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!

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.

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?

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.

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.

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

Yeah, I should be passing through again this weekend, hopefully i can catch him!

Sure is, 1990, 276k miles on the clock, no issues other than needing O rings on the fuel injectors 

 

Get to it, that is not a tough job and far too many other trucks have burnt up on the side of the road because of it! 

 

:comanche:

Welcome! 

 

Clever solution.  How is the gas tank and filler neck set up?

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
