JMO413 Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 I'm not sure what that number is but it's not the VIN. Where did you get that number from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 were VINs different in other countries back then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMO413 Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 It would have to start with a 1 or 2 they were only made in the US and Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rear one y a very rare one because it was fitted only in the short bed metric tons and it was made just for this Mj series that was produce here just for the 91, 92 years. In the front, all jeep xj, zj, and yj manufactured here were fitted with danas 44 front and rear, wich is very cool. I did a lot of research before buying the MJ and realized that the 92 short bed metrict ton was the one to have, looked around 4 other manches but all were long bed/Renix or converted to carb. Before buying this one y almost bougth a one owner 1990 long bed/renix with just ower a 100k km but it didnt convince me, next day when y call the owner to come down and see it again he had it sold that morning, tourns out that the new owner lives around my area and I was able to see it driving down the road and pull next to him in a stop light and asked him if he will sale it to me but didnt want to hahaha but I have his phone contact and keep track on that very low milage MJ Have some pictures of anothers MJ that I look before buying mine if you guys want to take a look.

Comanches were manufactured in the Jeep plant of valencia, Venezuela for local sales (thats why the VIN starts whit 8Y wich is the code for venezuela manufacturers) here even a extended cab varsion was created from log bed models and sold in dealers as extra cab version.

Pete M Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 need more pics of everything! I have an original Comanche dealership brochure from Venezuela but don't read the language so it's more of less a lot of pretty pictures (non of which include an extended cab) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 I thought there was that weird extended cab proto that existed! I would get in touch with a Jeep dealer there and see if they will give you a build sheet and date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People here rip the hell out off the pickups soo its hard to survive. I will love to take a look at that brochure and maybe give it a shot translating some of it!!!

boxyjeep Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Take a look at the other spots that typically have the VIN. There should be a tag under the hood, as well as the last 6 digits on the front of the front crossmember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It dosent come with the tag under the hood, it have the last 4 digits I think stamped in the rail frame just behind the battery mount. It also have a tag behind the windshield up in the dashboard but sadly only the las digits remain and another tag inside cab near the gas pedal but again only shows the last digits of the vin.
