TheBandit Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Hello Everyone! First and foremost, I am thankful to be accepted into the club! Last week I accomplished a dream of buying a 1988 Comanche (for a whopping 600 bucks). Now behind the journey of getting it back on it's feet! I really only need to swap out a few parts: the bed, passenger fender and the bench seat! The only problem is that I cannot find them!! I was hoping you guys had some experience with this issue and would have some advice! Thanks a lot everyone! The Bandit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagle Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 The fender is the same as the Cherokee XJ, so any fender for a Cherokee from 1984 through 1996 will fit. Good luck trying to find a bed. That's going to be a hunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strokermjcomanche Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 You are only 50 minutes away from me , I actually used to live in Akron. I will probably be able to find you a bed , LWB or SWB ? What color bench do you need ? And what's wrong with your bench? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My biggest issue with the bench is that it is stained and has about a baseball glove size chunk missing from the driver side. I could probably get it reupholstered, but I really don't know the market for these parts- I didn't quite look into it prior- heart wants what the heart wants haha. The bed is probably my biggest issue, it's got rust coming up from the flares and probably out of reach to patch. Thanks a lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
