Comanche Aficionado

Comanche Aficionado (4/11)

  1. I see you named him after a man of the cloth. Best wishes in a rough time.
  2. Ahaha... My TJ has 3.07s and I run 33x12.50s! I vote for 31s. You'll be able to find a decent flexing lift, reasonably priced tires, and still have a well mannered DD.
  3. https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/cars-for-sale/jeep/cherokee/1899514.html?refer=blog It's not my thing, but I can respect the hustle. Would have looked better (and probably been a hell of a lot easier) with an MJ.
  4. Sadly, I don't have to imagine. That's the reason I don't have an MJ anymore. I take it needed a lot more than an axle assembly to fix? Could have got by with an axle swap, but then the 2.5 was producing a lot of blowby, so a 4.0 swap would have been in order. Way too much for what was supposed to be a 'round town DD. Still have the TJ and now a new Patriot (wife) so we're still in the Jeep Crew. I just replaced the MJ with a first gen ZR2, like I used to have before the TJ.
  5. Sadly, I don't have to imagine. That's the reason I don't have an MJ anymore.
  6. I'd have to research, but the way the Iditarod grand prize currently works is new truck, or cash value of new truck applied to other vehicles in the Chrysler lineup. So there's a chance she didn't keep the Comanche. There are a fair amount of them up here, which is interesting. The most interesting one I see every couple of weeks is a 2.8 MJ 2WD with a snorkel. Talk about optimistic...
  7. A 1986 Comanche, of course! Susan Butcher won that year...
  8. No wonder I can never find a tailgate.
  9. Was this one of ours? http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/85339-Wildernest-Camper-Poptop-Tent Gorgeous rig, Wildernest needs some work :)
  10. Interesting scope set up. That Amega rail setup is exactly why I want a scout Garand. Extended eye relief scope for heads up shots on moose and caribou in brush heavy AK. This is what I'm leaning towards: or synthetic Edit: I think I found that guys setup after he got a low mount scope: Hotness.
  11. AWD Astro drivetrain with Sy/Ty manifolds, and a big hairdryer, stuffed into a 2DR 2nd generation S10 Blazer. M715 with a 6BT/T56/NP242H and portal axles M151 with an OM617 FC150 with a 4BT/4L80...

    I don't know about not touched, but it is a polarizing subject, and this is one of the civil and polite forums on the internets, so I imagine it's more just keeping distance to keep it that way.
  13. I'm more of a Garand guy, Sam, but that M1 looks fun. Could have used an impact or two this weekend working on my ZR2. :P Mine are all black and tactical, with the exception of a 1941 Targetmaster and an Ishapore Enfield .308. Oh, and the Kel Tec P3AT whose black paint is flaking.
  14. It looks like all the photo links that work are missing the "fbcdn-" in the beginning of the URL. If you edit the photo links to remove that part of the URL, so it reads : http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn....I think it would fix them.
  15. Yut. Look forward to hearing this same announcement for Master Guns. Hope they send you someplace better than the Stumps. Or cooler, at least.
