urbanMJ Posted June 11, 2006 Posted June 11, 2006 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeep_Comanche Come on guys! Pool your collective knowledge of the comanche on this wiki, let's immortalize the MJ. Let me just add that I absolutely love this Comanche. I was looking for an S-10 project car for a while, until I came across this awesome one of a kind truck.
urbanMJ Posted June 11, 2006 Author Posted June 11, 2006 I just realized this might be better off in the "pub" section
bigd44889 Posted June 12, 2006 Posted June 12, 2006 the listing is not correct thay can with a 4 speed manual also
Oizarod115 Posted June 12, 2006 Posted June 12, 2006 the listing is not correct thay can with a 4 speed manual also yea i just put what i know man, i don't know much bout the 86 trannys. add your knowledge!
87manche Posted June 12, 2006 Posted June 12, 2006 I added to te suspension section. And I added comancheclub to the external links section.
whowey Posted June 12, 2006 Posted June 12, 2006 I corrected the transmission information. Someone should add a piece about the transfer cases.
urbanMJ Posted June 13, 2006 Author Posted June 13, 2006 Sweet. keep it up guys. BTW - how do you identify HD rear axles? "metric tonne package"? Let's get some better pictures in this too! Calling pingpong's monster machine
pingpong Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 I don't know how to post pics :eek: but if someone wants to post pics, I can give pics all the way back to when my rig was stock till now. I represeent the fringe of the MJ guys though :brows: The only thing on my rig that is still Jeep is the drivetrain, and what is left of the body :banana:
Pete M Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 I don't know how to post pics :eek: -Go to a free hosting site like picturetrail.com -Fpllow their instructions for uploading pics -copy the addresses for the pics -come here and click on the IMG tag -paste the address -click on IMg again
whowey Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 I don't know how to post pics :eek: -Go to a free hosting site like picturetrail.com -Fpllow their instructions for uploading pics -copy the addresses for the pics -come here and click on the IMG tag -paste the address -click on IMg again If you use picturetrail its even easier. Host the pics at picturetrail. Click on get image URL's. There will be on called 'image tags for forums'. Copy that link, post it here. Pic will show.
whowey Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 BTW - how do you identify HD rear axles? "metric tonne package"? Yes, also you can from the VIN code. Position 8, will be a letter rather than a number to identify it as a Metric Tonne. But, you could also order the HD axle under the truck without getting the Metric Tonne. In that case, stick your head underneath. If it looks like a bowling ball, its an AMC 20. Look at where the axle tubes come out of the center section. If you follow the edge of the center section up towards the top, DANA put a number on it to identify the axle. A 35C will be cast into Dana 35's and a 44 will be cast into Dana 44's.
urbanMJ Posted June 15, 2006 Author Posted June 15, 2006 8th digit of vin = "L" diff cover is that second one. sweet, I have a Dana 35 what does this mean though? lol. I have no idea what I have in my hands, is it a locker? how much is it worth? I'm planning on replacing the entire rear end with an axle with 4 trailing arms and a watts linkage. So I may want to sell it to offset the costs. I got this jeep for $500. btw
Stumpy Posted June 15, 2006 Posted June 15, 2006 8th digit should be the engine size....which is the 4.0L I6.
Oizarod115 Posted June 15, 2006 Posted June 15, 2006 don't think theres much of a market for selling a 35 to offset those costs. maybe someone will pick it up... of course thats if you pay them gas money ;)
whowey Posted June 16, 2006 Posted June 16, 2006 8th digit should be the engine size....which is the 4.0L I6. Yes, on a GM. No, on a Comanche. 4th digit is the engine. M is the 4.0l
