I might borrow this bench seat idea!! It would be perfect for drive in movies!!

I am looking at trimming slightly maybe an inch to an inch and half. I'm planning on doing tubular fender flares in the front and an integrated bed protection panel that will go into the tail light and replace it, with a tubular fender flare as well. I'm missing my rear factory fender flares and the bed is starting to get rusty. If all goes well, I will be planning on making and selling them as I had read on here before that there were people interested in those items a few years ago and the company that talked about making them didn't. I own a small off road shop/auto repair shop and I am planning on starting to make things for these trucks to sell. Only time will tell.

Thank you all, I was really just looking for a quick answer based off everyone's experience on a tire size. I know with a 6.5" kit on factory axles you're looking at 33's. I wasn't sure having the extra width from full size axles if that would permit 35's. I appreciate everyone's input, I know what I want to do, my capabilities, my budget, my timeline etc. When I get to the point I will post my build for others to follow along if they want and will probably refrain from asking anymore questions seeing as they won't be answered anyway. Not looking to start anything, or "throw a temper tantrum and leave" kind of thing. Have a great day. Also please all stay safe and wash your hands through this pandemic.

This is going to be a multi stage build, hopefully. So let me give you some answers. I got a Dana 60, with a locker, 4.88:1 with billet hubs and upgraded axles for cheap I have a spare 14 bolt on my axle rack taking up space. I'm swapping in an auto trans and transfer case from a cherokee to replace the 2WD stick shift What I'm looking to do for now is get 35's under it and drive and enjoy this for a little while. I'm not looking for extreme flex at this time. I just don't want to rip the fenders off doing mild off roading. Once I have it up and running and enjoyable, I will take it to another level at a later date I'm in absolute love with this little truck, so i want to get it running and driving and then focus on fixing up all the other stuff and restoring it. Hope that helps

Alright everybody, firstly I hope everyone is doing well with such uncertain times. I'm going to purchase a Dana 60 tonight that I am going to swap into my comanche. My question is what is the biggest tire I can get under a 6.5" lift with full width axles that I can still wheel with?? At this point my plan is to install a rough country 6.5" lift (I'm a dealer, get a good price, and this will see more on road then off road, for now) and an Artec Industries truss kit. No crazy long arm or coil overs yet!!?!! Thanks in advance for your help

Thank you!! I had been looking and searching on my phone. I kept see guys say check out the link in my signatures but on my phone it wouldnt show any of them. Checked the forum with my laptop this morning at work and there they are. Link was a great help! Looks like since I have a complete running XJ that it will be a pretty straight forward swap!!! Thanks for the help and I'm planning on posting as much as I can during the swap process

Recently bought an 89 MJ with a 4.0 and standard trans 2wd. The other night I bought a 1992 XJ 4.0 auto trans 4wd. So now I’m doing more reading on here and now I think I may have been a bit premature. Will the 92 trans work in the 89 MJ??
