Can Spell Comanche

Can Spell Comanche (2/11)

  1. I one i ordered was $21 i believe. Its nice thick plastic that should last at least a year or more before cracking hopefully. Hard to say in this georgia heat lmao
  2. I'm about to attempt this project myself, going with the paint roller method. I'll post pictures when I actually start on it. Right now I'm trying to fix the minor dings and the broken slider window. I replaced the dented hood with a red faded almost dent free one from a cherokee at a salvage yard, while I was there I found a comanche with non broken working slider window (took around 2 1/2 hours to get out with nothing but a leatherman lmao)! and omg get this, it had working dome lights:O the engine wasn't a 4.0 so I couldn't really salvage any parts from it, the tail gate was bent and would not open so I couldn't grab the tail lights. I'm also taking my half functional bent tailgate off and throwing a net in it. Tired of looking for a decent tailgate under $200 lol.
  3. I recently bought a new renix reservoir bottle from them. Had a hiccup with fedex but thepartsbin delivered what i ordered and would of been on time if it weren't for fedex
  4. Sweet. Is your old one dented beyond a bondo repair?
  5. I've only seen one other comanche in town and his tailgate is worse than mine lol
  6. Sigh. More looking and i found some custom ones for like 600. I guess ill just get a net
  7. I'm trying to find a used tailgate for my mj so i can start painting it. Ive had no luck locally and online. So i tried looking for an aftermarket one but no luck with that. I don't really want to put a net on it because i think it looks tacky. Is there any other options? Any tailgates from other vehicles that would fit?
  8. I cut out a couple sockets from an xj in the salvage yard to replace the rusted ones that came with my mj that wouldn't turn on. after splicing them on the problem was fixed. If you have a bad ground, it's not hard to locate. Go to harbor freight and get a cheap multimeter, cut the wires from the socket, trace the wires to where the harness ends at a connector, run a continuity check to distinguish which wires are which, and then test the voltage, and ohms to a good ground compare results to a turn signal that is functioning correctly. I'm a helicopter electrician, most of my job consist of doing the same thing, except with bigger wire bundles lol
  9. HA! fixed it. the blown fuse melted the fuse holder too so I had to splice a new one on. shifts beautifully on her own now:D what makes me angry about repairing it with a new fuse is I took it to Mr. Transmission for a free quote, and they told me the transmission was bad...that I would either have to pay for a new one to put in there or rebuild the current one. I feel like reporting them to the BBB.
  10. this box? Also there was a couple loose wires down there and not sure what they go to. and I noticed a 10 amp fuse on a wire that was burnt out on the harness that goes to that box. about to head to autozone for one.
  11. the TCM, is that also called the TCU by some? and where would I locate that?:P I might head back to the salvage yard and pick one up.
  12. I went to the salvage yard and yanked the 3 shifter solenoids from an XJ and installed them in my tranny. Didn't fix anything, didn't make anything worse. I put some ATF+4 in while I was at it. Didn't do a flush, just drained and filled when the pan was installed again. about every month I'm going to drain the tranny again and put more ATF+4 until I feel it's mostly new transmission fluid inside. I talked to someone who worked on transmissions for a quite some time and he said it sounded like the main valve might be stuck and that it sounds scary but he used to open the valves by popping it into park at around 25mph. I was not planning on doing this lol, however I was on my way to petsmart with my dog in the cab when she bumped into my while I was shifting to 2nd and I accidently popped it into park. Killed the engine and I was freaking out, started back up and it still shifts fine except when it drive. still goes straight to 3rd gear. One of my buddies was saying it might be might shift cable or tps? and that I might have to adjust it. How would I go about checking that?
  13. hope this helps. previous owner siliconed a plexi glass sheet in place of the broken out part, and then I locked the doors without realizing the key doesn't work, so I had to break it to get in lol.
  14. hrmm, well I just got under the truck and looked at the transmission. doesn't look like a 904, looks more like an aw4. but there is too much gunk to read the plate. maybe the guy that sold it to me didn't know what he was talking about
