Bounty Hunter Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Looking good, I've got the exact same truck but it's an '89 2.5L 4spd 2wd, same paint as yours but a maroon interior and sunroof. Will be following this thread closely.
Rymanrph Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Why do all the brake work in the back if you're going to swap in a 8.8? Mine 1990 started out pretty similar to that about 7 months ago.

Will be following this thread closely. ya i think this is a 89 titled as a 90 all my brake parts in the front were from a 89. it will be a slow build. Why do all the brake work in the back if you're going to swap in a 8.8? Mine 1990 started out pretty similar to that about 7 months ago. my mom wants me too or i can't drive it and i can't get a petal with the bacl breaks bein crimped off. and its gonna need the hard lines anyway.
HKB3 Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 a little soap & water should be on the top of your list :thumbsup:

Pete M Posted August 18, 2010 Posted August 18, 2010 please tell me you at least got the "kit" with the drop brackets.
92comanche4x4 Posted August 18, 2010 Author Posted August 18, 2010 please tell me you at least got the "kit" with the drop brackets. actually i changed my mind i was reading about them. i ended up going with 4.5in rough country aal kit
Pete M Posted August 18, 2010 Posted August 18, 2010 good call. :thumbsup: AAL? that sounds like a whole lotta lift from an AAL. got a link?
MancheKid86 Posted August 18, 2010 Posted August 18, 2010 wouldnt it the the soa conversion to get the first 3"inches, then with the aal it would add the extra 1 1/2 inches?
Pete M Posted August 18, 2010 Posted August 18, 2010 SOA gives anywhere from 4.5" up to 6" depending on the state of your leafs. the AAL lift sounds like the XJ version of the lift. The MJ version is probably SOA or possibly full leafpacks.
