Comanche SS Posted April 12, 2021 Author Posted April 12, 2021 Just a life update.My new king shepherd is a fan, already marked her territory in the bed.Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
Comanche SS Posted April 17, 2021 Author Posted April 17, 2021 In over two years of ownership, it hasn't see a true day off road.That changes tomorrow, taking it to the dunes. Will hopefully get some photos!Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
Comanche SS Posted April 18, 2021 Author Posted April 18, 2021 That’s one hell of a tow rig 4500HD... Couldn't even tell the trailer or comanche were back there, it was this or a 6500HD Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
Comanche SS Posted April 18, 2021 Author Posted April 18, 2021 awesome pup. don't go jumping it now. Thanks!It did really well today, accidently jumped it once, no major damage just some rubbing and a new stain in the seat...It does really well in the go fast stuff, needs shock work as well as bump stop work.Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
Pete M Posted April 18, 2021 Posted April 18, 2021 that's a heck of a test drive what's the plan for bumpers?
Comanche SS Posted April 18, 2021 Author Posted April 18, 2021 that's a heck of a test drive what's the plan for bumpers?I have the original bumper sitting in my garage,But eventually I want the area fan stubby bumper I had in my last xj. The outer parts come off and make it a stubbySent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
Comanche SS Posted April 23, 2021 Author Posted April 23, 2021 Had to...Not bad for stock springs and whatnotSent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
Comanche SS Posted July 8, 2021 Author Posted July 8, 2021 Some oddly shaped front axle(s) followed me home today... And tomorrow some oddly expensive leaf springs are supposedly going to follow me home too...
Comanche SS Posted July 9, 2021 Author Posted July 9, 2021 Got the remainder of my parts today. Some used deavers that I'll bastard pack with my current leaves to work in the mj.And the ttb third member. Doing a ton of research and reading getting ready for the swap.Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
Comanche SS Posted July 14, 2021 Author Posted July 14, 2021 The front axle had it's last voyage under the jeep today.It's ready for tear downSent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
Comanche SS Posted July 19, 2021 Author Posted July 19, 2021 Got the front axle and suspension all out and started cleaning the frame from the years of road grime and leaks it used to have.Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
MiNi Beast Posted July 19, 2021 Posted July 19, 2021 Progress. Need to deal with my leaf springs as well. Not sure how I'm going to go about combining the leafs to get desired lift and hauling capacity. Perhaps just measure off the rear bumper to ground 🤔 what you thinking?
Comanche SS Posted July 19, 2021 Author Posted July 19, 2021 My plan so far is trial and error since I don't think anyone has done exactly what I am shooting for before. I'll post my findings though so hopefully others can use itSent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
Comanche SS Posted July 22, 2021 Author Posted July 22, 2021 Still lots of work to do, but the process has begun Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
Comanche SS Posted July 22, 2021 Author Posted July 22, 2021 *waiting patiently to move to Epic threads* Haha! At what point is it worthy Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
Comanche SS Posted July 24, 2021 Author Posted July 24, 2021 More progress and parts... Notice I am trying to make it easy installation utilizing the factory holes for track bar mounts...conveniently located on both sides of the frame due to the MJ/XJ being offered in both LHD & RHD. Although after bolting in...it will be welded.
