Help My Find Out Year Of Mj

[Tylerzap]

Theres a MJ sitting down the road and it looks to be in excellent condition. It was sitting under a tree for months and right before i got the money, it disappeared. I later found out from my neighbor that a man down the street bought it for $500 and has been sitting since he bought it. My neighbor told me that the man said the engine was messed up. So i am considering going by and offering him $500 for it.

 

Now ive been searching but i cannot dertermine what year it is.

Its blue, has 4x4 badges, SWB, and SporTruck on side with big squiggle line. I know it is 87-92 from being a SWB. Any help appriciated.

Get the vin and some pics.

[mvusse]

What is the 10th digit of the vin? That will tell you the year.

[Tylerzap]

I can't. Its sitting behind a mans house.

[Tylerzap]

I'm just trying to find out if its Renix or HO.

[mvusse]

Knock on his door, ask if it's for sale and ask if you can look at it.

Sportruck in the squiggles instead of hockey stick style means '91-'92.

 

'87-'90

 

 

'91-'92

Thanks!! Exacly what i was looking for.

 

What all did the SporTruck pack include? Could it be 2.5 or 4.0 or either??

[Automan2164]

Base model. Could be anything. Just a trim package really.

Ahh i see. So would it be worth it to try an buy this? It seems to be in very good condition and i can replace a motor. I REALLY want another MJ.

A good Comanche is worth getting shot at. Go get the VIN.

[relyt120]

Give $5 to a neighborhood kid if you don't want to do it yourself... worst that will happen to them is a and a "get outta my lawn"

[mnkyboy]

I don't see how the VIN really matters,if its in decent shape its worth $500 reguardless what year it is or which engine is in it.

you make an excellent point :yes:

[mvusse]

The VIN will tell what year Comanche it is, which is what the OP is asking for in the thread title.

[Tylerzap]

I agree. :)

I was more wanting to know it it was a Renix or HO. The year specifically doesnt matter to much to me.

 

Is there any difference between 91 and 92??

Nope, just the rairity factor of a true 1992 model truck,

 

 

btw, this truck is Stunning!

:drool:

[Tylerzap]

Ahh ok. Thanks. Now i just need some $$$ :D

So with a HO model, would any OBD1 engine work in it???

[ComancheKid45]

Any OBD1 4.0L should be a near direct swap, yes.

[Tylerzap]

So pretty much that would mean my drivetrain would be:

 

HO 4.0

AX-15/AW4

23 Spline NP231

Non vaccume HPD30

D35???

 

Or the 2.5 of course.

Just FYI. I found this site to be helpful in ID'ing a Jeep.
