neohic Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 We all have those dirty little secrets, eh? I think it's a common thought in all of our heads to own a lowered, street bound Comanche. I mean, think about it... so many of us enjoy our MJs on the trail on occasion, why not enjoy a sweet little road racer on occasion instead? This month, I really love this one. This month is all for... YEAR/MODEL ● 1992 Comanche Eliminator – 348,000 miles on the odometerENGINE/PERFORMANCE ● 4.0L H.O. out of a ’98 with a ’99 intake manifold, Dynomax exhaustDRIVETRAIN ● AX-15, front beam, rear Dana 35 – I have a 44 with 3.73’s, a trac-loc and Explorer disc brakes waiting to be swapped inCOOLING ● Factory plus a late model e-fan swapELECTRICAL/IGNITION ● FactorySUSPENSION/STEERING ● ZJ rear springs for the front giving 2”s of drop, 2” lowering blocks plus XJ shackles to even out the rear. Upgraded swaybar in the front and would like to do the Chevy Blazer swaybar mod in the rearINTERIOR ● Factory, I added a cup holder at one point but it broke. It’s hard to drink coffee with a 5 speed. LED bulbs in the kick panels and B pillars and an Ebay shift knobBRAKES ● ’96 brake booster/master cylinder swap, rear discs comingLIGHTING ● Hella E Code lenses and bulbs and a 12ga wiring harness, factory fogs. EXTERIOR ● Original Colorado Red paint, eventually would like to repaint it and add back the factory Eliminator body stickers. Bed has some sort of DIY bed liner that is slowly disappearingWHEELS/TIRES ● TJ Rubicon wheels wrapped in Yokohama 235’sMISCELLANEOUS ● Still rocking the factory cassette deck, the heads need cleaning FULL BUILD THREAD HERE Remember That One Time?... Tell Us Your Best MJ Story ● I started getting interested in cars when there were still a fair amount of Comanche’s on the road and always thought they were a cool truck. I was an XJ owner for a long time and love the platform. Eventually decided to pull the trigger and after about a year of searching and envying my buddies MJ’s I landed this one and have loved owning and driving it. Every so often people comment on it in a parking lot which is always nice or say I didn't know Jeep made a pickup.CC is Awesome!... Why Do You Think So? ● Comanche Club is a great community with a wealth of technical knowledge. I never cease to be amazed at the quality of work that individuals are putting into building and restoring these trucks. I thought I knew a lot about the XJ/MJ coming into CC, but I have learned a lot since joining and gotten a lot of inspiration for my own build. ●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●● Way to go, Scott! Perfect year... perfect color... perfect stance... dare I say it?... perfect truck! I can speak the same words as many of us here by saying that someday I'll have a hot rod Comanche of my own. Until then, it's trucks like yours that keep that interest going. Real good lookin' MJ, Scott. Real nice! -Ben This post has been promoted to an article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOrnbrod Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I love this truck! Excellent job and tastefully done. Do do the rear Blazer sway bar - you will love it on that lowered beauty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
