MuXJ Posted Thursday at 05:14 PM Posted Thursday at 05:14 PM Finally purchased my dream truck '88 Jeep Comanche. It's rough around the edges (literally, the whole truck is Rhinolined) but with some hard work and patience it will be looking great! I will document my progress here, and put a build list below, along with my plans for it. Excited to be part of the community, especially after owning XJs my entire life. Pictures from the day I bought it below. --Build List -- Mishimoto aluminum radiator Mishimoto coolant hoses Mishimoto thermostat Mishimoto electric fanned transmission cooler Lifted 6.5 on 35s Longarm kit Durango steering box Ironman steering box brace 1/4" front bumper tie in brackets for winch and steering box support Dirt bound one ton steering Fox super duty steering stabilizer Dana 30 trussed and gusseted 1/4" plated diff covers Chromoly axle shafts Yukon front air locker Chrysler 8.25 rear Yukon limited slip rear (4.58) Metalcloak dual rate coils Acos coil spacers Fox remote reservoir shocks Stainless steel brake lines New brake booster and reservoir Adam's drive shafts Dirt bound rock sliders JCR front and rear bumpers Badlands 12k winch 97-01 front end conversion Removable doors Hood vents
MuXJ Posted Thursday at 05:20 PM Author Posted Thursday at 05:20 PM Updates so far. Full service, along with new oil pan, oil pan gasket, and rear main seal. I also sanded down and painted the axles and some of the suspension components. Went ahead and redid the 97-01 front end so I can have flares and also spliced in the wiring for the marker lights. Purchased Comanche #2 to poach the interior, and it is cleaning up extremely nice! Headliner reupholstered with a wine colored suede, matches close enough for $12! Floor pans next...
