Military Wrapped Springs With Lift, Group Buy
87MJTIM replied to Biotex's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I do want to be included in the group purchase, I just want to know the details before I commit fully. I am not really needing the "military wrap" spring. What will the cost per spring be? Approx how much lift? When do we/I need to finalize? I emailed GS through their website with my same questions. This was the reply: "The difference between the 3/1 and 3/2 is design and grading of steel. The 3/2 has a higher capacity at 1700 lbs per side while the 3/1 is rated at 1280 lbs per side. The 3/2 will typically sit the truck 1-1/2" taller than stock as long as your current spring is not the 3/2. Shipping will be between $40 - $60 for a pair depending on which spring you decide on." -

Thanks. I saw on the General Springs website diagrams of the springs. Do either spring give a lift of 2" to 3"? Like all of us, as we age things start to sag. I am sure my 25+ yr old springs are showing signs of aging. -

For a novice about springs, what do the spring numbers mean: 4(3/1) vs. 5(3/2)? How much lift would either spring provide. I am looking for 2" to 3". My current leaves are original. The right side has a broken leaf. So I need to have that repaired/replaced. -
The BA10 had phased out by '89. So, if it is original, it is most likely an AX-15. A way to verify it is to look at the trans. If the case is split vertically, left and right halves, then it is a BA10. If it split horizontally, top and bottom halves, then if it is an AX 15.

The carpet is faded. It was kind of beige, but is doesn't match the other colors on the sample page. The switch is for the cargo box light.

What Manuals Are You Using?
87MJTIM replied to kaiserslaveray's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
jpnjim, Let me write you a prescription for your ocd. 1. purchase a scanner. It should have a document feeder with dual sided scanning. 2. remove the binding from the books. beginning with the ones for the '87s, 3. get yourself an adult beverage. 4. begin scanning. 5. send me the files to review. 6. repeat as necessary. -

Comanchemodder, If you need electrical diagrams, download the pdf from this thread: http://comancheclub.com/topic/12083-electrical-manual/ It is for an '88 but most of the diagrams match the '87. (I found you MJ detail on another of your posts.) -

The one marked 84-87 had nothing about the 4.0 or BA10/5 (not that I would open up a trans). I think I might contact the seller with questions and concerns. -

I see this one on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=400315596505&item=400315596505&lgeo=1&vectorid=229466 It is a two volume, where the other was only one volume. It also (says it) covers 86 to 88, not like the other which was 84-87. Your thoughts? Is this what you have in your garage/shop? -

I had the same issues. Running light, turn signal and flashers all work, but no brake lights. Replaced the turn signal switch in the steering column. Napa: http://www.napaonline.com/Catalog/Result.aspx?Ntt=turn+signal+switch&Ntk=Keyword&Nty=1&N=599001+101987+50038+2038006 -

This is the one I purchased. Note the years covered. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1984-1985-1984-1987-Jeep-Comanche-Shop-Service-Repair-Manual-CD-Factory-OEM-Info-/400341476307?pt=Motors_Manuals_Literature&hash=item5d363623d3&vxp=mtr Where can I get one that covers the 87 MJ? -

I have both Chiltons and Haynes. I like the Haynes more because it cross references to other steps to perform when you are repairing/replacing parts. The Chiltons just states "remove X...reinstall X." But, I refer to both when I start to work on something I am not familar with (which is a lot.) I searched and found a Factory Service Manual (FSM) online that (supposedly) covered "84 - 87 Comanches". The years had me concerned, since the MJ started in 86. I bit the bullet and bought the FSM. Upon looking it over, it only covered the 86 models. It did not have any info about 4.0 eng. or BA10/5 trans. I returned it and got a full refund. -

Yes, the Fey bracket fit on the side of the frame. The original brackets bolt on the side and bottom of the frame.
