Pete M Posted July 30, 2009 Posted July 30, 2009 Upgrade your harness to incorporate some relays to power them and your headlights will be bright again. The factory harness sucks. :fs1: Even worse after 20 years.
ComancheKid45 Posted July 30, 2009 Posted July 30, 2009 Ordered new floor pans, Drivers side rocker panel and a POR 15 6 pack Fun is ahead :popcorn:

johnnyc Posted August 3, 2009 Posted August 3, 2009 Extended the LCAs half an inch to lower the front pinion angle. Rides better now. Also lowered the rear of the truck half an inch by installing XJ shackles. Looks just about level now. And installed a Viair 2.5 gallon air tank underneath the truck. I'll be installing the York OBA this week.
CWLONGSHOT Posted August 3, 2009 Posted August 3, 2009 I adjusted the back brakes.. Some stu-nod drove right thru a stop sign and came with-in inches of a head on collision with me today. :headpop: :headpop: I stomped on the brakes and only JUST was able to stop...Guess that brake upgrade should be pushed forward a bit....

trader ray Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 wrote out a damage report for my lawyer as I was rear ended the other night. I hate not being able to do anything to it until the insurance has a look and whatever happens next.
dasbulliwagen Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 I attempted to get my parking brake to work by adding sleeves to the main cable to take up for the longer rear axle cables that came with the 410 axle. It worked for a litlee while, but kept going loose after a few applications. I noticed that the cable where they go into the backing plates are collapsing on themselves...the outer sleeve that is. I guess its time for new cables. I also replaced my missing alternator bolt, put a new one in and then double nutted it. That should keep the alternator in place and the belt tight!
1989pioneer Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 i looked under cab and noticed entire driver side floor rotted out gonna cut and weld this week end.
trader ray Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 I was bored, so I took the gas pedal assembly off from inside and then covered everything I could and removed the rubber foot pads from the brake and clutch and bought a good brand of chrome paint, and painted the pedals and reinstalled the pads, then taped off the gas pedal on my bench and painted it chome as well. Like I said I was bored. lol It all looks good and it seems a little faster in acceleration. lol can't really see it unless you get in the drivers side and look down. I am the only driver.. :nuts:
Mongo Posted August 8, 2009 Posted August 8, 2009 Tried to knock the rust of passenger side door :brows: now there is a hole :fs1: Good news is, i have an excuse to get a new welder.
streetjeep2.5 Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 This is to the praise of not throwing stuff away :cheers: Rummaged through the "stuff" I keep, which my wife wonders why I keep it, and found a pull spring that would work by cutting a few coils off and reshaping the ends to fix the broken spring on my drivers door handle that returns the lever the plunger pushes against! :idea: Guys! Save things. Ya never know! I think this spring has been in my junk stuff for over 20 years!!!
offroader461 Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 *fixed the gas tank seal (was leaking from the last time i changed the pump hose) *resealed the output on the transfercase Today *new catalytic converter *pass emissions

SoloCamo Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 Installed Champion spark plugs designed for the 1991 HO engine into my 1988 renix motor :thumbsup: Seemed to smooth out my idle slightly and run less rich in comparison to the renix model champions. This may also be because they are one step hotter and the fact that I'm running the 19lb ford injectors
Oizarod115 Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 i just finished typing what i did today so i'll just link you! http://www.comancheclub.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=17821
johnnyc Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 Got the York OBA system operational on Thursday. Went wheeling in Big Bear Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Truck did great. But I did get some slight damage to the bed.
