So been a minute as always. I replaced the ba10 with a aw4 automatic and I am the first person on the ENTIRE INTERNET to do so and document it. I plan on releasing it on youtube under a different username. Ill update this when it happens but itl be linked in the facebook group allthingsjeepcomanche. i love tbis truck and have been working out the kinks. The rear rubicon diff has been gone through and the front diff has had a barnes4wd jk44 to xj truss welded on. The gears are getting done this weekend so after that will be brakes. I pan on putting a wj brake booster in it currently and running brand new lines to everything. No prop valve because its crap. But from what the one ton swap giys tell me itl lock up 40s on the freeway.

WISH GRANTED. main hoop is 2 inch dom. Bedsides are 1.5 inch dom. X braces are 1.75. Rear cage I'm happy with. Front cage coming soon. Its welded to the frame in 10 places, and IT CAN TAKE A HIT! next phase ive tracked down a set ok jk rubicon diffs i got bought. Just have to get the gears setup. I bought yukon 4.88s and front will stay jeep e locker. Rear i got a crazy deal on. Already regeared to 4.88s with an arb locker and yukon chromo shafts and a metal cloak skid. I bought that ho for 400$. after that i have a aw4 thatl be using a radesigns shifter and controller to manage it. No more stick.

Up to now this truck has done every trail in bridgeport and barnwell mountain offroad park. Been great. I have almost destroyed the bed like 3x so today i sold it to a man named dillon little i. Southlake tx. Hes going to paint it red and pht it in his truck since i comp cut the rear and made a tube bumper for the rear. Anyway. Now I'm committed to the flatbed idea. Like all the way LOL. Did i me tion i plated the frame and welded rock sliders? Also have EVERY AC COMPONENT BRAND NEW.

Today i moved the front fender flares up a few inches. Much better clearance.

Been a hot @$$ minute. Truck officially went under the knife for stage 1 now that it ran and drove of course i had to make it stop ran and droving. Cut off the stock suspension mounts and installed a iron rock offroad 3 link. Installed a tj d30 with barnes 4wd truss and a aussie locker and a g2 solid front diff cover. I also swapped out the old ford 8.8 for a new one with a posi and both diffs now have a matching gear ratio of 4.10. Running 35s. I also bedlined the factory decals onto the truck today. $#!&s finally gettin legit. Though i thought the hood decal was lame and i made my own. I also added a bed topper from a mazda b series truck.

As of today it ran under its own power to the store. Ive concluded that the last owner had cooling issues because when i bought it the rad was leaking. In an attempt to fix it he put a significantly larger fan clutch on it. That coupled with motor mounts that were “done done” lead to a condition when you shift it while the engine is running the engline flopped foreard and the larger fan clutch headbutted the radiator. This lead to there being a blown head gasket upon my recieving this truck. Over the last nearly year i pulled the head and sent it to richards machine shop in haltom city tx where there were no cracks and one slightly bent valve that he replaced. He leveled the head and also did the valve guide seals. I put the head on using a fel pro kit. While i was there i also installed a oil pan gasket because of a small leak. also installed proper fan clutch and new motor mounts and radiator to solve the initial problem. ive also installed TWO. New heater cores because it was disconnected when i got it and the first one i installed leaked on the floor so i bought and installed it again. i also bought a very nice set of cherokee red leather seats with cloth backs. ive also made and installed a sticker that has offended the entire neighborhood successfully.

I bought this truck december 13 2020. Forget the last kids name. Younger guy. Truck had factory roll bar but I'm planning to exo it so i sold it to wren stafford. Red interior 87 4.0 ba15 231 t case. When i got it the truck was raptorlined. It also had a ford 8.8 with something like a 3.07 gear in the back and a front d30 with 3.55 gears. Front driveshaft was and currently is pulled.

so ive seen a number of yall talk about the 270 degree awnings, and overland under budget has a pretty legnthy tutorial on making a 270 awning. ill be doing mine here soon but its like 200$ in materials and maybe a day?
