Parker Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Ordered trans shift cable. Had the girlfriend turn it around and back it up to my shop with me picking gears from underneeth. Finished stripping down and cleaning up the 8.8 for it. Maybe posting on here will keep me motivated. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moore89Comanche Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Took the Comanche out for a drive, heard a new knocking coming from the front right. Decided to pull over to check it out. On the left turn, the front right tire popped off and rolled away :(. Had to get her towed away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpdriver1 Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 let it rest in the carport and took sons wrangler to a "go topless day" event. have found when I take the mj to an event, I can barely get parked before the camera hounds show up --- usually we are the only mj there.

Keyav8r Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Drove it to church this morning. Ran good. Everything worked as it should (except, of course, fuel gauge, AC and cruise). Fuel gauge and AC are in the "to do" list. Cruise tends to lock on and accelerate and not disengage regardless of switch position, brake or clutch pedal use. Can be quite exciting so it's disconnected. There's a glitch in the wiring that I haven't been able to track down. Other than that, it's another wonderful day in MJ land!

Keyav8r Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Took her on her second road trip - Trussville to Scottsdoro to Birmingham to Trussville at 70 - 75 MPH most of the trip. Got 18.9 MPG. Not bad for a 91 truck with 180K on the clock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
