UnionMJ Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 1988 Jeep Comanche Pioneer "Redscare" 4.0L Renix/ AW4 Automatic/ NP 231 Command Trac/ CAD Disconnect HP Dana 30/ Dana 35 non c-clip/ 119" wheelbase Build date: Unknown (scrapped before I looked) Bought: April 21st, 2015 Current Location: Waterloo,IA Status: Scrapped on August 6th, 2015 Notes: This Jeep was the long wheel base model, so it had the 7ft box. I thought that was pretty cool since my other comanche, which I still have, is a swb, so having the long wheel base and bigger truck box was cool. In my opinion, it rode better plus I liked the 23.5 gallon tank. It's like the long wheel base MJ's were the better ones I think. It had a factory front skid and tcase skid plate. Unfortunately no fuel tank skid. Luckily, I took them off to put on my other MJ. Also had the more heavy duty rear bumper which I thought every comanche should of came with instead of the cheap looking thin steel ones. As you will see in the pictures, I got it with a 7ft Aluminum truck topper which had lights wired in. The cool thing was that they had a carpet cover sitting in the bed so you could haul stuff comfortably. It would've been cool to camp in I think, it looked cozy. :rotfl2: What made this jeep different from the rest? It was tough. I mean look at it, :fs1: This thing was never washed and I never washed it. It was rusted out pretty bad and the frame was splitting where the truck bed meets the cab at the bend. I only had it for a couple of months, but I used it like a real jeep, and she didn't break down once. Note this thing has 212k on the dial. I broke it in and used it harder than I use my other MJ, which is mint. So, I know what it's like to have a beater and a garage fairy, even though mine sits outside. This truck was the best $750 I spent. Cheap and Fun! The PO's family had it for most of it's life and I still have all the papers for it, since it was ordered, which is cool being in 1988. :thumbsup: It was Colorado Red exterior, Charcoal Canyon interior, Bench seat :fs1:, cloth, and column shift :doh: I scrapped it because of the rust. :shake: It was on it's last legs, besides the drive terrain, that was solid! :brows: Since it was solid, I used it in my other MJ, which was a 2.5L TBI, and 2WD, which is sooo underpowered! It was a donor truck and served my well! R.I.P. Redscare Toughest Stock MJ out there! :rock on: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
