mpace6a Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 Saw this MJ on my way back home from camping. Got a couple pics of it as we passed by. Anyone know who it belongs to? The bed looks pretty well done! Thought it was a pretty cool sight! . :MJ 1: .
64 Cheyenne Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 Only thing that would have stopped me from stopping and banging on the guys door to talk to him would have been if I went by at about 90 mph with 5 or 6 police cars behind me in hot pursuit . :MJ 1: .
TheDirtyJeep401 Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 Thats when you go back and beat on the door till you find the owner. Lol Pretty cool though If I had an extra Mj, Id try to do that
mpace6a Posted June 30, 2013 Author Posted June 30, 2013 No...need to PM you for some cards...and I wasnt driving sadly. A friend was and he was on a tight schedule to get back. :fs1: But...I do know where it is...and am already planning a return trip :thumbsup:
Pete M Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 I'm heading out in the direction of the post office tomorrow. Will swing by with some cards if you can get me an address today. :thumbsup:
jimoshel Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 He needs to wrap those tail gate chains. Keep them from rattling and rubbing the paint. Other wise,,,good show. :thumbsup:
HKB3 Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 Looks like a stock bed with the sides removed and replaced with sheet metal. If you look close you can see that the liner is a factory "Comanche" bed liner.

If you look close you can see that the liner is a factory "Comanche" bed liner. Thats what I thought at first, too. But the size of his wheel wells looks wider than the thickness of the bed at its widest point. Plus If he had just removed the outside sheet metal couldn't he have kept the oe tailgate?
Automan2164 Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 That thing was for sale on eBay years ago... I thought it was from the midwest. I can't forget that paint job. I wanted to save the pics, but completely forgot. A few months later it hit me, but it was already archived out of eBay's history. Nicely done, but when it was on eBay it was MINT. Rob
GirsMJ86 Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 Can't stand flaresides but stepsides look awesome, especially on a Jeep truck. Always loved the stepside Gladiator and that MJ shows there should have been a factory one.
mpace6a Posted July 1, 2013 Author Posted July 1, 2013 well if my mj ever takes a bad hit to the bed ill be aiming to outdo this one! :mj1:
terrawombat Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 I applaud the fabricators effort as it looks like it was done cleanly, but the original design is wrong. It looks like it belongs on a J10, not an MJ. I'd never thought I'd say this about the MJ/XJ, but that bed is too boxy.
TheDirtyJeep401 Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 Youll have to go back and ask him if he knows how it was done.I'm curious well if my mj ever takes a bad hit to the bed ill be aiming to outdo this one! :mj1: Same, or if I get another Comanche maybe

GirsMJ86 Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 Stop and act like your interested in the bike, but only if it comes with the truck it's chained to. :thumbsup:

87Warrior Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 @ThatStepsideMJ Is it safe to assume this truck is yours?

Everything under the bed is stock, filler neck was lined up, hole cut in the bed and made a tube of metal around to fit, working on getting rust fixed on it so I don’t have to build a flatbed, there’s only one spot on the driver front step
