Pete M Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 someone on fb asked about the different grills over the years and that got me thinking that we should have something that at least tries to keep track of that sort of thing. which years had which trims, or interior colors, or whatever we want. the info is in our heads, but it'd be nice to have a digi copy. kinda like a wiki but more useful and more accurate. thoughts? or do we have something like this already and I'm forgetting about it. 'cause that happens a lot more than you might think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 The Street MJ was a custom thing though, not necessarily a trim offered by the factory. But we could put it down as a special 87 only trim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89 MJ Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Sportruck-a base with decals. SWB only. Ran 87-92 Renix: HO: (By the way, @Minuit, I’m borrowing this picture for this thread) Pioneer-more options than a base, but still pretty basic. Ran 87-92 Renix: ( @eaglescout526‘s truck) HO: ( @kryptronic‘s truck) Eliminator-top trim, SWB only, buckets, 2wd only in 88-89. Ran 88-92. Renix: ( @neohic‘s truck) HO: (borrowed from @Red Mistress) Chief-87/88 only, top trim, SWB only @87Chief's truck. Laredo-Top LWB trim. Maybe 87-89 (Correct me on this). LWB Only And then there was the funkiness in 86. In terms of grilles, there was the boring old 8 slot, the 10 slot, the 21 slot, the SC one, the Wagoneer grille, and the HO 8 slot. I think that covers all of them. I don’t know anything about the years other than the HOs were 91/92 only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted March 12, 2021 Author Share Posted March 12, 2021 what about interior colors and fabrics? that would be a little more challenging. might need to dig up all my dealership brochures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89 MJ Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Here is a list of colors and years available. If anyone has a book of color/fabric samples, that would be great to get a picture of. Black: 86/87 Medium Blue: 86/87 Cordovan: 86-92 Honey: 86 Tan: 86-88 Charcoal: 88-92 Navy: 88-89 Dark Sand: 91/92 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minuit Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Is it bad that I pretty much know the year/name breakdown of all of the years and fabrics off the top of my head? No time to make a real post of it right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minuit Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 As far as I know, all years had the featureless "celtic grain" vinyl and "premium vinyl" as the basic options for bench and basic bucket seats. They both suck and fall apart fast. Cloth fabrics: 1986: Mesa II (bench, basic bucket), Highland Check (high line bucket) 1987: Mesa II (bench, basic bucket), Hunter's Plaid (high line bucket, Laredo) 1988: Canyon (bench, basic bucket), Hunter's Plaid (high line bucket, Laredo), Luggage (high line bucket, Eliminator) 1989: Canyon (bench, basic bucket), Luggage (high line bucket, Eliminator) 1990: Canyon (bench, basic bucket), Luggage (high line bucket, Eliminator) 1991: Jamaica (bench, basic bucket), Luggage (high line bucket, Eliminator) 1992: Jamaica (bench, basic bucket), Luggage (high line bucket, Eliminator) Luggage - debuted on 1988 Eliminator, shared after 1988 with Laredo and XJ Country. Fairly durable but tends to tear where the cloth meets the vinyl. I've also seen this on a bench seat once, but that might have just been reupholstered. This fabric was also found on the base seats on the 1986 XJ Wagoneer. Canyon Jamaica - replacement of Canyon. Looks like a plain color from a distance but it actually has colored threads built in. Really durable, but if you're not careful cleaning the colored threads tear out of it. Mesa II on the left, Hunter's Plaid on the right. Mesa II is extremely durable and is like a burlap sack in texture. Hunter's Plaid is the opposite. Highland Check - '86 Comanche XLS, '86 Cherokee Laredo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kryptronic Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 @89 MJ: Here's a better shot of the High Output (91+) Pioneer Livery. My truck has Chief striping on the hood and header panel, so that 3/4 view isn't the best example. From the side it's all 91 Pioneer, though: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
