MJEspi

Thanks fellas. I’ve been addicted to Jeeps since 2000 when I started at the Jeep dealer. All the holes are there and threaded, from all the pics I can find it looks like I can leave em. With the drivers floor out it would be real easy to cut the left one out. I guess I’ll just have to by the long arm kit and start fettering.

All the holes are there and threaded, and seem to be in the right places compared to the XJ. from all the pics I can find it looks like I can leave em.

Hello all, I’m new to the Comanche cluband am building my first MJ. I have a 98 XJ that I wheeled and drove since 2003. I recently totaled it and picked up a 1986 MJ for $600. Replacing the floor pan now, I plan on doing a Rusty’s long arm as well as swap the 4.0 and AW4 from the XJ. The MJ had a 2.8 with a manual, not sure if I need to cut the cross member mounts off the unibody for clearance with the trans or fitment with the long arm crossmember. Has anybody ran into this before on one of these awesome Jeeps? I really have been getting a lot out of all the experience posted on this forum. Cheers!
