There is also this thread going, but its more upgrades rather than parts to grab, but still helpful.

Front skid plate too, I didn’t see that on the list. I might’ve missed it too. Factory 2.5 AC stuff is rare. The bellhousing off of a 2.5 Dakota can mate an AX-15 to a 4 cylinder.

Soapy water is your friend. Use lots of it that way you can manipulate the graphics some.

@Pete M I think has has baby powder technique. Basically sorrels out a thin layer on the floor near where you think it’s leaking and follow the trail.

You can. I’d run it on an 8” wide wheel, but a 10” would be fine.

If the 2.5 doesn't have enough power for you, neither will the 4.0, IMHO

@SoCalJeepComanche I think has 5 on 5 on his truck.

That is @ComancheKid45's truck.

@Limeyjeeper

Yes, it was the Kammback. Probably 2nd lowest production Eagle. Second to the Eagle Sundancer convertible.

There is already so much knowledge and useful information on it, and everybody is so helpful and willing to give advice. I have no doubts that I will keep returning to this forum to ask for more help, document my experiences, and do what I can to help other people who are in the same position I once was and currently am in.

What can I say, I really like to see other young guys buildings building these trucks. Congrats @Warren99. It's a good looking truck!

It's rare enough that if you want to build one, you should find a different truck.

My Eagle before I rescued it: My brother’s truck before he rescued it: An SX4 in the same JY my brother’s truck came from:

Yessir, I do. Turns about 2700 at 75 and 3000 at 85. I ran it across the state at 75 and got 20mpg. Don’t worry about the RPMs. It’ll be happy.

Good looking duo!

@Eagle_SX4, lets see some pictures of your car! Both @acfortier and I have 86 Wagons.

Wow! I thought the exterior was gorgeous. Then I saw that interior

Why not keep the blue interior? What color are you going to swap to?

FWIW, I did an add a leaf in my truck using a set of XJ 3" lift springs (just added one out of that pack to my original pack) and the 5 leaves made it drive a lot better than the 4 leaves. The truck felt more planted.

That seems pretty reasonable for a custom cover.

Time to change up the interior in my truck when I get back to WI in May. My other 2 Comanches had buckets and were way more comfortable than my bench is. If anyone near WI has a pair of navy tilting buckets and a navy full console in excellent condition, I am definitely interested in them.

The story behind mine goes back 7 years. When I turned 12, I got my Eagle. I swapped the engine in it and made it drivable. During my first bout of ownership with that car, I saw a Comanche that some friends of ours owned. I sold the Eagle because I wanted a Comanche and it turned out that he wanted to sell the Comanche at a similar time, so I used the money I got from the Eagle to buy the Comanche. I owned and worked on it for a year before joining the forum 4 years ago and I've been here since. I have since reacquired the Eagle and I have zero plans to ever sell either of them.

Ah yes, the perks of having a lifted, locked 4x4. And I'm sure all of the prius owners love to complain about it until it is the only rig that can make it to town.

If I may ask, what did that run you?

Glad you were able to come up with a stud. I’d been looking, but hadn’t found anything aftermarket.
