I love this build

I'll send her another message telling her to check out the club!

I offered to buy them but someone beat me to it. Apparently she sold 3 comanches this week, two red and a grey one. Too bad I wanted those parts and trucks. I guess I have to be faster but I was just trying to line up a couple tows.

She has 2 comanches. I am worries about the sketchy floor repairs done so I am wondering if the trucks are not in great shape if they are worth all the parts they come with. She wants 4500 CAD for one and 1500 for the other. I could proabably get both for 5k or less. Here is the add 1988 Comanche Mj with cap excellent body bad paint. Standard 4x4. Needs finishing. Started axle swap for Ford axles (44/9) that come with arb air lockers got the front axle in but need to put the rear axle in and set up up. Currently drives but not road worthy until the swap is done. Comes with bead lock rims and 35” tires. The tires rims locker setup and axles are worth well over $4000 on their own. https://www.facebook.com/commerce/listing/370516580632128/?media_id=4&ref=share_attachment

Nice Build

Hi Everyone, so not a commanche but I passed by this ad for an old 76 wrangler and I'm thinking I should pick it up. He wants to trade for a dirt bike for his son so I sent him a few options and he is happy with one of my bikes. I was wondering, is this thing with a rotten frame still worth atleast $1000? I could trailer this and bring it to my friends farm and have some fun with it but I don't think it would be roadworthy without building a new frame and dropping the Jeep back on. Let me know your thoughts and if I am getting into something crazy it has a running 304 V8

Is there a list of what models have HP stock? or do I just look at the placement of the driveshaft I found a 1998 XJ that I think would be a good parts vehicle as long as the axles arent too rusty. I could also use some of the body panels and the power windows so I was thinking this would be a good donor vehicle. Would this have the axle setup I need? And would I only have to change the front? If this is the right Jeep I will get it in the next week or so and have most of the parts to fix my manche Thanks again guys https://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-trucks/stratford-on/1998-jeep-cherokee-xj-lifted/1539187872?undefined

So at this point I will be looking for as setup from a 95-99 XJ with a 4.10 for the easiest install and strongest setup?

Whats your best advice for finding a whole new axle? Its going to need a bunch of new hardware anyways so the new axle may be the way to go.

Haha so at this point I have replacement Ujoints that I can put in but I'm wondering if it makes sense to just replace the axles to the 95-99. Or do I have to change more than just the axles in order to do that? I was also wondering if you can see the vaccuum on this one and if it is CAD I think I want to keep it as original as possible and maybe upgrade the axles if it makes sense Next time I go up I am just going to start tearing it all apart

Did everyone go back to work or somethin?

Hey Gogo, I uploaded some pictures of my axles. Let me know what you think! Big project or small, were going for it! This Jeep has 24,500 on the dash, if only it was parked inside. Hoping for the best on the internals. When I took off the front wheels there were still the original washers on the bolts on the wheel hubs! Cheers, Joe

So mine is a 2.5 5 Speed manual, and here are some pictures my buddy sent me. Sorry they might not be the best shots, I will take some axle wide shots when I go up there next. Let me know what you think and welcome to my mess haha! The more I learn about these Jeeps the more interested I become in them

Thanks for the info Gogmorgo, I sent a message to ask more about the axle and get some pictures. It would be nice to find the whole assembly, otherwise I think the plan is two new axles from a 95+ and some new hardware because a lot of mine are a little too rusty to go back in, and probably won't be fun to get out either

haha well hopefully noone on the form tries to outbid ya, I think I am just going to keep an eye out but they are just getting more and more rare! I figured my Jeep has time while its under the knife
