JeepcoMJ Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 so in jefferson WI there's a huge car show this weekend...we went today. ended up getting some 03 wrangler rims, brand new, and a different jeep spare (wrong bolt pattern...what are they? not 5 on 4.5 like we thought) for my brother's truck (gordy) xj skid for gordy 3 dated military jerry cans (for gordy) cherokee push bar which is modeled on my sport truck 78 chevy pushbar...looks small for a chevy, and is perfect for a jeep with slight mods (complete with fogs) wrangler (tj i think?) rear fender flares (they were 5 bucks, why not?) and a chevy yukon (or something) OHC which is perfect fit for my mj... and four oem xj switches...2 fog, 2 rear wiper/defroster (that's where they're going in my truck..i already have 4 fog switches in the dash...don't really need more but what the heck, they're cool... :P I spent 75 bucks, my brother spent 400, and his friend bought brand new aftermarket 17" rims/tires for his 05 jetta diesel for 950[/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rims should be a 5 on 4.5 bolt pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjbliley Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 That spare, the graphite 5 spoke, looks like it is from a WJ which would be 5 x 5. won't fit a TJ,YJ,ZJ,MJ,XJ, or a CJ. Just a WJ and some Chevy stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob S Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 The new Wrangler's now share the same bolt pattern as the WJ, it is 5x5. Looks like some good score on the parts though. Those TJ flares do bring some cash, the rear flares from a TJ can be trimmed nicely for the front of an XJ/MJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
