garmj Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Does anyone have or have heard of chrome outside door handles for Comanche/Cherokee? I bought a pair on ebay and they are identical to the orignal black ones but I have never seen or heard of them before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boilermaker Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 I have a set...came off a junkyard XJ limited. They feel more solid and are heavier than the plastic door handles that most (if not all) of our MJs came with. I'm hoping that when I get my truck painted, they can media blast the chrome off and paint them black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOrnbrod Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Ah, yes. Some pre-90s XJ Laredos/Limiteds had them, as well as the XJ Waggys. They also had chrome mirrors, window trim, grille, and bumpers. http://gojeep.willyshotrod.com/HowtoDoorHandles.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyComanche Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 The chrome ones are actually robust enough that you can remove and install them a couple times without breaking them. I'd leave them chrome... It won't rust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
