89 MJ

Already at 4.10s

I am starting to get a parts list for things that I will be ordering when I do my engine swap in my Comanche. Right now, my Comanche is terribly slow (12+ seconds to 60). I am not looking for V8 power levels, but I am looking for some little parts that can help boost my power a little bit. One thing I am considering is some performance fuel injectors? What ones do you all recommend? Are there any other little power adders that you recommend (not talking about forced induction, V8s, or strokers)

I have seen his. I decided against it for now because I don’t have the time to go that far into tearing it back apart.

I would use the PPG Omni line. It’s good quality and relatively inexpensive. That is what I used on my MJ. It’s a metallic paint and it cost $250 a gallon. I used 1 gallon.

I suppose. But I’m about a week it’s going to have an engine upgrade. Time me to look on the bright side, my Stroker will have a new water pump already!

Update, it was the water pump that let go. I swapped and and will start tearing the XJ apart tomorrow after work.

I have an ORM solid rear window. A little hard to shop though.

Why are you selling?

First, Congratulations! Second, there is no need to apologize for that.

Gotcha Thanks

How could you tell it was a street MJ?

While cleaning his garage I found all the missing details. I found the rear window, window sticker, every receipt imaginable. It was reassuring to know it was cared for, and had been on plenty of adventures. I feel even more responsible to keep it really nice, take it on my own outdoor endeavors. CC is Awesome! Why? The members are extremely generous not only with information, but in any way they can be. I have seen people really go out of their way to help one another with their MJ's. I think it is awesome we are all working to keep these trucks alive as long as we can. I will always be extremely humbled by how many people are willing to help, and contribute to others' success on this website. In the beginning, I was overwhelmed by the idea of owning a rare older truck. With the friends on here I'm more excited than ever. Look how clean that engine bay is Congrats @CoastChief! And thank you for helping the MJ community with your reproduction side moldings!

They definitely are cool.

Awesome! Thank you for the offer!

Oh it’s bad. The frame is rusty, it has no floors, rockers, cab corners, the bedsides are junk, the bed floor is junk, and the front fenders are super rusty.

Let the engine swap commence! My brother and I brought this to an auction today to buy his J10 when either a radiator hose or the water pump decided to let go. The rod knock also got worse. Stay tuned!

My brother and I went to an auction today and he bought this for $275. It is super rusty, even the frame. He is 13 years old and plans in buying a nicer truck with less rust and this will be his parts rig. He brought it home, threw a booster pack on it, poured some starting fluid in the carb and it started! Details: 79 J10, 360, 4 speed, LWB If you look closely, you can see my Comanche in the background.

I’m surprised my Peugeot has loved as long as it has. I beat on it pretty good with my 31s, 4.10s, and love to get 2nd gear rubbed along with clutchless shifts. It’s gone through 3,000 miles as of tonight of that kind of driving.

Nice to know!

It’s like small shreds of felt from my understanding.
