SquirtxJeep Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 i just bought a new comanche. it needs some work but what comanche in new england doesnt. don't worry that bra was the first thing i took off.
SquirtxJeep Posted April 15, 2010 Author Posted April 15, 2010 here are some pics of the work needed to be done to the body. hopefully this weekend ill get some body work done and get out the burgandy interior.
High2by Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 Holy Rustoleum Batman. I'm glad I live in the South. Although my MJ is missing a floor. :eek: I look forward to the progress pics. :thumbsup:

Although my MJ is missing a floor. :eek: I look forward to the progress pics. :thumbsup: the underneath of the bed is solid. the cab however is a different story. there are two big rot holes. and you are lucky nothing but salt up here to wreck your truck.
SquirtxJeep Posted April 15, 2010 Author Posted April 15, 2010 got bored and started on the truck. it took almost no time at all to take apart. a lot easier then my ol' cherokee. driver's side of the truck. interior is out of the truck. took no time at all. i was wondering why the driver's seat would tip when you leaned on it. not good... not good... cleaned up the passanger side a bit. I'm goin out to buy some paint on liner and rustoleum to keep this from rusting again.
-600JeepMJ Posted April 16, 2010 Posted April 16, 2010 Are you going to leave it black or paint it some other color?
SquirtxJeep Posted April 16, 2010 Author Posted April 16, 2010 Are you going to leave it black or paint it some other color? I'm thinking about leaving it black. but if i was gonna paint it another color it would be like a burnt orange.
High2by Posted April 16, 2010 Posted April 16, 2010 Are you gonna put carpet back in it? I have to fix my floor as well but I'm undecided on wether or not to put carpet back in.
Unglar Posted April 16, 2010 Posted April 16, 2010 Welcome to the club! Its nice to see another MJ being rescued.
SquirtxJeep Posted April 17, 2010 Author Posted April 17, 2010 its raining today so can't really do much to the truck. but i did make some use of my day. i went out and bought a moonroof for just 5$ at a local auction i also went down to Zeke's Custom Wheels and picked out two sets of rims and tires i want. now its just to pick which one to buy. Option 1 Option 2
SquirtxJeep Posted April 17, 2010 Author Posted April 17, 2010 option 2 if your asking. thanx i was asking. I'm in favor of option 2 also. i justed wanted someone elses opinion also.
Darren Posted April 18, 2010 Posted April 18, 2010 I'll vote option 2 also. However, you're not allowed to go with a rim over 17" in diameter.
SquirtxJeep Posted April 18, 2010 Author Posted April 18, 2010 well the smallest rim it comes in is 18"
Automan2164 Posted April 18, 2010 Posted April 18, 2010 Don't do it. I agree. Best looking wheels on an MJ are 15 or 16 inch black steelies. Rob L. :smart:
Dirteatr717 Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 Don't do it. I agree. Best looking wheels on an MJ are 15 or 16 inch black steelies. Rob L. :smart: AGREED and theyre cheap Theres plenty of other options that are probobly alot cheaper and look just as good :banana:
High2by Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 Don't do it. I agree. Plain black "D" window steelies look as good as anything.
SquirtxJeep Posted April 19, 2010 Author Posted April 19, 2010 well i got a 2.5" lift and am planning on goin to 35" tires and i was told id get a good deal on the rims that's why i wanted them. ill still see if i can get them in a smaller size because i like them. if not ill probably look at cragar for some rims.
Automan2164 Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 Good deal on rims? Unless you know someone at the place, it won't be cheaper than some rubber on steelies. Second thought, if you do know someone at the wheel/tire place, meats on black steel will be even cheaper. Rob L.
Squeegy410 Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 Yeah the black steelies look really slick, and the star in the middle of those rims makes it look like a hotwheels toy :dunno: the steelies look strictly business and just plain hard core. but in spite of myself, it is your jeep and your money :yes:
neohic Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 well i got a 2.5" lift and am planning on goin to 35" tires... Cutting fenders up to make them fit?
SquirtxJeep Posted April 20, 2010 Author Posted April 20, 2010 well i got a 2.5" lift and am planning on goin to 35" tires... Cutting fenders up to make them fit? yea a lil bit. i plan on a bigger lift tho also. speakin of that does anyone kno how much lift ill get by flipping the rear leaf spring on the axel? or were to get cheap 35" tires. if i can get 4 for less then $1999 then i need to go there.
