Have any of you'll ran this fuel pump? Did you go with this pump? Where did you mount it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ths XJ will have fewer things to lop off though and you can easily convert to disks using KJ or ZJ parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mounted it where my original fuel filter was underneath the Cab. I was told I didn't need to run a fuel filter with the E2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to be on the lookout for a KJ during my next junkyard scavenger hunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even it there's one inside the tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLDsquaw Posted June 3, 2018 Author Share Posted June 3, 2018 Some updates on the Comanche build.... I am in the process of my SOA conversion but currently I am waiting for new bushings and center pins for my leaf springs. Once I have my leaf springs ready to go I am going to figure out where exactly to weld my shock mounts to my axle. The interior is coming along. I removed the bench seat and completely gutted the moldy carpet to uncover an almost perfect floor. The bench seat is reinstalled and my ignition problem is now fixed. I had to replace my ignition switch box which was a much bigger job than I had anticipated. While I had the dash tore apart, my shop assistant (my girlfriend), decided to detail and clean the gauges. Now when you sit in the cab it feels like you are back in 1989. Next upgrade to the interior is installing my new steering wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLDsquaw Posted April 21, 2019 Author Share Posted April 21, 2019 I just purchased a parts Comanche that might actually be better than my current Comanche. It’s a 1990 Eliminator 4wd. 1 owner with 142k. Does anyone have information about the 1990 Eliminator and what sets it apart from a base model?

Pete M Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 all of the various names are trim packages. the Eliminator package was about top of the line and so came with more things standard (buckets, full gauges, etc). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLDsquaw Posted April 21, 2019 Author Share Posted April 21, 2019 Pete, Did the eliminator have 35 rear and 30 front? Or did it have a 44 in the back. I’m pretty certain I saw a 44 in the rear while looking today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 the 44 was only standard on the metric ton models, but could be ordered on most any MJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
