  1. This truck is listed on facebook marketplace now. looks like they put in a drivers side floor and up'ed the price to 4,500$ https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2380787255539074/
  2. Adding a couple more not from CL CO part in MI. front end dmg https://www.picknpull.com/vehicle_details.aspx?VIN=1JTMW6415JT016487 https://www.picknpull.com/vehicle_details.aspx?VIN=1JTMG6418JT200156
  3. I ordered mine from here. http://www.1aauto.com/1A/Carpets/Jeep/C ... 442/328712 color was damn near the same. Had a wool like heavy backing/underlay. It was preformed for the trans tunnel but still takes some work on making it fit. None of the stud holes or shift holes are cut, so take your time working into places. But all in all not bad for the price.

    Readers Rides

    Also on page 28 there is a beautiful Comanche from the Sema show by Adventuretrailors
  5. Oh dang I really thought OME made a 3" coil. Must have misread it somewhere. Ya i really have heard great things about their coils, and I ran their 2.5" leafs on my old YJ. I'm looking for a nice ride cause the comanche rarely sees much besides payment and unpaved fishing roads. Any suggestions would be nice. I may go look at Rubicon express next
  6. I was wondering if anyone has a photo or input on the OME 3" coils. I would like to run these on the front and get a set of 3" hell creek springs out back. My worry is jus the the front and back will not be a similar height even though they are both 3" lifts. Also on the front Should I just order the springs or will I have to worry about LCA or anything else. Thanks for any input.
  7. ya that would be sweet pm'd you also
  8. No, I was not refearing to the teraflex shackles. I was talking to someone on the chat here and they told me that they can cause leaf spring issues, that the angles of the shackle is not great for the comanche and that I should go with check drop shackles over those. I havent looked into it very much either and I am in the same boat, I mostly just DD my manche so I still would like to see the photos of them installed to see what angles they are at.
  9. Really interested in your pics of this. I have heard mixed things about these shackles. Would like to know what you think of them when you get them on.

    Local Junkyards

    Ya i have used jeep unlimited in Prov for wrangler stuff. They say they don't have any MJ stuff, rarely they get one. They just sold a Dana 44 from one on ebay for like 250$ and they have a full center console for one and the taillights up now. I'm looking for a rare bumper right now, So maybe I will take the ride up to foster.

    chain saws...

    It all depends on what you want to spend and how much use it will get, Polan used to be really good but not a huge fan of their saws since they got bought out Sthl 290 is nice, the "farm boss" 290 is a nice all around saw it will run an 18" bar and have plenty of power. Remeber don't just throw larger bars on any saws, the longer the bar the more power the saw needs to move the teeth. I own a few saws.... Sthl 290 Sthl MS200 climbing saw (my fav. thing shreds), and a husqvarna 455 very similar to the 290 just a little more power. I like the Sthl's new 290s are like 350-375$ New gas kills these saws don't let gas sit in the saws it goes bad quickly, always check your oil and clean of the bar. Store the saws correctly we store ours on the sides.
  18. Well havent updated at all so Ill list of the stuff I have gotten done. New exhaust all the way including the down pipe, cat, exhaust and tail pipe. New front brake calipers, drivers side was sticking randomly. Re adjusted the e-brake and rear drums. Replaced all the lugs since some were missing Pulled all the injectors and found out they were all extremely clogged from sitting, cleaned out most but #5 injector was unable to get clean so I replaced it. Fuel rail and pin holes and was leaking like crazy after cleaning it. Was leaking around fuel pressure regulator. Got one from the local junk yard and also picked up a few vacuum lines as mine were shot. Put on a new valve cover gasket which solved the biggest leak but still have a small RMS leak. Got a new freeze plug in and truck is running at temp fine. No leaks. Started on the body work filled and pulled some dents and ground down some rust and treated it. Had to remove some cancer over the drivers side rear wheel, still need to weld in a patch. Quickly primed the box and gate, need to do some work on the tail gate handle anyone ever try to work on these and have some tips? Also picked up some doors local, swapped out the panels and put in new speakers today during the rain. Have a set of grey door panels and arm rest in nice shape if anyone wants them free local or for shipping cost. They are just missing the speaker covers and could use some cleaning. Still looking for a rear bumper, headliner and a maroon dash. List of things left to do New front ujoints Body work on the nose floors line bed with upol new rims/tires then lift
  19. I like my Toyo ATs and I also reall ylike the BFG AT's both tires wear great. I have 30k on my toyos now and they look brand new, I will easily get 45-50k on them
  20. You can use ATF fluid to flush your oil. Use like a 50/50 mix of oil and ATF fluid and oil, run it for a few minutes to get it threw the engine then drain while hot and flush with fresh oil and filter. The detergents in the ATF fluid will do a good job of cleaning. I also have seen and read of people doing flushes with kerosene but thats a little aggressive for me, I like a little gunk to hold my engines together.
  21. Thanks for the help and offers. I went and pulled on today out of a 93 Cherokee for 15$. Bolted right up only difference is the pressure release valve is farther forward then the mj one, but made no difference. Mine rotted out right around the fuel pressure regulator.
  22. Thanks Geono, I figured it was, as they look identical. Still searching for somewhere to find a replacement
  23. Hey guys just a few questions. MY fuel rail is all rusted up and full of holes. I cleaned out the injectors and rail, and the rail is leaking out of a bunch of pin holes. Does a Cherokee fuel rail swap in? And why can't I find anywhere selling a fuel rail? XJ or MJ. Am I going to have to get a junkyard rail? Yards around here close at 5 and I work till 7. Don't want to have to take time of work just to go pull one if I could find a new one. its a 1991 MJ 4.0l 5spd 4x4
