Not at all. Lol. I doubt there is any coolant at all in it. Is it hard to recharge? Can I just buy the stuff in the can and give it a try? Now let me ask you this, if I did get some refrigerant in it, would the low pressure switch then allow it to kick on?

I took the nut off the top and I could see it turning through the oil fill hole. Only let it run for about 2 seconds
-
So when I jumped it, the e fan came on and I could see the inside of the compressor moving. I’m hoping that’s a good thing.

Hey guys, back at it again working on this truck. Lol. I have an 87 4.0 that came with factory air. Currently not working, looking to get it going. After looking at a few threads I got a few ideas. Compressor doesn’t kick on or anything. Fan blows nice and fast. I took the low pressure switch out and jumped it with a paper clip. Low and behold the electric fan turned on. I didn’t really hear the compressor come on though. Can someone tell me if I am on the right track? I’m hoping compressor isn’t shot but I really don’t know. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Tightening tow mirror
Whitaker717 replied to Whitaker717's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Anyone with this type of mirror, on the top part there are two indentations that look like a spanner wrench might go into it. I don’t know if mine are deep enough. Does anyone who has these mirrors have the same two indentations. I wonder if you could get a spanner on it and turn the round part. Thoughts? -

I was kind of thinking the same thing. I might try to disassemble one to see what is going on with it. -

I’m not sure. If there is I can’t see one. Someone else asked the same thing. I would think you could tighten that somehow. Idk though -

Here you go Pete. The top and bottom points move on one of them. I don’t see how you tighten or adjust them. IMG_4792.MOV -
Tightening tow mirror

Can someone who has these mirrors tell me if the arm brackets move? On both mirrors I have, the bottom bracket moves but on one of them the top bracket moves too. Trying to figure out if it is able to be tightened up. -
Hi guys, as the title states, is it possible to tighten the tow mirror arm? The pieces that bolt yo the bracket inside the door. I have a couple I would like to put on my Comanche but bracket is a bit loose. Therefore the arm will move a bit when bolted to the door. If anyone has any idea how to tighten it or what to do I would appreciate it.

Jeep Commander interior lights

I can second the euramtec lights. Changed mine out with very little modification needed. They work great -
Still looking. Love that style. I can’t hardly see out of the triangle window to see my mirrors
-
Pm me Joliet. Still looking.

tow mirror location
Whitaker717 replied to watchamakalit's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Following this topic guys, since I want to do the same thing. Do any aftermarket mirrors work? -
I reached out to Kody and he didn’t have any of that style.
-
Yep! I called on 2 sets already and they were gone. Lol. I will keep looking.

General engine question
Whitaker717 replied to Whitaker717's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I appreciate it. It definitely is slow. I haven’t allowed it to go past 210 yet to see if it keeps going. I just know the smell when I park it in my garage reeks of overheating coolant. Lol -
General engine question
Whitaker717 replied to Whitaker717's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
It’s an 87, 4.0 with a closed system. I’m not too interested in covering to open at this time. My thermostat isn’t even a year old so I haven’t checked it. -
General engine question
Whitaker717 replied to Whitaker717's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I typically run around the 190 range. It tends to creep up to that 210 range when idling. I try not to let it get any higher than that. I think it’s the smell for me that worries me. The burning coolant smell. I’m just not used to it. -
I just have a general engine question guys. Being new to these Comanches, so they always run hot? I have a new radiator, water pump, thermostat, and clutch fan. I also just had a flush and fill from the Jeep dealership. Whenever I am at idle, the temp starts creeping up. Also when I pull in my garage and pop the hood, the hood itself and the heat off the engine could cook an egg and it smells like burning coolant. Is this normal for these little trucks or am I panicking for nothing? Thanks guys!

Bump. Surely someone has a set they can part with?
