DirtyComanche Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Hmm, got a part number on those breather/vents you used for the PCV system on the XJ? I need to eliminate mine. It won't work anyways... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeepcoMJ Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 that is single-handedly the cleanest, most awesome cheromanche conversion I have ever seen. welcome, and please, more info on BOTH of them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiCeMaN Posted July 22, 2007 Author Share Posted July 22, 2007 Thanks all As for the breather vent filters they were generic ones i got from NAPA's import performance section and clamped them to the plastic peice coming out of valve cover. i think i modified or cut that peice to fit but it took less then five minutes. will do on more info and pics soon. my daughter just picked out the paint. it a custom color from NAPA looks to be a Dark blue Metalic with metal flakes. well see.. i was thinking volvo yellow or Dark blue Metalic. if yellow then i could name my jeeps lemon and lime :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfpdm Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Aloha MJ is looking good and that XJ :drool: Very Sweet. Like the lemon and lime idea. :D I use to travel out there quite often but changed jobs so no more. Still have some friends out there. Took me forever to learn how to say the state fish name, Humuhumunukunukuapua'a. :D Anyway, Welcome to the club :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiCeMaN Posted July 22, 2007 Author Share Posted July 22, 2007 Took me forever to learn how to say the state fish name, Humuhumunukunukuapua'a I'm from hawaii and still can't say it right LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beaterjeep Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Wow, shows how much I paid attention. I didn't even notice the use of an MJ tailgate :fool: . That just makes it even better of a conversion, again, both trucks are nice, and nicely executed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeepthing07 Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 That looks like a CJ rollbar mounted backwards lol. It looks good with it removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't even notice the use of an MJ tailgate The last 1 1/2 feet is all comanche except for floor and frame its the only way i could blend and use the tail gate and have it look factory. again thanks all 88swampedmj said: i think blue would look good man.. I'm thinking blue myself only because i wouldnt have to paint the door jambs since thier already dark metal flake blue. won't be the same color but pretty close. Thinking about throwing a KJ light bar up top what do you guys think? i know it would look pretty clean and ive heard they are pretty bright.

rockhardzj Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Love the lemon and lime idea, but you can make it blueberry and lime lol. I saw the KJ bar on a white MJ with the MOAB rims a while back, and I thought it was one of the cleanest looking MJ's I have ever seen. Made it stand out from the crowd for sure. Since I saw it, I have been throwing the KJ bar around as well. I'll see if I can find the MJ I was talking about... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jared Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 that mj is sick. the light bar idea is awesome. i wish i would have known that it fits, i would have had one on my cherokee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockhardzj Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Yea, supposedly it's a perfect fit. I think theres another one on cardomain as well with one, but i can't remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiCeMaN Posted July 22, 2007 Author Share Posted July 22, 2007 Now that thing is clean. i like the euro light on the fender. i'm actually gonna use my MJ as triple duty tow rig / beach-runner /recovery truck. Once the rear coil overs are complete on the XJ it'll probably be a pain to drive down the freeway. I hope after my paint and everything is complete my MJ looks half as good as that thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beaterjeep Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Once the rear coil overs are complete on the XJ it'll probably be a pain to drive down the freeway. Wow, going coil over on the XJ, now that's a write up I'd like to see, and maybe possibly down the road take ideas from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I might do this to the MJ in a few months for a winter project... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
