DREDnot Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 My first Comanche,(my eighth Jeep). 2.5L low output, AW4 auto trans, 4.56 D35, A/C! 219k miles I'm scouring the local yards for the up market options. Got an ebay 2" spacer/shackle lift to go on it. Converted to laredo wingback buckets from a long trashed bench. Arizona Rust Free!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellaheep Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Nice clean MJ! Those floor boards are incredible. :thumbsup: Are you sure about the 4:56 gear ratio in that D35? Never heard of anything from the factory, with an auto deeper than a 3:54/3:55. :dunno: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DREDnot Posted May 12, 2012 Author Share Posted May 12, 2012 I was surprised myself when I cleaned the crust off the axle tag... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DREDnot Posted May 13, 2012 Author Share Posted May 13, 2012 I just happened to see this little quote on the Novak enterprises website in the aw4 page. "The AW4 and the 2.5L engine was a rare combination in the XJ / MJ model Jeeps as spec-to-build. They recieved 4.56 axle ratios." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double check under the firewall padding for rust. That foam likes to trap water and form rust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
