ridergoatee Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 Grabbed hold of another Manche and followed that up w/another cherokee!(not in the pic). Gonna have to get enrolled in a 12 step jeep program! :nuts: The new manche is a 92 4.0L in 87 skin. no rust anywhere! 92 cherokee in garage being my parts bin. Gonna probably let go of the 86 manche. Will find it a good home though.Image Not Found Image Not Found
ridergoatee Posted December 30, 2007 Author Posted December 30, 2007 The 92' manche is a project in the works, got it lifted where I want it, has 32's on it now but with a little trimming I'll stuff 33's on it. picked up a Dana 44 rear today at the junkyard. Started out as a 2wd,by the way. Got front axle ready with superflex trac bar,skyjacker CA's. Will use the np231 and transmission outta the 92 xj i'm partin out. Will swap out the dash and cluster with tilt steering also.
Jeepinmanch Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 Where at in colorado? I have 3 manches in my driveway
Jeepinmanch Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 Would you part with the rollbar seperately?
ridergoatee Posted December 30, 2007 Author Posted December 30, 2007 guess you're aware it's a long bed roll bar. Kinda want to sell it with the truck but I'm open to consider offers.
comancheon33 Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 The 92 you just bought came from a friend of mine out there in the Loveland area. I have the original box of that one on my 91. What a small world. How did John treat ya?
ridergoatee Posted December 30, 2007 Author Posted December 30, 2007 WOW, imagine that! I forgot all about this manche's origin. John was great, we still stay in touch and have future wheelin plans when I get this one up and ready.
comancheon33 Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 He is a great guy. I have known him for years. I just chatted with him this afternoon he is back here in Iowa for the holidays. This week he a friend of his are building bumpers and a longarm for his XJ that he has now. He is to blame for this Jeep illness I now have.
ridergoatee Posted December 30, 2007 Author Posted December 30, 2007 Knew he was gettin ready to upgrade his xj, he's had some pretty nice rides in the past too. love the pic of the manche standing on it's stinger! He and a friend(nice guy with a full size 4x4, whose name is escaping me @ the moment) came down to the springs on thanksgiving day and went wheelin'. Wanted to go but had prior plans. They said they had a blast. John is super and I look forward to hitting a few trails with him. Tell him if you talk at em before i do, to go ahead and build me a couple sets of bumpers if he gets bored! :rotf: ko
comancheon33 Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 I will do. I am planning on making it out there with my MJ. He keeps pushing but I just havent had the time. One of these days I be four wheelin in Colorado.
Eliminator89 Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 If this "12 step program" involves buying 12 Jeeps, enroll me now! I'm nearly half way done already! No, wait a mintue, I AM half way done! Losing count over here. 64 Gladiator 65 Gladiator 81 J20 88 Comanche 89 Comanche 90 Cherokee Only 6 more to go...
Jeepinmanch Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 Actually two of my Jeeps are lwb so yes I noticed right off the bat that it was for a longbed.
WahooSteeler Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 goatee, do you have pics of your blue one on here anywhere? from a distance that thing looks pretty sweet.
Jeepinmanch Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 I'm still interested in the rollbar if you will part with it. :brows:
