I have also learned thoughout the years the jurrasic park jeep guys offer a wealth of knowledge on the winch used (ramsey rep6000) as this is the same model used in the movie.

You are right eagle. What i meant was the tow hooks with the two sets of holes ar more commonplace than the winch cradle itself. When i had it on m 2000 i did not have a he filler pieces for the gap so i made my own out of abs plastic strips. Looked close to factory.

Sure ill grab some this week. I had it mounted on my 2000 xj for a few year and removed it when i got into an accident. The winch setup didnt get damaged but i decided to put it in storage for safe keeping.

I recently finished building my garage and i have my comanche torn down for a proper complete resto. Ive been going down in the crawl space under my house where i have been hoarding all my "some day" parts. Well i was down there today looking at my factory hidden winch setup and i remember there were people on here that showed intrest in possibly reproducing this item. I would like to offer it up to be copied and or reproduced by anyone under the condition that i receive it back. I can remove the winch itself and ship the brackets. Just just let me know. Would be very east to reproduce all angle iron aside from the factory tow hook brackets which are easy to find on their own. Obviously this is an heirloom item and i will only send it to reputable who can be vouched for.

I bought one of those 20000 lb recovery straps at harbor freight about 10 years ago. Its gotten my built xj and others (even some full size vehicles) unstuck at least 50 times over the years and it still holding up fine its lasted through 3 jeeps.

So I'm tearing the truck down in my newly built garage to do a more "thorough" restoration now that i have the space. I started tearing into the rockers and inner rockers today. Current plans are to redo body work correctly and 4wd swap and have the truck ready to paint in the spring. I want to paint it white again but correctly with real automotive paint

Yea hes a nice guy. I was supposed to send him a renix coolant bottle (his is/was cracked) but he never called me. Hope he got it fixed.

I must admit tha wheel and tire combo looks great. I love factory wheels with big tires.

I met another old guy on the vinyard that has a nice blue mj have you seen it. He takes the ferry to where i live in new bedford.

What type of paint did you use on the interior pieces?

Are you swapping in a new carpet?...if so is thay vinyl flooring for sale

Wow been off the forum for a bit..so sad to see this.

Yea bob is still fixin up old xjs and selling then on the side as a hobby/extra income. He comes by our shop now and again for parts.

Bob salemi from ri runs a tf904 in his drag commanche with the stroker.

i ended up just making some gap filler out of little pieces of sheet metal i took this setup off when i got my logans bumper but the winch and everything is sitting in my basement for safe keeping.

ok mine looks different than that... I'm missing the pieces that fill the gaps around the bumper

what parts do you need for the hidden winch. i have one and could ship ypu the brackets if you wanted to use them for a template.

lol that lady saying the "body and chassis were isolated" hahaha

thats a webber carb. thats the one you want the factory carter carbs suck. what did u buy for the mj???!!

i really like mustie1 lots of cool projects oh and sixtyfiveford shows alot of cool mechanic tyoe tips and tricks as well

man that poor rusted diesel has been around forever. i wish someone would just do that truck some justice.

i used s10 lowering shackles from pepboys they gave about 1 inch lift.

My Boss is selling this 1988 comanche long bed. straight 6 4.0 with BA-10 Transmission Transmission shift great and is tight Jeep runs and drives but needs work.
