offroader461 Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 don't use a fram....i had terrible erratic oil pressure and some valve tick upon startup in my 4.0 for many years using a fram (they use a cardboard style filter system inside)...switched over to the Napa gold brand and have a very consistent pressure and no more valve ticking on start up either.
codymanche Posted May 27, 2011 Author Posted May 27, 2011 i had awesome pressure no ticks nothing when i ran them and i don't know what to use next. cuz i would use k&n but i heard they arent the greatest. this is the first i heard about fram on jeep that what all my friends run too no problems.
mj Mike Posted May 29, 2011 Posted May 29, 2011 related post: http://www.comancheclub.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=28748&p=289629&hilit=fram+oil+filters#p289629 & ya that donor rear axle is a D35! I run one of those engine lights from a chevy 1500 also, they are awesome! what type of header are those? they don't look like thy are for a renix? are they H/O?
philbert001 Posted May 29, 2011 Posted May 29, 2011 The engine bay light may be stolen from a chevy, but they were OE in Jeeps! (Just like the chevy steering column and door lock cylinders!) I have one in my manche too! (Stole it from my XJ)
codymanche Posted May 31, 2011 Author Posted May 31, 2011 the headers are from shark motorsports. i got them offline on ebay i asked about them on a form i don't remeber which on tho and yea i love that light its helped a lot
codymanche Posted September 3, 2011 Author Posted September 3, 2011 i been thinking about putting lights on the truck, where a set off running boards would go with these lights? anyone got an idea how many would look good? if u could give me the messure meants of that area that may help. its just for kicks lol. i like a lot of lights! I'm also curious about this too just an idea but i was also think about doing some on the headache rack with these lights on the side and red on the support arms coming down to the bed rail too and of coarse all my lights are gonna be led and a bigger altenator is the plans and maybe another battery. here's a link for the lights. hit me up with ideas and suggestions. yellon - http://www.southwestwheel.com/store/p-4 ... light.aspx red - http://www.southwestwheel.com/store/p-4 ... light.aspx there are pics of the headache rack here on my build just look there. any feed back is taken into consideration. thanks cody

codymanche Posted December 22, 2011 Author Posted December 22, 2011 Well in the last 2 days i have done a lot. I fixed some wiring issues in the dash. Installed my extended brake line installed (front and rear), freeze plugs and pistons installed, crankshaft and camshaft installed.

What a trip!!! can't wait to start working on it again. Got a bunch of looks at the truck though makes you feel good inside!!! Pics Soon!!!!!
cody4359 Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 these little trucks get alot of attention when they are lifted and looking good looks like yours is coming along nicely. what else do you have to do?
codymanche Posted December 23, 2011 Author Posted December 23, 2011 Put the motor back together and put the tranny and t case in as well and then all the lights I added have to get wired up
