cjvaughn Posted November 1, 2014 Author Share Posted November 1, 2014 I can try to take some this afternoon. I used the brackets from the xj and drilled holes in the comanche to fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motorcharge Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Looks amazing. I love the near stock look. One thing that would probably make a huge difference is some better OEM Jeep wheels. XJ icons or JK Moabs come to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuddFoot Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 truck looks great. what kind of paint did you use? single stage, base coat clear coat, rustolium? i think the wheels look great as they are stock 97 cherokee wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
collkid Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Dang. Thing looks like it would take years to put together. How long did it take? What now? DD it? Go to Jeep and tell them to make it!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjvaughn Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 It took exactly a year started sep2013 finished sep2014. I'm driving as a daily and if only we could talk jeep into bringing back the comanche, as long as it doesn't look like the new cherokee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it shows the fit and finish is beautiful. That is creative way to fix the rusty floor pans, do the 97+ dash swap, and swap the 97+ front clip swap all in one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
