is that flexed to bumpstop? it kinda looks like you stopped when the tire got to the fender, more backspace on the wheels could help the stuff factor.

i put a tool box in the bed for my extra batteries, but thats cause I'm adding 4. ...4 6v 260ah batteries in a kobalt chest, with 2 power inverters 800w and 1800w. all this powers a 50a heater, block heater, coolant circ heater, and any power tool i need. charging off a second alt, 190a upgrade cs130. (the preheat system is hooked to a keyfob remote) :yes: sorry for the :hijack: hijac just couldnt keep it to my self anymore, its not complete yet but when it is there will be a build thread. oh, both batteries should be the same type, brand and age or they will die prematurely. yes I'm crazy....

it really wasnt that far back, rust seems that technology is light years beyond using it. wow win 3.1 :idea: that reminds me of wolfenstein for dos, I'm gunna find that. i still have my dialer doubt it would still be usefull

whats dial-up? :dunno: my memory is real hazy :chillin: ....

Not true. Had a friend get busted like that in a private parking lot. Got a ticket for "Performance Driving"... it was like a 4 point ticket! proly depends on where... cop told me, said as long as management isnt out there flagn him down he can't do squat.... after stopping me and running license, insurance, registration... i made sure to spin a few in front of him before leaving.

i don't know how not to drive sideways :yes: .........summer sucks, eats my tires

mc d's parking lot is private property :brows: .... therefor... no traffic laws the more you kno the less you stress the fuzzz

given enough time the list will see at least 30. ide love to join the happy list but 145 for tail light boxes + 100 for the lights + shipping to ak (no less than 50)..... this thread makes me happy for all comanche kind but sad i gotta be a cheap sob...

well.... gl3 originaly, don't use gl5 it will eat your brass sincros. jeep says use 10w30 motor oil, it works good.

finish your project first, i hate missn out on spring melt :yes: , mabe ill get one built before then

the re kit comes with a rear extended brake line for the xj, it is the same as stock length mj. the front brake lines can be moved down carefully

my rear... fold down from an amc eagle thats a tuf question cause i have to factor shipping to ak... i was looking into the tomken tow plate,http://www.quadratec.com/products/76045_801.htm for $115 and $90 shipping :ack: but yours is more hidden which i like but i think i can get one made for that price... or buy a welder, the list is sooo long

tell me about that front receiver.... custom?.... i want one, how much?

i like the newer clip, but i think it depends on what the whole scheme of the truck will be. i dislike the newer bumper, and i hate the way miss match flairs look. in my opinion, aesthetically speaking, if you don't have an aftermarket/offroad style bumper you have to use the newer oe bumper. if you use the newer bumper, the front flairs are mandetory. if you have late model front flairs, early model rear flairs look dated. i think tj rears would look ok with this setup but not sure, one mite be forced to go flat bed :brows: after all that ide consider how the rear bumper will look with the setup. then the mirrors would come to mind.early model would look a bit dated but I'm not real fond of the new ones... argg!!! whats a guy to do??? i think ima do it (some day) but ill probly be unsatisfied till i get the truck evened out. :typing: too much? this has been on my mind too. :wall:

nothing "better" for a bolt on, without buying adapter plates. but youll find few that feel the need for stronger than the aw4, its not bullet proof but its a pretty stout tranny. use wiki to look through the options, all from dodge...yj's tf999 zj's 42re,44re and others tj's 42rle and wj's also used 42re

I'm not big on swag , but am more than willing to donate. just curious... what are the costs of running this site? monetarily...not to mention the constant supervising responsibilities. ide even pay a mandatory membership fee to keep the adds out!

better than what? for a bolt on tranny upgrade the answer is auto no and manual yes

no we have both lwb and swb suggestions to make it less confusing welcome. added the underscores to keep it from compacting when i copy and paist

your "genuine official 1989 Jeep Comanche Service Manual" is stating the two 5 speed manual trannys offered '86-'89, (the ax-15 replaced the ba10-5 in mid '89)... in '89 4.0l came with either the ba10-5 or the ax-15, the 2.5l came with the ax-5. :mad: dam lack of words per minute.... you beat me

kobalt chest fits tite but requires trimming for the gass filler hump and releif cuts on the back wall. not a big deal unless you pay retail for it. the bulkhead (front wall of bed) is .5" narrower at the bottom than at the rails
