Picked up a 8.8 that was soa with u bolt eliminators for a Comanche, 4.10s, 31 spline, disc brakes and lsd. And a 4.10 Dana 30. 400 bucks. They both need some love. And I gotta cut off mounts since it will go back to spring under. But not bad I must say. I also learned I need a new drivers side door seal pronto. I took s shower at the car wash and so did my interior it was so bad... I guess the road noise should have been my cue.

What soft line did you use? kept the 7/16's fitting i assume? Whatever brake line part number I saw in the sticky section on here. I I had to put a new fitting on hard line to work since I changed it up when deleting load sensing valve

I have axles to build next but unfortunately surgery is gonna halt progress for a couple months.... In the meantime I hated my rack city stance so I added 3/4 spacers to front. Then jcr finally shipped me my non-winch bumper. I decided to keep weight down and due to the 4.5 trees In the desert of Idaho I probably won't need one anyways

I have only broken bleeders that have been installed for 15 years. I have never had a problem with speed bleeders and I have them for a long time. I also go thru and crack them open yearly so they don't freeze later. I don't find them to be a gimmick. They are cheap and just as good as normal bleeder screws in my opinion. But to each their own.

Speed bleeders. 10 bucks a set, easy one man job. Just crack open and pump brakes until your good to go Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks! Tonight decided to install my iron rock tie rod, all new ends and steering stabilizer. Wow my Jeep drives down the road like a normal vehicle again. Of course I love poser pics so why not another one.

Update.... After rummaging threw my parts and using some stuff I got, the Comanche sits a little taller and has some new goodies. Still waiting on steering before it's back to being a daily driver again but I like the height. I may go to a 32 depending on if I want to run aftermarket flares or not. I just feel bad cutting this truck up.

I can't believe you would do that to me.... it's cool I got my answer and glad I sparked some good conversation on a topic I didn't really find a ton of info on.

I have been productive when time allows. Installed add a leafs, deleted the garbage load sensor valve and continuing to gather parts for the front. Still waiting on my axles but did order a jcr bumper! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think this thread convinced me not to go soa. I think after I try multiple things I will still be to tall and not happy with the height I get. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was thinking maybe trying to round up some 2wd xj spring to see where it puts me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The 8.8 did yes. That's why I didn't want to hack it up for spring under. I The u bolt eliminators also provide lift so i think I'm gonna be hard pressed to keep this under 5 even using the xj leaves in place of.

Bummer.... I was hoping I could maybe do a xj/mj hybrid and bring it down a inch or two. Maybe this axle will go for sale then Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So I am scoring a 8.8 with 4.10s and disc brakes already soa ready for a Comanche with u bolt eliminators for very cheap. With that being said I figure this Will put me at 6 inches of lift unfortunately. I am trying to keep this rig at 4 to 4.5 inches if at all possible. I did some searching but figured I would get some first hand experience from anyone who has tried to stay as low as possible soa. Thanks! Worst case scenario i change it to spring under but it seemed handy it was already setup. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wait the mj factory trackbar bracket is different than an xj? It's the exact same frame up front and trackbar Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It did thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am picking up a new jks trackbar new part #ogs125 and trying to figure out the frame side mounting for the johnny joint. They do not offer a trackbar bracket so I am confused whose drop bracket I will need to use with this trackbar. Searched for pics online but can't seem to find the answer to my stupid question.

A 3 inch lift for a Cherokee and some quick disconnects for a little taller lift. I only plan on probably using the coils and discos. I'm picking up a jks trackbar this weekend and probably and probably putting in a iron rock off-road order soon. I have had good luck with their suspension parts. Not sure on a shock yet. 5100s seem to always work out well and I like the ride quality. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Decided I wanted to see on a nighttime road trip to wa this weekend. Upgraded the headlight harnesses, hella h4 housings and Amazon cheapo led bro lights. I'll try out some h4 led lamps in the near future and see how they do. Comparison for reference Then I negotiated a trade for some rc parts new never opened for a set of wheels and some Jeep labor in the future. Trying to slowly pick up all the parts and start the real build on this. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not really an awesome update but picked up some tires and d windows to get by as I start building this thing. It has to make a road trip to 500 miles next weekend all for a plastic bedliner for the Comanche! And I picked up a truck box I will plastidip black and install since it's ugly heavy duty and white. I am picking up a 8.8 with 4.10s discs and already soa with u bolt eliminators ready for a Comanche with a matching 4.10 Dana 30 front. Way taller then i want to be so I need to figure out how to build some lead packs in the rear to keep it around 4.5 to 5 inches. Then I don't have to go overkill in the front of this thing since it won't be doing any real difficult trails. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I want! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I see. Well I still need the spare tire mount. So I'll take it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had this in my truck. Is this what your talking about? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Pics please? I'll probably take it though... thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
