What to get at Junk Yards?

[MJCARENA]

I am planning on hitting some local junk yards, What are some items that should be salvaged off a Comanche? Like for example, taillights and tailgates. Just would like to save some Comanche only parts from the crushers and maybe help out a fellow Comanche owner that needs parts. Thanks

Cargo light and switch-I want

Fender badges

Rear bumpers, stock or otherwise

Trailer hitch-I want, will pay to ship

B-pillar plastics

headliner

 

I could go on, but I'm tired of typing :rotf:

 

Somebody else want to help out.....

[kro10000]

Roll bars, slider rear window, D44, just adding to the list

[Burls]

grab taillights for sure

[dasbulliwagen]

Rear fender flares, outside B-pillar vent covers ( The black plastic outside trims), Interior dome lights, Metric tonne springs-ala dana 44, or the super elusive 1986 only M20 rear axle, any black interior peices especially black bucket seats.... bucket seat frames.... stuff like that.

 

Desireable XJ parts... 2 door bucket seats, late model outside mirrors, 97 up front ends and doors, dana 44 rear ends, late 8 1/4" rear ends.

 

Good luck.

Thanks for the shopping lists. I'll post up if I find anything. I been to the junk yards looking for XJ parts before, but do not remember ever seeing any MJ's

[MJCARENA]

Well I went to 4 different junk yards so far this week after work and only found one 1987 MJ but it was already stripped out. :( Listed it in the registry for 1987. Still have alot more yards to go.

don't forget the T-bolts from a 1978 Ford 9". apparently these are pretty rare. :rant:

 

 

but seriously, I try to snag any TPS or IAC (or other sensors) for my era/engine Jeep that looks clean (meaning it might be newer).

[MJCARENA]

Funny you should mention the IAC. Found a nice looking IAC on an XJ. Was so clean that it stood out. So I snagged that up. Was only like $8. Got home and tried it on my XJ and works great. So now I have a spare that will work on my XJ and MJ. :D
