I need a new set of stock rear fender flares for my MJ. Where can I buy them?

Ok so this is my 88 MJ. We just completed the lift this past weekend. I haven't wheeled it yet, but wil be at rausch creek with in about 2 weeks.

I've got 35 x 12.50 with a 4.75 backspacing. They rub the LCA's a little at full lock, but I am able to run stock flares. Also my rims are 15 X 8's.

I am going with the stock shifter for now. I also salvaged the buckets and console from my XJ, I'm going to see how they fit up. The BA10/5 will be available soon, I want nothing more to do with it once its out.

Thanks for the info. I salvaged everything I thought I would need off the XJ including the throttle body, trans crossmember and flexplate.

I am in the process of converting my 88 MJ from a manual (BA10/5) to an automatic trans (AW4). I removed all the parts from a donor 89 XJ that I owned. My questions are the following: 1. I am replacing the wiring harness to accommodate the TCM. Do I have to install the ECM from the donor or can I use the one currently in my MJ? 2. If I have to replace the ECM, the donor vehicle had ABS, will that affect my swap at all? Any help is certainly appreciated.

Thanks for the link, it helped make the decision.

I was thinking of converting my 88 MJ from the pos BA10/5( 2nd one) to an AW4, I have an 89 xj with all the parts. How much work am I looking at.

Thanks to all for the information. The 8.8 does look like the much better option. Probably for both of my jeeps.

Are there any particular year/s explorer I should look for?

I've been looking for a d44 for my XJ. I'm lifting mj MJ in the next few weeks and had a set of axles from a former xj I was hoping to use.

Is there any potential problems I should be aware of in swapping a rear d35 from an xj onto my MJ. Please advise

Sorry I didn't join this forum earlier. I went to paragon as part of a joint pa-wheeling.com and 4wd.com groups on 10/6-8. I'm in Phila. Pm me with your info. We are hoping to go again in december and are always looking for others in the area who want to go.
