Warren99 Posted August 1, 2022 Author Share Posted August 1, 2022 Sweet, guess I'll hang on to this one then. Also, is there a proper way to take off the rubber guide things that keep the tailgate from rattling? This one still has 2 straight ones which I could rly use since mine are all bent and warped.

eaglescout526 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 You should be able to drill the rivets out that hold them in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warren99 Posted August 1, 2022 Author Share Posted August 1, 2022 The rear window has no handle, just solid glass. But it is possible to open by just using the friction of your hand, its not the smoothest slide though. How would a proper one look? I'm thinkin about putting this into mine and obv would like a handle. Also here's a cover for a fog light, idk if it would have been on the bumper or sport bar or either but I only found 1.

eaglescout526 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 @jdogI swear found a ford one that fits perfectly for the sliders. That’s a rare piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 1, 2022 Author Share Posted August 1, 2022 Where would it fit to? Just glue it on or? I don't know what a factory set up even looks like, if anyone has one and doesn't mind going and taking a pic it would be much appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 1, 2022 Author Share Posted August 1, 2022 And which piece is rare, the latch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdog Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Yeah, I believe someone did, yeah it just glues to the window. The fog light cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 Ah ok, I might just use one from a ford or whatever like scout said. And I'll be sure to hold onto it then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 I'm assuming the gas tank would be worth holding onto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't hold on to one unless it was rust free inside and out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 Ok, from the looks of the rest of the truck I doubt this one will be rust free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warren99 Posted August 3, 2022 Author Share Posted August 3, 2022 Oh wow ok. Well now that I see that, how do I tell if some I see in a junkyard are factory fog lights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only three lights were used(without diving into the world of dealer approved accessories)Marchals, ROLs and Blazers. Marchals 84-87. ROL 87-90. Blazer 91-96. Those covers fit ROLs(and Sears ones to my excitement)only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 3, 2022 Author Share Posted August 3, 2022 Ok. And from looking at that post, I'm guessing the ROL were known to rust out or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 any old fog that is in good shape will be desirable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 3, 2022 Author Share Posted August 3, 2022 Gotcha, might have to run to the local junkyard soon. Also, the rubber trim going around the Chief, I have every piece but the front fender on the driver side, which luckily should be the same as an XJ. If I see a limited XJ I'll grab the piece to have a complete set for an MJ. I don't really see myself ever installing them to mine, but what would be an expected value of a complete set for an MJ?

eaglescout526 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Just depends on the shape of the lamps. Which brings me to this PSA: Check all big three cars of the same era for Marchals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
