I'm jealous of those eliminator wheels for sure! I think there are some old posts about bulk buying new stickers. I'll be making some printed caps for my knockoff Elim. wheels that I got for $130. If that's your style, I could redesign them for other rims, but I don't have any Elim. wheels. One day! ha.

We've only got the new Einstar $1,000 scanner, but might get the Pro or HX in the future. Einscan does well with large things to scale down and print or to use as reference. I think it would get good use scanning the dash panel for fitment around the curves. If you're interested in some scan data, I can share it with you. It might work really well for recreating something like the mirrors or referencing the taillight housing. I think you've nailed it on the head, Its often easier to remodel small/simple parts from scratch and with a fillet gauge. That's what I've done to make this test-fit part so far... It fits very snugly. I'll publish the files on Thingiverse once they're ready

Maybe the DIY master list could do with a pintables link? Maybe this threat will be worthy enough to be it one day.

Funny enough, I just bought a 3 pane rear glass from a local junkyard. Once they have it pulled for me, If it has it, I'll see what it might take to recreate it. Hopefully I won't have to recreate one for myself without having a reference. lol

I hadn't though to even measure that yet. I actually had to google what WMS is. lol. Without taking the wheels off, it looks like 64.5.

I saw that posted in the DIY writeups master list. That's a great find. maybe there's some room for improvement/customization to the insert where you could keep the chrome or eliminate the need to trim the pillar at all.

My B-pillar lens is foggy and cracked. That would be a good idea! If you have a 95/96 Dash, could you measure this width? It looks a little bit wider to me on those

KK is the much later Liberty, Its factory setup has links/control arms instead of leafs. It was an absolute nightmare to even get mounted. I would highly suggest just doing an XJ 8.25 axle swap and then doing the KJ disc swap. If you're handy and could find a U-Pull with a XJ and KJ, I bet you could even do 95% of the swap there and save on buying parts. I grossly underestimated how long it would take to remove the unnecessary brackets on the axle, but maybe I'm not that good with a angle grinder. I wish I would have read more. lol. I cut off basically everything from the dust plate to the differential, painted it black, mounted the leaf plates, and hung it on my jeep to get it rolling. I still need to get brake hoses, plumb the brake lines, cut and fit the e-brake lines, adapt the axle U joints, and shorten my axle. Here are some older pictures I took before trimming and fitting it. If you want some pictures of how it is now or if you want to know more about how I did it, let me know.

That sounds pretty reasonable. I'll see what I can do! The small features of it are definitely beyond what the scanner can capture meaningfully. I'll change the title to 'Scan OR Print' Is this the difference on the dash bezel? 95/96 top and 84-94 Bottom?

If anyone wants to learn more about this stuff. SuperfastMatt has some awesome videos on the process with the exact scanner I'm using.

I've got access to a prosumer 3D scanner through work and I've taken it home a couple times to get more practice using it. 😉 Yesterday I spent an hour or so scanning around sunset and here's how it looks so far! I hope to get a whole model to print and post on Thangs/Thingiverse. I've also messed around with 3d prints for molding parts. What parts could we make new tooling for? Eventually this scan will be used to model fitment for a tube frame and Hemi 😎 Once I get a good scan of the whole truck, I'll start scanning my smaller parts like Taillights and Tow mirrors.

My Heap of a Jeep has had many updates! New Wheels for $130 Old axle out, refurbished the mounts, Chrysler 8.25 from a 2012 KK in. Now that the axles are all rolling, The Jeep was then moved from my Aunt's house to my house, So I'll have more time to look at it. All the lines to the rear were rusted off, so I pulled what was left of them and pinched them off. Once I get it to start, I'll repair the rear lines, I've already got all the tools and lines to do it. Is capping the load prop enough or do I need to swap to a XJ prop for safety purposes? I wired up a new inline fuel pump, though I'm not so sure its pumping enough, I also need to figure out what to use for a tank. I have an XJ plastic tank that I might just strap to the bed and run a line through the bed grommet for a while. I've thought about getting a stainless Keg as well. Finding a 14PSI pump has made me heavily consider an engine swap. The clutch had no pressure and I found that the clutch MC was seized. Funny enough, there was already a socket on the master cylinder bolt from the last owner. Free 18mil! A quick tap with a hammer freed it and then I gave it a good cleaning. There was a gasket between the MC and the firewall, it probably wasn't necessary, but I wanted an excuse to get the first print on the truck. With the new print and design technology, I was able to measure it, model it, print it, and install it faster than I could have even gone to the parts store and back. So far no leaks! Hoping that means the slave cylinder is still in decent shape. Next up I'll be getting a fresh battery and checking spark and fuel. The TB definitely smells like its getting fuel now with the new pump. Last owner put a new distributor and plugs on it. I'm about 60% sure it has spark. I'll be going over all the cruiser tips and watching a lot of videos. The grounding tip helped me get the pump started!

That's why I got the whole door! Funny enough, that's the only thing I intended to buy... a few hundred dollars later.... They were a bit tough on pricing. $100 each door, $100 for the tailgate and $125 for the back glass. It'll all go on my truck. I don't know too much about pricing these parts... Did I get gouged or a good deal? Ill be doing a 97+ retro fit of the grill/fenders on my Jeep, So I don't think I'll use those chrome bits you mentioned. Should I get those for someone?

1987 Comanche 4.0 / 5spd manual / LWB At A2 AUTO PARTS, LLC 2280 East Michigan Ave, Ypsilanti MI (They go by a few names) I bought the doors, back glass, tailgate. I wanted the fender flares with the mud flaps, but he wouldn't sell them separate from the Bed/fenders It has a moon roof too! I wonder what its originally from... I'll be back later in the week to pick up the parts.
