88whitemanche Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I'm not sure how much access you have at a junkyard...but I've gotten about 95% Of my aftermarket add-ons or factory add-on from there... I've gotten factory engine skid, factory tow points, idk if it was factory or a rigged brush guard, rear hitch, turbine wheels Even a 1st model jcr offroad front bumper.. As far as lift I've gone from a rough country 3" lift with an add a leaf, Some guys guys here use rustys, TNT, iron rock, hell creek, and etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88whitemanche Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Well after having the add-a-leaf and pretty worn 20+ year leaf springs. I kind if wish I would've went full leaf packs for future investment sake...but I bought my add a leaf at a time where you could've bought a lift with no shocks...I literally paid $120 with shipping from jcwhitney... But if you plan to keep the truck and and use it full leaf packs are ideal to have...it'll cost a bit more but it'll be worth it at the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue88Comanche Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 a new front and rear bumper (with shackle mounts) a grille/brush gaurd Most aftermarket front bumpers can be had with grille/brush guards, winch mount, and shackles. Or where you meaning an aftermarket bumper and separate grille/brush guard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimoshel Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 JY. Junk yard. Pick and Pull. Pull and Pay. You wander freely through the yard and see something you want, pull it, take it up to the front counter and pay. For the larger stuff, you unbolt everthing and then call them. They have a hoist to lift it and drop it in your truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lift kit with no shocks...most lifts from 3" and up come with new shocks...when I bought mine at the time they sold this rough country kit with out shocks....

Blue88Comanche Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I bought my grille guard from 4wheelparts.com Edit: and here is a link to the grille guard and my review at the bottom http://www.4wheelparts.com/Bumpers-Tire-Carriers-Winch-Mounts/Grille-Guard.aspx?t_c=64&t_s=268&t_pt=3774&t_pn=WAR60766 Edit: if you go with the warn grille guard like mine search whatever site you choose for these part numbers. 1984-1996 WAGONEER, CHEROKEE, COMANCHE (DOWN SIZE) Trans4mer Grille Guard, Black 60766 Angled Light Bar, Black 73745 Brush Guards, Black (Non-Wrap Around) 39563 Receiver, Black only (use with Trans4mer only) 29397 Winch Carrier, 29394 (the winch carrier will mount any standard mounting winch) SST Stainless Steel Carrier Cover (for 29394 carrier) 63130 Edit: (note: I did not pay $675 for just the grille guard center it must have been on sale when i bought it.) And don't forget about 4wd.com if you join the club program (check the vendors section of classifieds) then you can get up to 10% and I think a portion of the purchase goes to the club.
