Been driving and enjoying the Comanche lately, there isn't really anywhere to take a 2wd jeep where I moved to, so it's going to be a street and show truck until I get the 4x4 going

 

 

And on that note, I guess my winter project is decided for me. 

 

Decided to bust out the TTB axles and start cleaning them up. Just wire brushed a printed for now. There will be a ton of fit up, off and on, and sliding along the ground until these are final mounted, at which time I'll finish in black of course.

IIRC Disney OK had some 2wd prerunner type stuff in some areas. Rush springs in Jane MO is also a great park and has a little bit of everything. Project is looking good

Just stopping in for an update...

Been driving the trucks on the weekends here and there while I can. Soon enough the snow will be here and itll be put away until after new years. 

It is a menace on the streets, first is useless, second is almost useless, third finally gets some traction.

But the 3.07 gearing needs to go, fourth gear will do 80MPH at 2200ish RPM. 5th isnt really achievable.

Planning to go with 4.56 gears as this truck will probably end up on 35s at least, if not 37s.

Have been dragging my feet, thinking I wouldnt be keeping the Dana 44 in the rear, but it is honestly doing just fine. Even the 250K mile LSD still locks both tires together with all 550+ HP.

It feels really good to have some miles on this truck, after years of it having issues with the LS, this engine in it now is strong and healthy. I would argue this much power is too much, I don't trust anyone to drive it, but it is a ton of fun lighting up 33's like its nothing.
