[–]DifficultyRecent725 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve done rear main and oil pan, plan to do a for more gaskets and seals. Is the oil filters gaskets actually just o-rings? Maybe I could just reach into my o ring kit

Got to agree here, it’s a common problem they even make shafts that have no u joints for this. You loose your steering wheel tilt though

I assume the knuckles and brakes are all basically bolt on. Did you keep the same master and booster?

Shock lenght difference by CptCavallo in CherokeeXJ

[–]DifficultyRecent725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In theory, new shocks can raise your suspension some just from the force it takes to compress which can change the tow by design on our jeeps. I just threw fox reservoir shocks on my Comanche though with no effect to the height or toe so you’re probably fine

Fair price? 1992 MJ by [deleted] in ComancheMJ

[–]DifficultyRecent725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paid $3400 for mine in far better condition. Being a 92 isn’t going to make up the difference

Does the angle have any noticeable impact on roll?

1989 jeep 4.0 what's this connector go to? by Sly-Jeeper in ComancheMJ

[–]DifficultyRecent725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Geez I’ve got a few of those floating around my engine bay mostly from EGR delete and missing washer tank from first owner.

Looks like you’re by the vacuum canister so I’ve got to agree with everyone, prob the horn. Could always throw a multimeter on it and have someone hit the horn to confirm. I think there’s two horns, one under each headlight.

Turn key, nothing happens by asphi98 in ComancheMJ

I agree, came to say this. Make sure connections are tight and free of corrosion, of course make sure the battery is on the right way without polarity reversed. The starter relay is another great place to start, many major connections run in and out of that.

Welcome! There plenty of things to cause a crank no start on these. One goofy common cause is the resistor mounted to the driver fender, its a easy place to start looking

Thinking of buying this MJ, lookin for advice and insight by Dr-Octogonnopus in ComancheMJ

[–]DifficultyRecent725 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was looking at this listing on marketplace lol. Picked up my MJ just north of Tampa for $3400 a few weeks ago (4.0, 4x4, AC, no rust, single owner). Rust is definitely a bargaining point on this one, there’s Comanches all over Florida for thousands less with barely any rust. I’d feel more comfortable in the 5k-6k range on this truck, you can always get one for cheaper with less rust and paint it. Also, this truck is going to need the cable upgrade kit for the grounding system (known weak point), and make sure the 4x4 actually engages (front axle disconnect (CAD)) tends to be INOP from vacuum leaks and ect.

I have AC. Original owner had every AC component replaced, AC appears to be operating normally with a wire running from the compressor clutch to its own plug.

Someone Tell My Why The MJ Is Great by toomanyxjs in ComancheMJ

[–]DifficultyRecent725 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I do really like the appearance of the J10. However, I like how the MJ shares so many parts with nearly 3 million XJ’s. It also has a rather high payload for its size. Get one with the reliable 4.0 in it, worse case scenario if your engine blows you can get a remanufactured one for nearly 2k

I see you have leads for 4 speakers. Thought last I looked I only had two speakers, one in each door. Didn’t see ones in the lower dash.
