fiatslug87 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 (edited) I like them all (21 slot, 10 slot, 8 slot) Edited May 6, 2020 by fiatslug87 Can't count, in my defense the last one was obscured (dunce) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I like the 21 slot because it is different than what most others have and gives that more 80's look. But if I didn't have such I would do the 10 slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minuit Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 As a proud owner of two 7 8-slot equipped trucks, I will happily admit that I prefer the 10-slot. The 21 slot looks good on certain colors of truck too, but the 10 slot is the winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87MJTIM Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 10 slots for me. On another forum, someone wrote that "real Jeeps have 7 slots." Another person replied that the original WW2 MBs/GPWs had 10 slots. I don't remember if there was a reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i love them already '86-87 were 10 slot, '88 up were 8 slot according to the parts catalog, however, I've seen many '88s with the 10 slot but don't know if they were original.

Vineyard86manch Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 They’re all great but I’m partial to the 10 slot. If I see a 10 slot coming down the road I check it out because if it isn’t an MJ it’s a mid 80s xj which are fewer and far between up here in New England.

Jeep got away from the 7 slots, not only with the XJ and MJ but also with several other models over the years. Then Daimler-Chrysler bought AMC but did NOT buy AM General (the makers of the Humvee), and AM General started selling Hummers to the general public with 7 slot grilles. At that point, Daimler-Chrysler/Jeep decided that the 7-slot grille was a Jeep trademark, and they sued AM General. I don't recall the result of the case, but I think Daimler-Chrysler lost. After that, Jeep was suddenly more diligent in making certain that ALL Jeep models had 7-slot grilles -- including the 1997 Cherokee update. So, if you want a Comanche with a 7-slot grille, update to the new header and grille. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derf Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 The full size Wagoneer/Grand Wagoneer/Cherokee/J-Truck had lots of different grills to choose from. None of them had 7 slots. The M715 family had a grill that was the closest to the first generation military Jeep. It was literally just flat bars welded together in a grid, bolted up in front of the radiator.

thecodemonk Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 I definitely prefer the 8 and 10 slot. I have a 21 slot sitting in my garage and it just doesn't fit my current truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
