Hey All - Changing the diff fluid in my kid's 89 Comanche that is a bit of a Frankentruck. It was converted by someone else to 4WD when we bought it. It's got a Chrysler 8.25 in the back, which I've never worked on. Is this a track lock diff? I jacked both wheels up and when you spin one wheel...

Got an 89 MJ that was converted into 4WD, but not by me so it's a bit of a Frankentruck. Started getting really bad vibrations when under power. Checked all the U-joints, and they're all good. Took out the front drive shaft to make sure that wasn't it, and it's still the same. Now it has started...

My son just picked up an 89 Comanche Eliminator, just converted to 4WD. 4.0L, 5 speed, 6" lift, 31" tires. I'm so jealous. I'd love to show you photos, but I'm not allowed to post attachments for some reason.

I'm going to put an 8.8 in my 91XJ. It looks like there's two dedicated schools of thought on whether or not to weld the axle tubes to the pumpkin. Some say do it, some say don't because it will create a stress point at the weld that is more likely to fracture. I'm going to weld an Iron Rock...

I just put a Lokka in the front of my 91XJ. Love it! I'm going to replace the Dana 35 in the back with a Ford 8.8. Not even sure I need to put a locker back there, but if I did, would another Lokka be a good idea, or something different? I was thinking of an Eaton Detroit Trutrac, but not sure...
