Goblin22 Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 2 door cherokee patch panels work for comanche, you might have to copy and paste this in your browser http://www.rustrepair.com/BODY_PANELS/o ... HEROKEE.84 will these work?
Goblin22 Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 i did not see any of them. so part # 50 will not work on the MJ?
Pete M Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 the MJ wheelwell opening is a bit wider than an XJ wheel well.
Goblin22 Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 ok thanks. where can i find the pannels or patch pannels that will work for my MJ?
AMC-MJ Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 If you have a short bed ya won't find any, Few places have long bed panels but not many. There is little after market support for the MJ-Comanche body repair wise, lots of support on the parts that interchange with the XJ-Cherokee ;-) Mike
Pete M Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 did I miss something? is the guy in the first link not selling them anymore?
AMC-MJ Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Nope your not missing anything, Unless you didn't notice the fact they are for long bed trucks ? ? ? Mike
Pete M Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 if you're just looking to fix the rusted out wheel well they would work. someone needs to bug him more for a smaller patch panel that covers just the typical wheel well rust. :fs2:
Goblin22 Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 i have a short bed MJ. and i don't know if thay guy is still selling them or not, i was not sure in the first place so i thought i would ask if anyone knew of any place that sold them.
AMC-MJ Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 :wrench: Then you must build a set like the rest of US :wrench: Mike
Pete M Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 been a while since this thread was updated so you might need to call him up and see what's going on.
Goblin22 Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 :wrench: Then you must build a set like the rest of US :wrench: Mike oh how i hate body work( i also suck at it).
AMC-MJ Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Yup me too, But until somebody makes a set of SWB bedsides I will have to purchase the LWB sides and cut them to fit :wrench: Gotta love limited production 20+yr old rigs. Mike
Blue XJ Posted April 28, 2011 Posted April 28, 2011 if you're just looking to fix the rusted out wheel well they would work. someone needs to bug him more for a smaller patch panel that covers just the typical wheel well rust. :fs2: I had my shop at work bend me the small patch panel needed to go above the wheel.well. cost me $10 in metal and I can fix both side now. If you measure out the angles, it a pretty easy patch to make
jeepcoma Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Has anyone gotten one of these lately? Comments on fitment and quality? I need to fix my bed and the body shop recommended a whole patch panel rather than just trying to fix the existing rust.
rick88 Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 I got a message yesterday (9/13/2011) from a company that claims they are going to start producing Comanche bedsides in the next few months. The company is called Classic 2 Current Fabrication and you can view their webiste at www.c2cfabrication.com My 1988 id badly in need of long bedsides so I am anxiouxly waiting. Unless someone out there has some now?????
sinkrun Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 I have a New Old Stock Mopar factory bedside for the drivers side $250.00. I do not have any interest in shipping its in central Pa.
East_Cdn_MJ Posted October 26, 2011 Posted October 26, 2011 anyone buy these recently, i have tried emailing and calling no answer from either
jeepcoma Posted October 26, 2011 Posted October 26, 2011 I've been talking to Zach from Z&M Jeeps and will be ordering a pair this week! (don't steal mine!) I also tried to contact C2C since I got my floor pans form them, but I never heard back from them either so maybe it's just a rumor.
jamonroe75 Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 How nuch do bed side panels cost from from Z&M Jeeps ???
jeepcoma Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 How nuch do bed side panels cost from from Z&M Jeeps ??? I paid $160 each.
GM-Comanche Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 On the patch panels noticed there are no fender flare holes
jeepcoma Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 Just got my jeep back from the body shop. Course it was dark when I went to pick it up and then snowing, and of course the roads are salted so from day 1 the rust attack begins. :fs1: Anyway, not a job for the faint of heart (or wallet). These are not plug-and-play replacements, they will require quite a bit of work. If your fenders are totally rusted out you should expect the wheel wells to be as well, which will need to be fabbed. Once I get out from under the snow and get it cleaned off I'll take some more pics. Between the floor pans, rocker panels (inner and outer), doors, and the bedside panels, it turns out to be a very expensive way to save an MJ from the junkyard. :cry:
my86mj Posted May 3, 2012 Posted May 3, 2012 this is great. i was about a minute away from buying rustys offroad fender bulges since my truck came to me with butt dimples.
