lostissues Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 lights were $36 bucks, Great mod imo. I like those, how is the light output from them? I have some stop/tail/turns like that I will be using and I will have to get a set of backups too.
landlubber Posted September 2, 2012 Author Posted September 2, 2012 I was impressed by the output from the LED's. I bought the cheapest ones I could find on ebay, If you opt for a more pricey set it would probably be better. I would say it increased my output by 4 or 5 times at the least, and the field of view is much wider and higher than before, definitely a recommended install.
landlubber Posted October 23, 2012 Author Posted October 23, 2012 Got some poly control arm bushings for the comanche, getting tired of the clunking and such. http://www.quadratec.com/products/76158_84X_PG.htm Started putting them in today, what a pain, only managed to get one of the uppers in before I had to call it and put it all together and head home. does anyone know of any place to get the sleeves for the bushings? the process would be at least twice as fast if I had fresh sleeves to press the new bushings into as opposed to pressing the old bushings out and then the new ones in.
landlubber Posted March 6, 2013 Author Posted March 6, 2013 This past weekend I decided to see about my exhaust leak, and got in the zone and also took off the front fender flares and trimmed the (rusty) fenders and pulled out the swaybar. And the pile of parts left over. Gotta see about a few more things maybe this weekend. Feels good to work on it again.
landlubber Posted March 16, 2013 Author Posted March 16, 2013 Had this week off from school, did a good amount of offroading. Didnt break anything terrible, only caved in the B pillar a little bit on the passenger side (dangers of no-doors wheeling). Had fun though, a good spring break.
landlubber Posted January 29, 2014 Author Posted January 29, 2014 I haven't been on here in a while but figured I would update this thread.This comanche has been sitting for a while now, it was getting very rusty in some important areas. Where the leaf spring mounts to the "frame" rail let go when I was driving it last year. It was pretty soft there and by the rear shocks and a few spots under the cab.I had already bought another (#3) one and was planning on fixing that up and DD'ing it except for the winter. So I just pulled the engine from the camo one and put it in that. (new comanche needed a cam and lifters at least - po said it had burned valves also).one of the last pics I had of it when it was on the road and how it has been sitting. Not sure what I am going to do with it yet.
AeroNautical Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 damn shame to see her go, bad @$$ paint job.
landlubber Posted January 4, 2015 Author Posted January 4, 2015 Thanks, I still have it sitting around. Every now and then i go and pull some more parts off it to use. I really miss driving it.
AeroNautical Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 What kind of roof bar did you use? I'm looking for something like that to mount lights and tether.
landlubber Posted January 5, 2015 Author Posted January 5, 2015 I got it from a cherokee I saw at the junk yard, fit perfectly and held up well to canoes and such. It was a yakima iirc.
landlubber Posted June 25, 2018 Author Posted June 25, 2018 After a few years of sitting I finally stripped this thing down and scrapped it this past week. Sad day but boy she was rusty, gotta unload some parts now.
