Jeep_Comanche17 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 nice comanche man. i just got a 1990 pioneer long bed for my first truck and I'm stoked. ur pretty lucky ur family is giving u all that money for parts and stuff. i paid $700 for mine (got it from a family friend) but its in pretty rough shape. it needs new brakes, new headliner lol and the exhaust as the current one ends under the pass. seat so she sounds like a diesel lol. she has paint thats sunburned af but she will be getting a matt green or matt black job soon. can't decide on if I'm gonna lift it or not but i will probably have to to fit my wild country 31's. I'm also gonna get a bumper/ brush guard with a 2'' reese adapter as my 8,000lb warn winch is on a custom reese hitch. . :MJ 1: . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackrabbit41 Posted November 22, 2015 Author Share Posted November 22, 2015 Well bad news guys I got all done in the back and started in the front then I realized that the back was too high. Turns out my leaf pack isn't stock so I was about 12 inch lift. I had to Take it all off then out the d35 back in because I need my truck by Monday. So I'll order the springs when I get the money then I'll start again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88whitemanche Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Did you happen to measure with the jack stands on? Or with the tires on and the weight on the floor? Judging by the pic with the 8.8 with jack stands and no tires...it looks like you had a lot of lift... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackrabbit41 Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share Posted December 7, 2015 So HP 30, 8.8, and all lift parts are in. Only hiccup I had was that Lee and I put on a wheel bearing from my old axle but it made it so my rotors hit the ball joint area and therefore the wheel wouldn't turn so I had to go buy a new wheel bearing and put that on. Other then that all is good. I'm probably going to have some driveshaft vibes but I got shims. Ill get a pic of the whole truck tomorrow. I also need to go get an alignment soon.
