dancome433 Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 looking around on CL i found this one, thought about it for a while, then boilermaker pmed me sayin it could possibly be an eliminator, so went checked it out, and turned out to be an eliminator, so i picked it up for under $500, its an 88 2wd auto short bed d35 rear and rust free!, it threw a rod thats why the kid sold it so cheap, as of right now its a redneck truck, 32" muds in the rear stock tires in the front, cut exhaust, etc. my idea i think so far is to do the 97+ swap on this one, convert it to 4x4 and do a 6 inch lift on 33's with black steelies, and leave my 89 with only a 3 inch lift and orginal, here's some pics of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigalpha Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Did the Eliminator package have that middle console on the floor stock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigalpha Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Did the Eliminator package have that middle console on the floor stock? yelp. Did they come in other trim levels too, or just the E? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasbulliwagen Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I have an 86 Comanche X and it has the same setup, buckets and full console. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancome433 Posted May 13, 2009 Author Share Posted May 13, 2009 Did they come in other trim levels too, or just the E? i found a long bed pioneer in a junkyard that had the center console and buckets, which i took to put in my 89, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shelbyluvv Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Nice truck. I remember when mine looked just like that. But it still had the factory hole wheels on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfpdm Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 I might be wrong, but it looks like that console and seats may have been put in and not what came with it. Why I say that is usually, the door panels would have the same material (twead) on them as the seats and the console looks like it has the slot for the e-brake which the MJ consoles did not have. Either way, it was a great find. :thumbsup: :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbyluvv Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Same seats and door panels that mine had. She was 100% bone stock with these. Mine had the mini console though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfpdm Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 See I told you I might be wrong. From the pic it was hard to see if it had an actual slot. No slot = MJ original. :thumbsup: Far as the seats, I guess the matching door panel thing is just with XJ's :dunno: :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Automan2164 Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Yeah. When I had my '91 Eliminator, the doors didn't have the fabric in the door panel either. I think it was all in the trim package. Might have not came standard on the MJ... Option maybe? Rob L. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancome433 Posted May 15, 2009 Author Share Posted May 15, 2009 shelbyluvv, i jus looked through you build thread and all i have to say is :thumbsup: :cheers: , thats pretty much what my whole idea is with this new one, I'm going to use my buddies donor rolled 99 xj, and do the swap with it, idea so far is going to be black body, black rims, black interior, pretty much blacked out, with some red accents(valve cover(comes with the donor) seat covers) can't wait till I'm done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
