This project has slowed to a halt. Priorities have changed. I will probably be listing this for sale soon. I finished up the trim work inside and ther is little left to do. It has been sitting covered in my shop for over a year. Decision Decisions.

Thanks, Color is the Aqua Blue Metallic that is on the 2010 Chevy Camaro.

So here is the 90% complete version, recently added a slider rear window and new windshield, it is getting there.

What did you line the floors and the walls with? Have you noticed a significant reduction in noise?

I have been working on my 89 for about a year now. Conversion to 4x4, repaired floors, body work, new paint job. Still in the process of installing new bumpers and putting the interior back together. I will post more pictures of it as I get things done. For now here are some before and after pics of the new paint job.

Thanks for the ideas. I will go and take a look at the Patriot Blue. The truck is at the shop and I don't have access to the VIN but I believe it was the medium blue metallic. Still doing body work, have some time. Any thoughts on Fender Flares other than Bushwacker. I can't seem to find any others that are for the rear of a comanche and I don't think a Cherokee Flare is the same.

I stripped my light blue 89 Comanche down to bare metal and am in the process of getting the body work done and it repainted. Need help deciding on a paint color. Needs to be blue since the interior is all blue still. Jambs are getting painted. Bed is pulled. My current thought is Aqua blue marine that is used on the Chevy Camaro. Any other good choices? Bed Liner is Black, Bumpers are from JC Offroad front and Back and will be black. Currently have a set of new black Bushwhacker fender flares to install but am looking for other options there as well. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Spending a ton of money to get it painted right and body straight as possible want to have a color that will really show it off.

Do the Cherokee inner fender wells work? I have an 89 that could use the drivers side. B52nav

JpnJIM, where did you get the front bumper? I love it. Did you make it?

Hi, I have a bad fuel tank sending unit in a 89 commanche long bed and can not seem to find the part anywhere. Called Jeep and they said they stopped making it and have searched online junk yards to no avail. Does any one know if the Cherokee sending unit is the same and or another substitute? I need a fuel gauge. Any help would be appreciated.

Anybody have to replace their fuel sending unit yet and if so where is the best place to find one? I have had no luck at the parts strores and have been searching online for used parts and have had no luck yet.

Thanks for the welcome, I am from St Louis MO, Just a few spots of rust but very minor. A couple of dents that I need to take care of but nothing major. I plan on taking care of the body work next and then getting it painted. I just had a Linex bed liner sprayed in, the bed had no rust at all other than very minor surface. The lift is 4.5 inches. I believe it is a Rusty's lift. It has adjustable spring adjusters, track bar and links. The guy that owned it before me did the lift. It was a 2wd at the time. He had added 4:10s in the rear. I bought it and added a front axle and a new (used tranny and transfer case NP242) The Tires are 33's I love them so far, Mickey Thompson Baja ATZ's. I also will be fixing the minor rust under the carpet and replacing the carpet with a rubber floor.

So here are the Pics, What kind of SYE do I have? It is leaking at the moment so I am going to have to replace the seal soon. Any issues with keeping these sealed?

You know, I am not sure, I was talking to the guy at Tom Woods and he told me what to look for to determine whose converison it is. I need to crawl under it and take some pics and post em up. It looks almost original but I know it is not. It is leaking at the moment so I am going to have to replace the seal, so I am sure I am getting ready to be very familiar with it. Joe

I had a rear shaft out of an XJ that I brought with and was going to have it lengthened but the drive shaft guy said it was too small, he reccomend 3 inch diameter for that length. What diam tube do you guys reccomend?

Just got done converting my 2wd to 4wd and am looking for advice on the rear drive shaft. I picked up a NP242 transfer that had a Yoke on the rear already, so I am looking for a shaft 50 inches long, that has a slip joint. Took the original 2wd shaft to a drive shaft guy and he said he could not cut it down and add a slip joint because it is a 4 inch dia shaft. He reccomended a donor from a Chevy P/U or he would build me a new one for about $350. Cutting down the Chevy would be about 130 plus the junkyard shaft, probably 30 bucks or less. What do you reccomend? Any body have any experience with this? Just added the Mickey Thompsons Today and need to do some body work and a paint job. But so far so good.
