XJs4Ever Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Hi fellers Got the MJ painted this month, and can only find one of the 'Comanche' emblems that go on the front fenders. Got tons of the '4x4' ones but have decided NOT to put them on. The trucks lifted like crazy with 35" tires so if anyone can't tell its a 4x4 they need therapy. I may put them on where they go near the tail lights just to be MJ correct later but not yet. I quit calling dealers for MJ parts cuz they never have anything. I recall someone could make and send the 'Jeep' decals that go on the raised letters on the tailgate, and I think at the time they were $16 a set [course that was back in the old Yahoo! Comanche group days]. I am still trying to fab up a rear bumper out of 2" pipe, and some rock sliders but can't seem to drill thru the angle iron. Its just an old bed frame and maybe 1/16" thick but its dulled 7 bits and broken one!!? :fs1: I will try to post a pic or two on a sunny day. Its gloss black now like Scotty's '91 :banana: latr doods Rick in CO
BlackBeast Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Hmmmm I am curious also but I imagine the answer is stickers! Vinyl places will make to spec if you ask them.
Pete M Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 just put an ad in the classifieds, Rick. there's always a couple people parting out an MJ that should have an emblem or 2 for ya. :thumbsup:
shelbyluvv Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 Rick get ahold of Spencer at Jeepsticker.com for the tailgate stickers.

I've had them for 2 years and no issues at all.
XJs4Ever Posted April 16, 2015 Author Posted April 16, 2015 Right on guys I will order a set today. The trucks looking graet and I can't wait to post of some before-during-after shots but not til its done. Still need front flares and a rear bumper of some kind, and window tinting
XJs4Ever Posted April 16, 2015 Author Posted April 16, 2015 can't seem to get to the jeepstickers.com site. says it may be for sale. that throws up a HUGE red flag for me DAMMIT!!!!
HOrnbrod Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 Try again. Works fine. :hmm: http://jeepsticker.com/
jimoshel Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 Those old bed rails look like they would be great for making stuff bur they're just not worth the trouble. Too much carbon. They're a b*@$£ to weld and a pain to cut with anything but a torch or a chop saw.
neohic Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 ... Still need front flares and a rear bumper of some kind... Should've said so! I would've used a bigger envelope! :D
XJs4Ever Posted April 16, 2015 Author Posted April 16, 2015 Try again. Works fine. :hmm: http://jeepsticker.com/ I dunno Don. This is what I get when I go there
XJs4Ever Posted April 16, 2015 Author Posted April 16, 2015 Its probably just internet BS so I transferred $30 into my paypal account so in a couple days by the time it posts and I find the actual site I will be able to order a set and risk losing $17 or getting the decals. I'm wary cuz when I tried to e-file my tax returns - guess what? In typical RICK fashion - I find I am a victim of identity theft. SOMEONE has already filed returns under my social security number. Story of my life. :fs2: I used to laugh about it. Like 'hey, anyone wants MY life well $#!t they are WELCOME to it!' well jokes on me - someone DID take it. I also [we] did a chapter 7 bankruptcy to dismiss $84,000 of my wifes medical dept. Well none of them filed a claim so I was to get all my stuff back [money, motorcycle, guns] but my student loan - which is exempt from chapter seven - IS entitled to any monies I have. They took $30,000 from me. That was my inheritance from my moms death a few months ago. POOF! it goes to the goddam gov't. Oh did I mention I have been unemployed since last year? Nobody will hire a man close to 60 these days regardless of what he can do. When my garage burned down a few Halloweens ago, after my wife almost died from a fall, someone here said 'dang Rick & his wife can't get a break' well no $#!t here's more proof. Having a bad day?? Walk a mile in MY shoes.
XJs4Ever Posted April 16, 2015 Author Posted April 16, 2015 JeepstickER.com - no s at the end. figures. a typo throws me under the STEAM ROLLER
Nobles41 Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 You can also find the stickers on Ebay by searching Jeep Comanche in all catergories.
XJs4Ever Posted April 28, 2015 Author Posted April 28, 2015 Got em. That Spencer seems like a decent sort. Even included a bonus one that looks like the old school Rover or Scout. I will see if I'm right.
XJs4Ever Posted April 28, 2015 Author Posted April 28, 2015 Hey you're in parker?! Me too! I got my "JEEP" stickers from Spencer at jeepsticker.com. Cheap and awesome. I've had them for 2 years and no issues at all. Yea? Was that yours I saw at O'Reilly's around 14:30 today? All chopped up, no doors? I was going to stop[ in on my way back but it was gone by then. rj
Incommando Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 I am dealing with jeepsticker.com on some custom color emblems. He is vey obliging and willing to help.
XJs4Ever Posted May 1, 2015 Author Posted May 1, 2015 ok got the decals on, but I f'd up the "ee"'s a little but will just live with it I guess. even found a 4.0 litre badge and a command trac one too. I assume that I have that and not select trac. I don't want to post pics yet as I am still fabricating a rear bumper but when its done I will start a new thread in a different list
gogmorgo Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 Command-trac is the standard 4x4 with only part-time 4HI. Select-trac has a full-time (i.e. AWD) 4HI option as well as the part-time 4HI. I understand select-trac was pretty rare in the MJ, but much more common in the XJ.
