Warren99 Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 Just now, Pete M said: ooo!! thumbing through the brochures I see that the chrome rubber trim was also available on eliminators. Ah then mine could be authentic chrome, also "through the brochures" I wish I had a collection of those. I do have a 1989 mopar accessories booklet that came with the owners manual. Unless your pretty much positive it's somewhere on the forum already I can post pics for anyone interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warren99 Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 Yea I was just skimming through it, gonna post it if I don't see one already up there. But what is the Genuine Jeep Comanche Outfitters stuff! Reminds me of the ford freewheeling program thing. I never even heard of it til I saw those posted by @fiatslug87 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Genuine Jeep outfitters would be what is in the back of that outfitters brochure. It’s possible someone at one point repainted that truck and put on those moldings over the decals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 Yea I may eventually look harder to find evidence of decals, but the hood is rust free and straight as can be, the paint is a little dull tho, although its uniformly dull...

Warren99 Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 Question about wiring harnesses: I'm gonna swap the whole dash and everything from this 87 Chief into my 89 Base. I believe the 89 computer is a little better than the 87 computer, but could I just take 100% of the wiring from the 87, put it into mine, but keep my computer?

eaglescout526 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Yup! Wiring interchanges just fine. One thing you might want to be cautious about is the connectors. Depending on how late or early the 87 is, it could have pack con connectors or it could have metri pack connectors for stuff. Like the radio connector will most likely be different.

Warren99 Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 I'm gonna have to rewire the radio anyways, but I'll check what month it was made. Where is that build date located? Its not on the inside of the driver side door for some reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Pete put the VIN in the registry and I ran it the other night. Another possible location is on the rubber mat of the passenger floor beneath the air box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 Oh ok so it was built in January of 87, so would that mean it has pack con or metri pack connectors, and which does my 89 have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 It should have metri’s like yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
