Yea I know, same as how 21 slot grilles aren't worth $500. I was just surprised to see so many of them all listed around 60-80 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 I paid 750 for my 21 slot grille... but it came with a truck for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 3, 2022 Author Share Posted August 3, 2022 Haha nice, I wish I would have known about their rarity more, because I swear I've seen some in junkyards before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 I feel like I need to make a “rare” parts list for those who frequent the yards. Damn near anything 84-86 is an oddity if it’s own as AMC was not standard with the XJ in its infant years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 I think the list would be shorter if we gather a parts list of MJ or Renix items that aren't rare enough to grab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 4, 2022 Author Share Posted August 4, 2022 Regardless, I would use the list a lot, theres a lot of junkyards in the Atlanta area or around it. I only know of a few like smaller private owned yards that have lots of olds, I know one in Griffin that has 3 j10s, one with a basically complete interior. But the ones I go to the most are the bigger names like pull a part, gray n white, and lkq. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 So can anyone else find previous sales of the little rubber trim pieces that go on the bottom of some of the Comanche Chiefs? They also are on XJ limited trims(assuming the trim is identical), maybe more I'm not sure. But I couldn't find any on ebay, I can't even find any pics on google images of another Comanche Chief with this trim, all I see is the black decal version.

Pete M Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 do you mean the belt rubber? I don't know if the chief ever got that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 No its slightly different than that, I just found a pic of an 86 XLS that has what looks identical to it, but obv that would only be for a long bed and mine is a short bed 87 Chief trim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 Well it might be the same belt rubber you showed on that pioneer, but this one has chrome in the middle like the XLS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 chiefs got the sticker package. the rubber belt trim is from a Laredo or XLS or is aftermarket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 Hm, I wonder if the previous owner took the stickers off and added the belts. Also are you saying the belts specifically with chrome are from a Laredo or XLS? Because I swear I've seen pics of pioneers with the chrome ones.

Pete M Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I mean, anything can be added by the owner, but official photos show Chiefs with stickers, Laredo/XLS getting the chrome (sometimes), and pioneers getting the black rubber (sometimes).

Warren99 Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 Oh ok, I mean there is considerable bondo work on the lower portions where the rubber is, well at least where there is still metal left. I wonder if the rubber was his way of taking attention away from it, obviously if he did that much effort it would have been long before the amount of rust it has now. Well either way, a full set of Laredo/XLS chrome belts is still nice to have, I'm gonna take a wild guess and say its from a Laredo since the XLS was only on a long bed haha.

Warren99 Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 While you are here, what can you tell me about the other bigger style of trim, I think I've only seen them on Laredos. https://www.streetsideclassics.com/vehicles/0809-nsh/1988-jeep-comanche-laredo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Laredo was also only longbed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 that rubber trim is from later year Laredos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 Ok cool, and I didn't know laredo was only long beds. I wonder if the trim on mine is from a Pioneer, and has been painted chrome in the middle, it did almost seem like the chrome was bubbling in some places Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 ooo!! thumbing through the brochures I see that the chrome rubber trim was also available on eliminators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 Well either way, if someone is reading this a few years from now, I have no plans of using the trim but will definitely hold onto it, so message me if your interested in buying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
