HI I just picked up a 1988 Jeep Comanche Pioneer 4x4.
It has the junk ba-10, although rebuilt 2 months ago, still junk lol, 5 spd, and a tired 4.0L 6cyl.
Has about 150,000 miles,
BUT the body is completely RUST FREE!
Which brings me to thinking, This would make a great start for a project MJ.
My main question is, Can a Cummins 4bt fit in the bay, and would it be worth it? Or should I just put an AX-15 alone and keep a 4.0 in there?
I just really want this thing to last and I know deisels are power houses and long lasting.
Now, I know that the 4bt is about as heavy as a big block chevy but could bigger springs in the front fix any sag and still perform?
Just figured I'd ask, cause i havent seen a thread on this and It just makes me wonder, CAN IT BE DONE?
