KC0GFG Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Good day to all my fellow Jeepers out there!!! Whilst perusing the craigs list I came across the a guy selling just the back fiberglass shell for an old (78) toyota chinook camper. And I thought to my self, that would be awesom on my 90 MJ. I'm still researching specks and all to figure out if it will work on a shorty bed MJ I don't think it's been done before. I did catch a blurb about the original campers havering a 110" wheel base and the tape measure tells me the MJ is right at about 112". Here's what I'm thinking only more MJ in the front http://toyotachinook.wordpress.com/2013/02/04/the-perfect-chinook-4x4-diesel/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KC0GFG Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 Yes but the chinook camper is smaller. Al though if one of those poped up for sale I'd be tempted to buy it. How many comanche campers were made any way. I want to say that there are 5 that are owned buy members of this forum but I haven't seen any other mention other than here. I think I'll research that one one a bit further Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny quest Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 i believe there are 3 in existence. one of which has been passed around CC. there are no known Chinook style M campers, but smaller slide-in style campers work well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny quest Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 looks like that grill guard is just an ARB unit, but it does compliment the truck well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
