I am regrettably posting my Jeep Comanche for sale. This has been a project of mine starting in 2013, but with school, work, finances, I just have not gotten the chance to finish it. And with a little work left to go on it, I have really just run out of steam.
Jeep started as a 4.0 AW4 auto with an NP231 t-case with a D30/D35. Since then I have swapped it to an external slave AX-15 and a twin sticked Dana 300 transfer case utilizing a Novak adapter. The front axle is a HP Kingpin Ford Dana 60 and the rear is a 14B FF from a chevy.

I built this jeep to be a low center of gravity rock crawler. The suspension is set up very well nice and soft, the 3 link is done professionally, and frame stiffeners go from front to back. It runs, drives, and stops, all lights work, heat works, but need some work to make it a finished rig. I'm sure I am forgetting TONS of things, just ask me any questions you have.
What does it need?
It needs some simple things done like bleed the brakes more, bleed the clutch more, needs a pair of front shocks, a 2nd cooling fan wired in. What it really needs is the transfer case looked at. I modified the Dana 300 so you can engage the front axle independently. This is done by modifying the shift shaft. I may have done this incorrectly because when you engage the front axle, it seems to bind in the t-case. The jeep will come with an unmodified Dana 300 which you can install and still use the twin stick set up.
Title - PLEASE READ
I have the title for this Jeep from the previous owner. I signed it in 2013 when I bought it but have not put the title in my name. I went to get the title in my name about a week ago, but with sales tax based on a "Classic Car" value, and tax penalties from not registering immediately in 2013, the MASSDOT wants to rip off nearly $700 from me. I realize some people may not want to ever make this street legal, or are from RI or NH where a title is not required. IF YOU DO NOT need the title, I am asking $4000 FIRM. IF YOU DO WANT the title, I am asking $4500 FIRM and will get the title after a deposit is made to me. I have all the paperwork from the registry to prove all this to the prospective buyer. To prove the amount I would need to pay, and to prove that it is all that is needed to be done to get a new title. Once the fee is paid a title will be issued to me and I will sign and deliver directly to you.
$4000 FIRM without the title and $4500 FIRM with the title. Absolutely NO TRADES. Please call or text me at show contact info for more details or any questions.
