Got some updates, thing are moving alittle faster the interior is almost done, just have to get the seats mounted and mount an ammo can mounted for the center console. The front bumper is done just needs paint, heres some pics. originally i wanted to put a small stinger on the bumper but i dont have any DOM sitting around, so if any one has about an 4 ft piece of 1-5/8th .120 wall sitting around let me know if not ill porb. just add a stinger when i get some tubing for the exo cage.

That is some beautiful fab work Nate. Im gettin out of the way when that thing comes down the trail. Don't no if you already posted this but does that Comanche have the stock engine,trans,Tcase & whats the gearing in the axels? That is a bad ass trail rig Nate. Your going to have some fun with that thing!!!
WillC:
That looks great, nice work Nate but will the rig have the important stuff like heat, AC and a kickin stereo?

Ok so the drive train is a pretty big disappointment, Just the stock 4.0L, AX-15 and NP-231, the axles get alittle better but not much HP Dana 60 with a sterling 10.5 w/ the stock 4.10 gears so with running 37's 5th gear is going to be pretty un-usable. To lock everything together its just gonna be lincoln lockers front and rear. with the wheel base being so long im thinking this thing should be drivable on the street. maybe down the road when funds allow we might throw a decent gear ratio at these axles with a selectable locker in the rear, and then maybe a set of 40's. But as for know we are just trying to get this thing done so we can get it on the trail.

Heat yes, A/C ill have to look and see if this one came stock with a/c if so im sure i can make it work, kickin stereo? well there is currently no head unit installed but there is still speakers in the door so just have to try to find something cheap to play the tunes, however most of these things are falling pretty low on the priority list.
