8.25 Chrysler XJ axle is a good option in my opinion, especially if you have the means to weld new perches on . You can add disc brakes too if that's your liking . The axles are plentiful and come in 3:55 ratio.

What are you using the truck for ? What size tire are you running /will be running? What gear ratio do you have /want ?

How about a cover plate for the fairlead so someone can't grab the cable ?

I know it's gonna be pricey, but A-1 Cardone will rebuild your's if you currently have one.

I've only sold one , the other 10 rusted away and I scavenged the parts from them .

I see tail lights for sale all the time between $100-$150 ( yes people ask and get more ) . Ive had 15 MJs over 23 years and currently have 4 , besides having been rear ended twice when the truck was parked I've never broken a tail light . I know now there are several types of MJ owners , the crawlers / off roaders , the purists / daily drivers , the hotrodders etc . If you're going to be in scenarios where you will be beating the truck against trees /rocks / whatever slam some cheap Dakota lights it with a little work . If you don't like the looks of those then spend good money on something you can potentially ruin the next time on the trail . If you're a purist take extra care when you load the truck / back up etc and you shouldn't have to buy another pair of stock lights or rusty stuff in the future. Its obviously you're truck to do what you want and I don't have an issue with whatever you do , it's just my two cents .

I'm guessing you are looking for an XJ floor ? I only ask because I didn't see the model posted , I'm going junkyard hunting tomorrow and can look for you .

This one will work https://www.ebay.com/itm/Dorman-76937-Auto-Trans-Shifter-Lever-Knob/223626288285?epid=140352757&hash=item34112a5c9d:g:87AAAOSwJ6xdV6MM

Yes

It was a brand new console in a parts collection, I didn't see any knee board when I was there . I wouldn't be back there for several months until I build up some more cash flow to purchase more parts

Yep same for both , I just came across one when I was in Toledo but never grabbed it because didn't have a use for it then .

Put the ramps in the bed of the truck(s) ?

I get that , the photos can be moved from Facebook to here though

I seen people opening doors on other concept vehicles, and when they got to the TC the doors were locked . I wasn't going to try to open it anyhow as there are way more pictures on Facebook including the interior .

I'll be going to the sea gate center in a little, want any pics ?

Take a wide putty knife and insert it between the door and fender in the gap . As you try to open the door ,pry the fender forward until the door gets behind the fender . Then insert the putty knife behind the fender and infront of the door and start to shut the door and the putty knife will pus the fender out far enough so the door and fender won't touch again. You'll probably have to work up and down the gap to get good results.

I was hit exactly like that , except it was the drivers side and a bit worse . Tail light , bumper and bed were ruined . The kid that hit me I went to school with ,he was drunk behind the wheel and lived 5 houses down from me . His father sold insurance 30+ years and fought tooth and nail with his company to get me the money I needed to fix my truck , went to my insurance company after they wanted to total my truck and they wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole and I had full coverage. Unfortunately the insurance company doesn't pay for sentimental value or value of other Comanches out there , only the price book they go off of . My my brother in Colorado and his roommate were hit by in milk truck at 2am (while asleep) in a cultisac . My brother had a 2014 Jetta with 40k he just paid 10k for 5 months before , and his roommate had a 2018 escape with 9k miles . The milk company was very apologetic, but in the end they totaled out both vehicles with very minimal/fixable damage . Here is the damage

I've been through the whole totaling scenario , normally when damage exceeds 80% of the vehicles value they total it out . Your insurance treats it the same way unless you have it insured for a higher amount . Every state is different, but if you want to keep a clean title find out the dollar amount that won't total the truck out and consider taking that amount . If you don't care about a clean title get whatever money you can from the insurance company, buy your truck back and fix it . This varies on state to state , but that's how it is in Ohio . Average price of the tail light $50 Bumper $150-$200 and that bed section should be easy to harvest off of a rusty bed that is going to be scrapped anyhow . Any idea what they're dollar amount is ?

The guy that pulled the parts for me lives only 15 minutes away , maybe send him a pm or I can text him to see if he wants to pull them for you . Very nice guy guy and packaged everything very well .
