Wow, that is nice. Did you get the power windows/door locks to work on the newer doors? And how :brows: ? Great job :cheers:

How is the head room with that installed?

Hey Kid, Never realized that was your MJ. Can't believe I'd never seen your build thread before now. :agree: How did I miss it :nuts:.

:banana: :thumbsup:

I just used the SEM fabric paint to go from gray to blue. The upholstery shop wanted $260 a seat to recover them :no: .

Is it really :eek: ? I will go with one of your 3 jaekl ;)

But didnt you do a how-to on your build? Mine is an overview - your's are "How-To" :cheers: . Much Respect - Rich

Oooh nice and bright :cheers:

I hope your going to do another excellent DIY thread on this 88XJSport :brows:

I love that grille guard :oops:! No washers or anything like that, just a few extra holes and some hardware. It fits as snug as the old one. Thanks :D ! Yep, a few screws and it came off. You will see what needs to come off when you check the fit - it was not much. I think I ended up taking more than I needed on one side, but did not affect the mounting at all. There were two screw holes on the side light covers that have no place to screw into on our older headers, so I place a nut on the back of those two filler screws to keep them in place. I also (not sure if I put this in the write-up) had to drill two small holes into the metal face of the fenders, I believe on each side, to keep the side pieces snug up against the header. I hope I didn't scare anyone off with this lengthy and ill constructed response. Bottom lime, it is a piece o'cake and much easier than I made it out to be.

I used a grill from a 1993 XJ on my 89 MJ. Not hard at all and the write-up is in my Build-up thread here -> viewtopic.php?f=7&t=8051&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=90=. Take a look at that, if you like, and get back with me if you have any more questions. - Rich

I can't imagine that being a problem.

Ask and it will happen! Thanks :???: :cheers:

Wow, this is awesome. Never seen it before. Anyway we can get it moved to the DIY section :dunno:

I think painting it silver is a good idea. If you look on page 1 of BLHTAZ's build-up thread here-> viewtopic.php?f=7&t=9606&st=0&sk=t&sd=a, he did the same thing. It really looks good IMHO :cheers:

:rotfl2: "and i am not an indian" :huh???: :rotf:

I got it and it is awesome . Thanks BLHTAZ :thumbsup: It was packed well - Rich

For another time then :cheers:

I am very excited about the price too. They are in Dewey, Az.

Amazing :???: . Can you let us in on it Gob's, being like a father and all to him :brows:

Looks good! Do you ever get out to any of the local offroad clubs' meet and greets? I would love to see your MJ in person :cheers: - Rich

:waving: My idea is for your brother to start off with a 4.5'' lift, some 33'' tires, and at least one Aussie like I did :clapping: Then move up to 37'' tires and two Aussies - one for the front and one for the back seat -they jump around a lot :brows:

ProtoFab is going to make Rock Rails for the MJ! ProtoFab is having a pre-order special on all newly engineered MJ Rock Rails. It’s finally going to happen – for real this time. I just need to get a few commitments on rails and we are in. I think all the hounding has paid off because Mike agreed that if I could get a few more buyers lined up for a pre-order - they’re a done deal. I have been on his arse for a long time now and I think he is happy to do anything to get me from stalking him weekly by phone and email. The good news is I did a little negotiating for us too. If I can get a commitment for an order of 4 or more MJ Rock Rails, ProtoFab will give us a pre-order special of $270.00 a set! That pricing is for either the Long Wheel Base trucks, or the Short wheel base versions – we are all covered. I have posted this on a few other Forums that I belong to in order to guarantee that we can meet the minimum requirement. So who is in on this? I can attest to the quality of this company’s product, these are not going to be a piece of steel stock with legs for support. ProtoFab ROCK RAILS are made from CNC cut .140 formed cold rolled steel and 2''x .120 formed tube. These rock rails offer the same protection and modern design as his Cherokee Rock Rails, but re-engineered to work on the unique sub frame construction of the MJ. I have posted a few pictures of ProtoFab’s XJ Rock Rails, but more design and installation pictures can be found on his web site here -> http://www.protofab4x4.com/products.php?ID=00&ID2=9 The ProtoFab Rock Rails-> Rock Rails -> He is also supposed to update his website with the ProtoFab rear MJ bumper information. For those of you who have not seen his MJ Rear Bumper -> More pictures of the rear bumper can be seen on my build-up page on Comanche Club Forums here -> Drahcir495's Build-Up Please let me know if you interested in getting in on this deal – or contact Mike at ProtoFab directly @ Phone - 928-632-0216 Email - protofab1@yahoo.com Website - http://www.protofab4x4.com/products.php?ID=05

I enjoyed reading your progress :thumbsup: . "It turns out that a mixture of cow manure and dirt has properties similar to JB weld when applied to car parts." :rotf:

Front and rear winches - niiice :chillin: Much better with the bigger pictures :thumbsup:
