Yea, that ones' got me beat. I guess mine will be runner up. ;)

There is an 89 Manche Pioneer at my local junkyard. It has a tilt steering column with shifter and cruise control. I need to replace my non tilt w/ shifter, no cruise. Mine is also an 89 Pioneer. Does anyone know if this steering will work??? Possible to add the cruise to mine? If so, what does it look like and where is it?

Starts with a screwdriver..... Thx, but when I tried that....it didn't show nothin but a little box with an 'X' in it..... thx for posting it Thunderbear

I specifically need the complete ignition with the column cover ( The whole piece under the steering wheel that goes completely around the column), as well as the metal piece the column shifter is attached to. (Which also goes all the way around the column). But I will settle for purchasing the whole column with shifter and keys..... not sure how hard it is to get the pieces only. Geez....I tried to link a photo, no go. Tried to bring in the code...no go. How the heck do you post pics here???

Mine's an MJ Pioneer..... Someone told me police XJs had column shifts for shotgun placement. I bought the truck with the column jacked already... I was hoping to replace the broken column.. I really don't want to convert it to floor shifter. Some of the experts here told me that column shift MJs are NOT that rare in another post.

I have an 89 Pioneer with column shift. The gear indicator is located in the dash gauge. Can anyone tell me what year they moved the gear indicator from the column to in the dash gauge? I saw a pic of an 86 comanche with it on the column itself. Also, does anyone know what other vehicles may be equipped with said shift column? I am having a hell of a time trying to find one. Mine is all broken due to theft.

Find your can or purchase another of PB.....and maybe bang it with a hammer as you try to loosen it.......after you heat it (the nut, not the shaft) really good.

How did all of you on the East Coast fair?? I assume you are all out of power and can't reply......

Wow, kinda cool. Kinda scary. I hate those ads that target you because someone is tracking your evey internet move.....

Link please!!

Thank you! Neato!

For the life of me, I can't get the damn door open. I got the panel off, where I found my factory buildsheet btw, and have access to both rods. It WILL NOT release. What to do?????

WooHoo! I must be one of the lucky few that got the "highly decorated veteran" 89 Pioneer with one of those optional packages he talks about at 8:40! I have the 4.0L and the one ton package! I love my "full, dressed out soldier'!! LOL Seriously, this totally made my day. I can't wait to show it to the spouse, who practically rolled her eyes at my MJ when she 1st saw it.....this'll show her.....LOL.

great build! I'm really liking the water tank with pump. super cool.

Wow. Detailed well beyond most. Hats off to GJeep.

Doh!

Anyone save a pic? I missed it. :???:

TOTAL MJ noob here, All the google searches had similar decoders. I could not understand my vin # according to this decoder (In Example) http://www.comanchemj.1hwy.com/custom3.html I have my actual build sheet. It was under the passenger door panel .Pretty cool, but I'd never seen one before, and I really can't decifer it either. It was much easier to ask the pros here anyways. Thank you ALL! I have a pioneer! Woo Hoo!

What the heck kind of MJ do I have?? And why doesn't my vin conform to ID specs?? VIN: 1J7FJ36L5KL478035 It's a longbed, with overload leafs, 4.0, column shift, 4x4

Hi folks, Ever encounter this one? Starting to go through my recent purchase, an 89 MJ, still not sure exactly what it is, because the vin # doesn't make any sense...I'll ask that question on another related thread. Anyways, all the lights work except the tail lights. I replaced the bulbs, then checked the fuse....it was gone....hmmmm...... took the 10amp clock fuse and replaced it. YAY! they worked! THEN, I tried to start it.......nothing.....again, nothing. Took out the fuse I just put in, and it's blown, and now the truck starts fine....crap. I hate electrical issues. Anyone help?

Sounds like a conversion is the best thing to do. Were there any XJs made with the column shift?

It is totally jacked. The key tumbler area has been reamed to about twice the size, and the housing has a big rip in it to accomadate the screwdriver to start it with. I'm glad to hear it's not too rare. I have a 99' XJ, and just assumed they were all floor shift because of that I guess. The blinker housing doesn't work either. I will post a pic of the jacked column later....if I can figure how to. Thanks for the reply.

Hi guys, I'm looking for a donor truck with a column shift steering column. The one I just bought was stolen at one point and the steering column is F'd up. 1st, how rare is this model with the column shift and can anyone help me find a replacement?????
