse J, your MJ brother. Same state even.

Hmmm, this sounds exciting.

@Dzimm, do you have any recommendations for this? Personally, I would just try to find an existing hole that I could wiggle it through.

Kudos to you for fixing this truck! This is by far one of the rustiest trucks that I have seen and I look forward to seeing the transformation.

I'm looking forward to seeing what you will come up with. You ought to start a build thread on that XJ!

You earned it!

Whatever you come up with, I'm sure it will be period correct and awesome!

As long as you can get all of the U-bolts off. Sorry, I had to do it

Dang 5th amendment

Can't go wrong with decals, it would be cool to see them get put back on him.

Story time? I love hearing some of my great-grandpa's stories that he tells us from when he was young (late 40s, early 50s). Yes, I know that you are not that old.

My parents were even married until after the MJ ceased production...

The internet doesn't stop me!

It is typical for vehicles to get slightly worse fuel mileage in the wintertime, but I think your fuel mileage is off. Does your truck seem to run rich at all? What size tires and gears do you have? What is your driving style?

Dang young whippersnappers. I feel like that just comes with driving and owning these trucks. Hey, at least he's on Guam so he can't give you a swirly or something

Just think of it as MJ brotherly love

You're older than I thought you were. I always thought you were closer to my age (maybe 20) These trucks even make me fell old a little bit. When I was born, my truck was only 15 years old. Now its 32. That seems like a long time.

I hope I'm one of the productive ones. I try at least

Happy early birthday! Hopefully I will remember to wish you a happy birthday on Sunday too!

I'm just going to leave this here real quick once:

You should check out his other MJOTM--it has changed a lot since then. I have it linked above.

March 2021-89eliminator's 89 Eliminator Yes, yes, this Jeep has in fact been MJOTM before. I know many of you will remember this truck and a few of you have been around to see this truck's transformation. As of now, this truck has the longest build thread on Comanche Club. Let's hear it for @89eliminator, and his 89 Eliminator!

It’s been thru a lot of variations over the years Best MJ story- I'd say just meeting other owners who share a similar passion. CC is Awesome! Why? Awesome members. Not too often is there drama and there is loads of valuable info here. Great to be a part of it. I'm glad Wade reached out to me to have this truck featured, even though it is a repeat. It certainly has changed a lot over the years. Congrats, Wade!

Looks like Chunk was a fairly late one. Also, this section is almost a year old.
