Hey everyone,

Does anyone have or know of a diagram for Comanche and Cherokee Frames?  I would appreciate any help. 

Thanks

Thanks for the links.  I saw this schematic online and was not sure if this applied since online I don't see it reference it specifically. Does this only apply to the Comanche or does this apply to the Cherokee as well?  I have owned my Comanche for 10 years now and never really appreciated it until recently. I guess that is what happens when you grow up.  I am looking to make this a major project.  I am looking for a Cherokee I can rip apart because I want to make this into a 4X4 extended cab.

It applies to the Cherokee from the front to approximately the front seat area. In the Comanche diagrams, you can see the area under the (front) seats where the rear frame rails splice into the front unibody rails. From there back, the Comanche is totally different.

I sent you a bunch of photos, to your email address, and a follow-up to see if you got them. In your spam folder maybe?

Cherokee frame to the middle of the rear doors, and comanche frame to middle of doors is the same. From those points rearward they are different greatly. The problem you will run into and should be ready for is the rockers will not line up and the curvature of the roof is different as well.

Glad to know that.  I have a ton of ideas but not sure what will work so I am gathering all the info I can.

I'm finally finishing mine up this year and I've been working on it for the last 2 years. Wouldn't have taken that long but kept getting sent out of town for business and then generally crappy weather putting a stop to the wrenching.
