KyleSVT's 87 Comanche

[KyleSVT]

Hey Guys! The search is finally over! Found a Comanche.

I'll be posting more about it later but here is the first video I made. Can't wait to make more videos on the truck and hopefully bring some more people to the Comanche world and to this wonderful forum.

I saw your video, I like the truck!  I agree about the headlights, a more stock looking light would be good.

 

Your truck is very pretty, I particularly like the tire and wheel combo.

 I wish mine looked HALF as good

Great story and looks really good. Don't understand why the PO repainted it though, the old Colorado Red job looked fine. Anyways put her up in the registry and ill get you a build sheet.

She sure is slow LOL But so much fun to drive. getting used to manual steering, I kinda like it lol. Got into my TJ today and even with 35s felt hilariously light

Welcome to owning a 2.5L. That little engine will take you anywhere and not care. Wonder what gearing you have out back though if you say she is slow. Otherwise she sounds healthy.

If think 3.55s, I believe that’s what all 4 speeds came with.

a regear will put a lot more spunk you her step   

[fiatslug87]

Are you going to post in the registry or is this just a commercial for your YouTube channel?

Yes! Not sure what gears are in it but might look into that. Thanks for the tip!

[Pete M]

you can check the ratio by jacking up one rear tire, putting the trans in neutral, then spin the tire exactly twice while counting the driveshaft rotations.  3 and a half = 3.55s  just over 4 is 4.10  ect.   

if you have a posi then you need to jack up both rear tires and rotate one of them around once (this assumes the other also goes around once) while counting the driveshaft rotations.
