Car Forum / Jeep / September 20071988 Jeep Comanche Pioneer
Howdy all, Just a few questions about the 88 Jeep Comanche. 1) Overall, how would you rate it? 2) Parts, are they hard to find? 3)Maintenance, does it cost an arm and leg and is it easy to work on? Basically, if anything needs to be done, can you do it with the engine installed in the vehicle? I am sure I will have a few more as I think more about it. Thanks, Jim I had an 86, GREAT little truck, I'd probably still be driving it if it hadn't been totaled by an old man in a minivan. It's really an XJ (Cherokee) pickup, from about the back of the seat forward it's pretty much identical to a Cherokee, so mechanical parts aren't hard to find at all, and if it's got the 4.0 engine you've got a pretty much bulletproof engine. They are about as easy to work on as you could hope for a relatively modern vehicle... about the only think I know of that you have to pull the engine for is replacing the engine. The only thing your really going to have a tough time finding are parts that are unique to the truck, such as the rear bumper, tailgate, bed parts... but if I can find parts for my Studebaker pickup it should be relatively easy to find parts for your Comanche. Good luck, and have fun with it! Jeff DeWitt > Howdy all, > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > Jim Great thanks for the input!

Is there any website that you all have that specializes in Jeep Comanche parts? I have looked but really could not find one that was that specific. The part I am looking for is the interior courtesy lights. Thanks again! Jim |
