88pioneer Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 The 90 has the AX 15, the 89 might depending on when it was built. Check both for rust, rockers, bedsides, cab corners, o an THE FLOORS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87Warrior Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Welcome. I too have a Wrangler that no longer should be used as a daily driver and came looking for a Comanche to drive every day.... You can see how that worked by looking at my build. I am still driving my rubi. Rust may, or may not be a concern to you. But, if you want a rust free truck you will need to be picky. The truck may still be solid if the body is rusted, but check the uni-body. I personally wanted a 4.0 with the AW4 automatic since both are undeniably solid units. Plus parts for these are easy to come by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
