TieDyeJK8 Posted September 1, 2023 Author Share Posted September 1, 2023 All cleaned up Comanche. Installed new exhaust gasket, exhaust manifold, injectors, spark plugs, wires, oil change, tail lights. Running just about perfect now! Next plan is to get the windows tinted plan on getting 35% to the doors/rear window 50-60% for the windshield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EUREKA Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Looka great! On the rear, I go as dark as possible for Comanches, unless you plan on having a campershell on most of the time. Otherwise the cab can be turned into a greenhouse and I'll be one rednecked redneck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my dilemma I have a topper on it about 75% of the time so I can't go too dark I'll probably match the rear with the sides 30-40% then 50-75% on the windshield then for the topper do the same 30-40% that way I should still be able to see out of it. Or I'll have to cave and get a back up camera Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TieDyeJK8 Posted September 5, 2023 Author Share Posted September 5, 2023 Nearly 1k miles this labor day weekend on the jeep with no issues! Noticed one little issue that needs to be fixed. With the Oracle tail lights I did some guessing with wires since my Comanche has 97+ xj wiring the colors are different. Well I ended up swapping the brake light for the running light (so it's always just bright) will have to figure out which two wires need to be swapped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll get a few photos of the seats they just barely fit and the brackets could probably use a trim. they sit a few inches high for me. 14 hours ago, jliddell97 said: I like that jcr bumper.

I'm 6ft tall I had a pretty worn out bench seat before. I sit probably 2-3 inches higher with the corbeau seats. Eventually I'll trim them down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very tall 🙃 have to dip my head down when I'm the first one at a stop light 😂 https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B074LT5B1M?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title light output is close to double what my previous lights were (yellow is from fog lights) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TieDyeJK8 Posted September 22, 2023 Author Share Posted September 22, 2023 Made some Jeep stickers for the back of the Comanche a few days ago thanks to @jpnjake for the cricut template. Picked up a p-300 Rockford 8 inch sub today for $100 to give the jeep some bass. Wired it in and it sounds great. Super happy with how it sounds for being such a little sub. Fits perfectly behind my corbeau seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TieDyeJK8 Posted October 2, 2023 Author Share Posted October 2, 2023 Found a little rust spot on my driver's side rocker panel. Removed all the rust which made it about the side of a quarter. Used some fiberglass body filler to fill in the hole. Since it's bedlined anyways I figured it doesn't need to be perfect perfect just not an eye sore!

Drahcir495 Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Yeah, those seats are sweet! I don't know if I missed it, but are those Napier fender flairs? Can't beat that $30 paint job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't beat that $30 paint job Thanks man! Comfy and good looking but barely fit. Bushwhacker flares! They had a really good sale awhile back I'll eventually get some notch flares but these do the job for now.

TieDyeJK8 Posted October 5, 2023 Author Share Posted October 5, 2023 Ordered a pair of these tonight since my door cards are in rough shape And haven't had much luck finding nice ones. The place is called Turtle laboratory and are making them for 84-96 Cherokees soon. I'll post an update when I get them installed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TieDyeJK8 Posted December 12, 2023 Author Share Posted December 12, 2023 Drove 2 hours south and picked up a comanche bench seat. Super nice quality but will probably end up painting it a different color! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TieDyeJK8 Posted June 14 Author Share Posted June 14 Jeeps getting a new 100% rust free bed! Not that the old one was in bad shape but why not make the Comanche rust free. Going to por15 the frame while the beds off and hopefully get it back on the road within a few days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
