dragordie Posted February 15, 2014 Author Share Posted February 15, 2014 I guess I might not belong on this site due to I have been building jeeps for hard core off roading and I have not but wanted to build a Comanche.So came across that picture which stricked my interest to do a bed build on my Grand Cherokee. A tree fell on it and its cut like a 2 door what I call Grand Camino. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue88Comanche Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 You are welcome here, the site is for those who ever wanted, has, or had a Comanche. If you are a Comanche fan then you are good to go! Your ZJ conversion looks great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragordie Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 Ok now can anyone give me some idea as how to cut from the front of the back doors to the tail lights off my grand so I can build a tube bed. I know i will need frame stiffners. from that point on is my question.I think the sub frame on the Comanche is boxed out and build stronger than my grand.

onlyinajeep726 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I think the sub frame on the Comanche is boxed out and build stronger than my grand. You'd be correct in the assumption since the bed portion of the Comanche is a true frame where as on the ZJ it's all unibody. Frame stiffners would be a must and some level of reinforcement in the back of the "cab" on your ZJ would be a good idea. As to how to do that... I don't know since I'm not a welder and don't really know how to go about something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incommando Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 The Chinese made an a total knock-off of a Jeep Liberty pick-up a few years back. Hey, it's not really a copy... they used an 8-slot grille not a 7.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathias Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Incommando, What company made that truck and what did they call it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a4xnut Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Beijing Auto Works (BAW - aka Beijing Jeep, the first joint venture between a western auto maker and China) made it... haven't found a name. Appears to be a concept build. http://www.autoblog.com/2009/02/12/beijing-auto-works-pondered-jeep-liberty-pickup/ Now if you could get a hold of a front clip from a late model Chinese XJ - like this 2004 BAW BJ2500, you could have a unique MJ update!

MJRemi Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 I think they call it a Riberty in Japan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
