Can Spell Comanche

Can Spell Comanche (2/11)

  1. iv had to zj's 1 4.0 with 269,000kms and 1 5.2 with 218,000kms both had 42re tranny's and not once did they skip a beat and i have a heavy foot and am hard on my jeeps alot of reverse to drive reverse to drive break burns etc lots of durty boring in mud and rocks ... the key to those trannys is keep the filter and fluid clean.. and extend the vent lines ... its usally when u get water in the tranny is when they go bad..... but I'm very very anal when it comes to fluids and makin sure bolts and seals r good .. that might be why iv had such good luck with them
  2. yeah i figured it would be alot.... and didnt think it would be worth it ... but I'm sure sending the mount wouldnt cost much but still probally cheaper to go to a JY if u can find a decent one
  3. i wonder what shipping would be on it... through canada post... i figured the shipping to the states would be pricey.......or next time i go to town i could stop into UPS .. i live in the woods pretty much lol but go to town acouple times a week so if ur in no huge rush ill probally goin to town in the next couple days pm me ur name and full address and ill see what it will cost??? iv never shipped anythign cross boarder befor just looked to make sure i still have them and its 2 track bars with decent ends and good bushings and 1 upper mount thought i had 2 mounts but might have givin the other one away to a buddy
  4. ok so all ill need it the header thefenders and the light sockets seems easy enough thanks for finding that link cheers Nick
  5. i can get my hands on the front of a 99xj and was curiouse if its a direct bolt on to my 89mj... or do i need to change fenders and hood aswell? cause my fenders and hood r mint
  6. geeez if u guys were closer i got a good track bar with mount sittin in my basment and another one to .. its no good to me as i have an ajustable rc one .... i wouldnt charge anything for them as they r a dime as dozen around here
  7. iv all ready got about 6 inches of lift and SOA in the rear... i figure the 8.8 will put my rear up a bit more were the tube is alot biger then the 35 so might have to compansate with a spacer in the front
  8. yeah just lookin at it u would think they would be the same ... but yeah if i do swap it out ill cut them off and move them and set my pinion angal and stuff... its just a good deal and hard to say no to $150 for a 8.8 complete drum to drum with 4:11s and a LSD and its will be alot stronger then my d35 with lockrite lol
  9. figured i wouldnt be that lucky :hmm: lol ... would have been nice to just pick it up slid it under tighten the ubolts and go lol
  10. ok well i think i might swap a 8.8 into the heep ... so my question is its set up for a XJ and was curiouse if the spring pads are the same width apart on a mj as a XJ... i know the shock mounts r way diffrent from a mj to a xj so i wana know if i will have to cut them off and move them over cheers Nick
  11. my buddy has a 98 5.2 with tow package and it came with 4:11's a lsd and a dana 44a but best to swap the 249 t-case for either a 242 or 231.... get a bit better mpgs
  12. i had a 98 gc limited with the 5.2lt and the 42re tranny and d44A rear-end befor i bought my mj a couple months ago..... and i loved it had it lifted 5inches on 33's and i cruelalized that poor jeep and it never skipped a beat... the only thing i will say about the tranny is extend the vent line and keep the fluid clean and u won't have any issues as for the d44a yes they r not great but id rather have that then a dana 35 any day just because of the axel diffreance... and the best thing to do to keep the life of the d44a is to toss a small bottle of friction modifyer in with the gear oil to keep the heat down some... cause they can heat up and spin the pumpkin and nevr jack the back up wiht the jack under the pumpkin cause u can crack it!!! but i would deffintly buy another one in a heart beat... my old one came back up for sale on kijiji and i have been thinkin long and hard about buyin it back just cause it was such a good running jeep probally the best iv ever had and gas mileage wasnt that bad either for what it was
  13. so after the run in new cumberland i wrapped the back bumper around my tail light into my box side so i figured id do a little trimming lots off rott and dough on the box sides just another day in nova sctotia lol ... but this quick fix will get me by till i find another box ... was thinkin a step side ranger box would look kinda cool and be diffrent from what i was reading they will fit the MJ's cause a rust free mj box up here will run u close to $1000 this is one side befor cutting Image Not Found and after i cut the wheel wells and back side of box don't look to bad need to make a brace to keep the box side from flappin in the wind tho
  14. is their a hose like the one in ur pic all ready on ur diff?..... if not on the back top left hand side of ur front diff u will see a whitish peice of plastic thats were ur vent is or could be a vent tube on ur tranny?
  15. a 350 + 36" tires and stock d35 and d30 ur asking for awhole lot of trouble ....ur pushin the limits just with ur 4cyl and stock axels on 36"s..... if u go bigger on ur engine i would be tryin to find ford 3/4 ton axels at the least thats alot of tourque and weaight on those tooth picks axels should be ur next investment
