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 .

Will do , it'll probably be several weeks as I'm getting my truck ready for Toledo in a couple weeks .

They said they'd help out if they can , I'm guessing all they need is some old covers to use as templates .

Not only Jeeps but many other makes , I'm getting the seat portion for my 99 limited interior.. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1999-2000-2001-Jeep-Cherokee-Limited-Driver-Side-Bottom-Leather-Seat-Cover-Agate/223303036311?fits=Model%3ACherokee&hash=item33fde5ed97:g:9agAAOSw9g1cJ3t7

The plates(at least the 90 and older ones ) have different dimensions 80mm (d35) and 85mm (d44 ) , on the old two part plates I was able to slot the holes the 5mm no problem when I did my swap . The newer plates are much more stout and appear to be slotted for the d44 I never had had to shorten my driveshaft.

Looks like a nice project , I'm sure it'll look great when it's done

I had NOTHING to do with someone putting the S/C in the junkyard in California where I got the parts from . I can put these parts on whatever truck I want , I spent MY money on them . I offered my rear bumper up if I choose not to use it , but I guess that isn't good enough for you .

There is no duplicating any of these body pieces . I may possibly sell the rear bumper portion in the future and the rest will be installed on one of my trucks .

Just picked a mopar 53005421 for $37 shipped, it does fit the Comanche.

Got them a week ago

Heat soak

A donor vehicle or make them , unless you stumble across some NOS ones

You will in a few days lol

Instead of starting a new thread .... I need two side pieces and I have a complete package Thanks to the gentleman in California for removing and shipping the items to me in ohio !!

They are , 90xj limited

That's nice that it ended up being Metal , I'm sure there aren't many of those out there .

I'm sure it would help , just doing everything I can to make the right choices so I don't get screwed .
