Mean Chuck Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Hello, My name is Chuck My 1988 Comanche Pioneer- 4.0 5-speed 112k miles 4" lift, not sure what brand but it is old and horrible 31x10.5 BFG mud terrains cable axle lock conversion and all the exterior add ons that you see (which I am sure you know what they are so I won't list them. I have had this for almost two years and is my fourth Jeep. I bought my first one when I was 14 and it was a 1970 Jeepster that I rescued from a woods and worked on all through high school and had on the road for a little bit of that time. I have also had a '88 4.0 Cherokee and a '86 2.5 Cherokee. I am getting ready to re-do the suspension and axles and I want to make the underside look as good as the top side. I plan on doing the RE 3.5 up front and the Hell Creek springs in the rear and either a Dana 44 or 8.8 Ford in the rear with a posi or a locker and possibly run 4.10s. I also want to put TJ rear flares all the way around and a 97 or newer grill and maybe a pre-runner bumper at some point. I can't wait to finish up my other projects that I have going right now and rip into this this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trader ray Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Your truck is I quess what they remembered when they made mine, black, 2.5, I have the 5 speed and I also have the zj wheels and seats. I have a tennessee truck, and have pulled the rubber back on the floor and it is clean. No rust. My trucks body has had more abuse than yours though. But it is a jeep, it can take it.

dasbulliwagen Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Ive been submitting here for a while, finnally got around to taking pics and going through photobucket. easier than I thought. here's my baby, 1987 Sportruck 2.5, AX4, 2wd, 3:55 R+P I'm in the process of converting to 4x4 with 4:10 gears. Ive already added the AC and Power steering, and added a cold air intake I had laying around after finding out I needed to lose the airbox to have room for the other stuff, and I think it looks cool, though any increase in power is little to none. here's pics of the cold air, and my Dodoge caravan power steering resevior. My donor truck is a 1986 2.8 V6 4x4 with bucket seats, AC, PS, tilt column, and rust free. The PO bought it running and driving with a knocking engine, imagine that in a 2.8! The body is rough in a few places but very solid. I think this may turn into a future project with who knows what kind of motor...maybe a V8???? The owner of the dealer I work for has a 1988 Comanche Olympic Edition 4.0 4x4 SWB...its been having brake problems for years and hes now trying to get me to see if I can fix it...I'm not sure though... too many hands been in it! I told him Id swap the MC assy from my 86 to see if it would help..we'll see. here's the pics of the 88. And we have this little beauty for sale on the lot! Any takers??? And Ill throw this in cause I like it! Image Not Found And here is my other baby... Ghia Marie...riding in the MJ, she likes it because she can see out all the windows!

WahooSteeler Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 All very nice, and cute kid! Those 1/2 cab Unlimiteds are made nearby in NC correct? I would love to have one of those and add 16 inches to the back and have my modern day Scrambler. I wonder why they, or nobody else that I know of, have not done that? Wheelbase of the Unlimited is EXACTLY the same as CJ-8/Scrambler, bed would just need 16 inches to match specs there. If you want to sell the 86 "as is", chicofuentes might take it. You just need to add some lime green fuzzy balls to your headliner cuz he's been lookin' for a lowrider! :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cnickgo Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Picked this old girl up the other day. Already have an XJ and you would recognize me from NAXJA. '88 SWB 2wd Pioneer. 4.0 and pukegoat. A project for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
