89 MJ Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Comanches and an Eagle sported in David Freiburger’s new video. Around the 51-52 minute mark. Looks like the one that’s not in the picture has a factory Sportbar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montana Offroad Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 New to Comanche Club and just found this section. Better plug myself in here. My channel is called Montana Offroad. Previously I have done Jeep TJ videos but I acquired a ‘Manche (my dream rig) last year and will be restoring it. Should be interesting content for Comanche enthusiasts!

87MJTIM Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Looks great! The rear window is not original. Jeep used a 3 panel window. The door mirrors are after market. Try getting XJ mirrors to replace the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the aftermarket sliding rear windows are superior to the OEM ones. The opening is larger, so you can enter through it if needed and it moves so much more air when going down the road with it open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t have AC in mine so it see it’s fair share of use! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they are after market just the base model mirrors that are not very common.

Thank you. I may replace them for some higher trim level oem Comanche mirrors at some point (for better vision) but good to know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although you will need all of the window trim from the 97+ for them to seal properly against the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
