Pete M may have one for sale in the classifieds. "gold Comanche coin (I think the 0666 one, but maaaaybe the 0215 one?)"

Every bolt on this thing is fighting me. Uggg. Wondering if should source a front axle with 3.73 gears so that I could match it with a Ford 8.8 with 3.73 gears, limited slip, and disc brakes. Probably should fix what I have quickly so I can get my truck on the road then swap the rear in a couple of years.

I am in Bowling Green, KY. I have all new control arms. Looks like I need a front axle with good control arm brackets.

Thank you again for the advice. I should have 3.55 gears according to my build sheet but I will verify before putting in another axle. The pull a part place that I go to sells complete axles for around $150 tax and all. I am wanting to get this thing in the woods this fall for deer season so I may do a simple/quick swap. This truck will be a driving project so I want to get the mechanics in good order before the body work.

Look like a trip to the pull a part place is in order. Would you go ahead and replace the brackets on the used replacement axle since it is out of the vehicle or just find one with good brackets and be done?

The upper and lower control arms are bent on the passenger side. The lower control arm bracket on the driver side is rusted out but the one on the passenger side is probably bent. I have new upper and lower control arms and I am pretty sure I have the Moog K3166 bushings as well.

I am in the process of fixing the front end damage to my new to me 1992 Comanche. Last night I was spraying the upper and lower control arm mounting hardware with PB Blaster. That is when I noticed my driver side lower control arm bracket is toast. If you was going to have to drop the front axle assembly to replace the brackets, what else would you do while it is out from under your truck? Suggestions on bracket manufacturers and easy axle swaps are also appreciated. 1992 Comanche Pioneer 4.0 Litre, 4x4, Automatic Dana 30 Front, Dana 35 rear

Thank you sir for the information.

1992 Jeep Comanche, Short Bed, Automatic Column Shift, 4wd, 4.0 Liter, Grey Interior, Bench Seat but looks like a bracket has been fabricated so may not be original, and it has a front skid plate. Currently in Bowling Green, KY but I purchased it at auction just West of St. Louis. Been hit in the passenger side front so it is a project right now. Plenty of rust and character.
