offroading-net Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I have found a few places that supply body panels on the web but would rather have a recommendation as it ain't easy for me to send crap stuff back! I need a roof panel & I suppose floor repair panels (could patch but I want it done correctly) Who does the best quality panels? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btm24 Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 What do you mean by roof panels? Brandon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offroading-net Posted February 18, 2012 Author Share Posted February 18, 2012 The gutters are bubbling & starting to get holes in mine. Would like to replace the whole roof panel if possible, if I am going to spend money on spraying it up I don't want rust creaping back in a couple of years.

Automan2164 Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Except for stuff that has been sitting on a shelf for 10+ years that is old dealer stock you are on your own for anything that doesn't cross with a 4 door Cherokee. With roughly 100K MJ's made and not a whole lot of them left, there isn't much demand for an aftermarket. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyleag89 Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 What about going to a salvage yard and cutting a roof off a MJ there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offroading-net Posted February 18, 2012 Author Share Posted February 18, 2012 they don't exist in the UK. I am getting a donor XJ, will see what my welder guy can do with the roof out of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Automan2164 Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Another thing to be aware of is that the roof line of the MJ/XJ are different. The MJ roof has a large dome/crown to it. XJ's are flat as a pancake. Might be simpler/easier to start with some sheet steel and see where that leads ya. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offroading-net Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 :doh: best laid plans etc. There is a car restoratration shop up the road from me, think I will just drop the shell off there for all the repairs to be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
