However, I remember someone saying they were sending a NOS one to Phoenix Graphics (???) for reproduction. I haven’t heard anything since I last spoke to the gentleman about getting them done. OP, you can call Phoenix graphics and see if they have them yet. Or I can tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jlindsey86 Posted September 29, 2023 Author Share Posted September 29, 2023 I spoke with Nathan at Phoenix Graphix this morning. He was not aware of any effort being made to bring the '91 and '92 "Pioneer" decals to production. I mentioned Comanche Club to him but he was unaware of any NOS decals being sent to Phoenix Graphixs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 Hmmm. I’ll see what I can do. I think I still have the emails from the guy who was gonna get it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another note, anyone see any reason why this hood wouldn't be a direct bolt on replacement for my 92 Comanche? Summit tells me it is incompatible.

Pete M Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 pretty sure all hoods are the same for XJ/MJ 87+ . based on the poor reviews of aftermarket fenders though, I'd probably try the junkyards first before buying an aftermarket hood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jlindsey86 Posted October 3, 2023 Author Share Posted October 3, 2023 Thanks Pete. A hood from any year model XJ should be a direct fit for any year model MJ right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’ll want 87-96. 84-86 are different in terms of how it latches closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ended up spraying my turbine wheels with Rust-Oleum 248929 High Performance clear Wheel Spray Paint. I think I'm going to regret that in a few weeks as I have a feeling the clear coat is not going to hold up to even road sand. 6 hours ago, eaglescout526 said: You’ll want 87-96. 84-86 are different in terms of how it latches closed.

My hood has so many dents in it from sitting under a pecan tree for years that I have consistently been quoted $1000 to have them removed via PDR. On top of that it has cracked and peeling paint. My thought is that it would make sense to purchase a different hood that needs far less work, swap it onto the truck and then have it painted and blended into the quarter panels.

I have the complete graphics on the truck but does that mean in front of them or like pictures with dimensions? I'm also wondering if they would make the proper 92 wave graphic. The one they make isn't quite original. I have that on a truck too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 In front of them works the best but I’m sure if you got them measurements they would be able to reproduce the graphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jlindsey86 Posted October 13, 2023 Author Share Posted October 13, 2023 Finally got around to having my control arms swapped out with some new ones. It's amazing just how much more feeling I have of the front end now. This was long overdue, they are called control arms for a good reason!
