Well after years of searching a Comanche with everything I wanted was posted for sale.. She has her issues but I can look past them. For the year is the best condition Comanche I have seen on the west coast, rust and all, however very little body rust!
1991, HO, 290,000km, Ax15, 4x4. Factory dana44.
I just got her last week, she wasn't running but I knew of the small frame rust and various other issues but the price was right.
I got her running today, swapped out the CPS. I really wish they would have made this sensor easier to change, I've done a few and it's still a challenge. Unfortunately once she was running I could hear a misfire, opened airbox, lots of blowby. Checked compression, only 60PSI on cylinder 1.
So this thread will unfortunately begin with a motor swap and some much needed maintenance but she will get a lift, 4.10 gearing, ford 8.8 lsd with discs, 33s and much more. Most of these parts will come off my 98 XJ including the motor!
The attached pictures are the day I purchased. Last picture is my XJ which will be a lot of donor parts.
