    Overland Comanche

    That is it for the winter, I'm gone for work now until the spring, seems the Jeep is parked more than it is driven. Guess that's how projects go, so the Jeep is tucked away for another winter. Leaving for work, about 3hours to the airport, this guy decided to escort me for 5kms ha

    sleeping in your JKU

    There are a lot of nice setups on this site for sleep platforms in a JKU. Here is a pretty simple one I made up a few years ago, slept in the jeep a lot with this setup. I had to push the front passenger seat forward to fully stretch out, I'm 5'10". Was ok for one person. I also had the rack to...

    Overland Comanche

    Thanks guys Jurfie, I'm still debating on what to do with the bed. Still working out bugs and other issues before I actually commit to anything. I do want to keep the tent low but Im thinking about rising it up some but keeping it so the top of the tent is still lower than the roof line or...

    Overland Comanche

    Since I swapped in the TJ Transmisison I haven't had back up lights. First thing I did was check the fuses, start small ha. Will it seems nothing is ever small, the fuses weren't the issue with the lights but there is another possible problem. This fuse pulled apart taking it out of the fuse...

    Overland Comanche

    Went for a couple nights about an hour from my house. Met up with Nolan in his Rubi JKU, he lives about 200kms from me, so we decided on a place in the middle. During this trip I could smell gas fumes, spent some time underneath, couldn't see any leaks. After I got it home and parked...

    Overland Comanche

    Went to the local "car dump" , kind of like a scrap yard but no one runs it, just an old pit where old cars are dumped/stored before they are shipped off to the crushers. You can go there and pick what you want , if there is anything there, usually not. I'm only in a town of 1200 people, next...

    Overland Comanche

    After the first trip, I painted the bottom of the Jeep to kind of hide the cut flares and front fender. I kinda like it too. Added a tool box in the bed. The box is rose up off the bed rail about 4" to clear the 15 gallon water tank that will sit underneath. Since the stock shifter knob would...

    Overland Comanche

    With the front lifted and the rear stock, it had a big rake and the rear tires rubbed just sitting on flat ground. A lift in the rear was needed and I was planning it anyway of course. I had the perches and U bolts ordered in anticipation. Rubicon Express ubolts and MORE spring perches from...

    Overland Comanche

    I have a "new" transmission that will need a new master and slave cylinder (external). It's a NV3550, transfer case and bellhoushing from an 04 TJ. The original transmission (Peugeot) mount is separated and will need to be replaced and I have a TJ mount on hand so I'm thinking I will go ahead or...
