New Project - 89 Comanche 4X4

[Pfrenet]

I finally found a 4X4 at a decent price ($500). It was used a a plow truck for last 3 years, but it runs very smooth. Its a 89 Comanche, LWB, 4.0, Automatic. Dana35 rear end, so front is probably a Dana 30, hadn't had much time to check everything out. Interior is in very good shape, no tears in the seat.

 

Will check in the Spring to see how the frame is (looks good, but will see better once I take the box off), Truck has some rust, doesn't look too bad with the exception of the box, some rust on the rockers, floors feel solid. The drive train feels very solid and runs smooth, shifts into 4 wheel with no problems. I've actually used it many times already to push snow as we had 4 snow storms withing 7 days here (over 3 feet of snow). Truck worked excellent.

 

If all works out I will put a 97+ front end, 6" lift and few other mods and of course get rid of the plow

 

I also now have the option to convert my 88 to 4X4 in the event there is a problem with the frame.

 

Here's a few pics..
