eaglescout526 Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 I remember this one. SoCal wanted the rollbar for it. Honestly it looks like a good candidate for restoration. Plus its got black interior and a full early style cluster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 a factory black bench will not have headrests. BUT you can get a late model bench and have it recovered in black. chances are any bench you find will need recovering anyways. I recommend cloth.

jdog Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 minus 500 because the grill is upside down, necessary to flip entire truck to correct issue Looks like a well optioned truck tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87MJTIM Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Is that the original BA10 in the bed? If it is, that's a plus that it is already removed. If the seller insists you take it with the sale, ask for $500 off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvertwinkiehobo Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Regardless of interior color, it has buckets and the center console. According to Maveric, those seat tracks are MJ-specific, so a resto is definitely in order. Or I know Maveric will buy them and the console, if it gets parted out. And if SoCal decides he doesn't want the rollbar, Maveric has second right of refusal after SoCal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 XJs and MJs have different floor brackets but share sliders if they are the straight variety in the XJ (also came in curved and power). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Not particularly, the distance for the wheel well legs is shorter than the LWB sport bar. So you could alter it to fit a LWB by extending the legs to the wheel well.

SoCalManche Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Watching you guys talk about altering the SWB roll bar to fit a long bed makes me want to just take up this other guy on his $650-$700 LWB roll bar. (Not really though.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muncher Posted July 12, 2020 Author Share Posted July 12, 2020 Checked this out today. Didnt take it home because he didnt have a title. So he said hed hold it for me till he gets a title so we will see how that goes. Also i didnt even notice it was a swb at first because the listing said lwb. Kinda disappointed about that but i guess i couod deal with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
