Oh yeah burnt the hell out of that throw out bearing. Wouldn't you know it, I was on my way to work. Yep custom intake and open up air flow I, someone else on CC has done similiar using a speaker mesh to cover as to mine is just open. Attempted to do CAD flip but needed to jack up truck to aline 2 piece shaft for colar to slide over. Someone elses photo on CC but just to show what it looked like before I closed it up. Oh that's my clutch pedal and clutch master push rod linkage Cleaned up both brake and clutch pedal welded clutch pedal Reinstalled, just wish I could have removerd the hanger for clean up too.

I purchased this Comanche a few weeks back for $500. towed it home on a dolly with the hood tied down. I figured I would save it and see how the repairs go. I looked her over good and she does not have any rust on her and only a few minor dents here and there. She does have the 4.0 with 207 K miles, and a 5sp tranny. Has 3.07 gears in the rear. But it is a 2wd (oh the shame), but that will be rectified. It did not have a dipstick and that was one of the things I wanted to find at the local salvage pick n pull.there was only about 1/2 gallon of water in the coolant system. and mismatched tires. It has not been registered since 2013. So far I did a major tune-up with a new radiator, hoses, and water pump. Cleaned out the inside completely and put in a rear view mirror. Repaired the brake system. replaced the trac bar and a tie-rod end, change the rear differential gear oil. replaced the window regulator. Replace the speed-o-meter cable and the emergency brake cable. All the fuses as well as the flasher relays. I ahve almost gone from stem to stern on her to make sure she is ready for just a daily driver. Plans for it; make it a 4wd as I find a Cherokee donor vehicle. I will do a 3" or 4" lift on it and add 31"or 32" tires. new bumpers. and do the body work. it is a toss of whether to paint her or just do a vinyl camo wrap from Mossy-oak. Put 3.54 gears in it and change the rear axle to Dana 44 and the front to a Dana 30hp. there are ideas running around to change the renix out and go with a newer electrical system but I am not sure if I am ready for that. I will upgrade the renix system for now. I am also thinking of putting on the 97+ doors to rid myself of the wing window. I may rebuild the engine. but that will be much latter. This is about all for now. I will keep you posted on what I find as I go along with the refurbishment of the Rascal. .

I recently bought a 1990 Jeep Comanche, Has a 4.0, 5 speed standard, 2wd. Not too sure on all the particulars of it, as I am new to jeeps. What kind of upgrades do you guys recommend? I'm going for usability, and fuel economy mostly. I have a bigger truck to pull heavy stuff but I'd like to do some towing with this (only a small trailer, max of 1400 lbs). It's not going to be used for off road, mostly just will see highway and gravel roads. I currently have 225/75 R15's on it. Should I be looking at going with a different size? Any help is greatly appreciated!

I've searched through all the DIY pages for upgrades from Grand Cherokees. I only found two, upper control arms and the dual brake booster, and I thought there were more. Does anyone have a list of what parts to strip from a WJ if you get ahold of a parts vehicle? Or perhaps links atleast?
