Siskiyou Mike Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 The truck was made in February of 1989, and I bought it in May of 1989. It has a bit over 170k on the odometer, and it has only failed to start one time--an eight year old battery just up and died. It is the long bed, bright white color, long ton with the window sticker. I know it has the Dana 44 on the rear, but not at all sure what is up front. Except for infrequent oil changes, it has received little attention until now, though it has almost always been garaged. I normally spend winters in Mexico fishing, but this year I am staying home in Northern California and working around the house to keep busy. So far I have changed the Comanche's oil, put in new plugs and wires, and in a new fuel filter and air filter. I also had new tires put on, the last ones were on for 15 years, but instead of the OEM 225 75r 15, I had them put on 235 75r 15 (although the tires do not rub, I do have a new noise when any small bumps are hit--perhaps the shocks toping out?).
