Warren99 Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Can anybody explain or post a pic of where each of these go behind the seat? I’m not even sure if the tire irons have a dedicated location or not, this is just everything that came with the parts truck I gutted this interior from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 The cross iron is a spare someone had. The tire iron and the handle get strapped in the same spot and the handle portion of the handle gets clipped to a metal piece that sticks out. I found that metal clip in a spot y’all would never guess. Under the upper panel on the rear of the XJ holding the washer hose to the ceiling.

schardein Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Here's how mine looks. Second pic shows the clip on the metal bracket (on the back cab wall) that EagleScout mentioned. 3rd pic I "borrowed" off here, I think. I listed it as an 86, which has an extra part for lowering the spare tire. Jack instruction sticker. Jack parts from the parts manual. Close up of the clip.

Warren99 Posted May 11, 2023 Author Share Posted May 11, 2023 Ohhh ok that all makes more sense ty. I think instead of being a clip in the middle of the board, mine is a loop basically to slide the handle thru. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warren99 Posted May 11, 2023 Author Share Posted May 11, 2023 In that case I'm missing the clip then lol. Welp I'm never finding one ever again, guess I'll try to make one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welp I'm never finding one ever again, guess I'll try to make one There are various work arounds. One would be to just zip tie the handle to the bracket, knowing you would have to cut it if you ever used the jack handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 I did say those very clips can be found in XJs under the top panel by the hatch on the roof holding the washer hose. Course be my luck that’s an 84 only thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eaglescout526 Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Yeah, I thought I was clear. Maybe in my head I was, bad habit of that. Any who let me double check my idea, but I swear seeing them in my XJ, looked dead on the same as what holds the handle in the MJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Ok so developing, this clip can be found in SJ's as wiring body clips, YJ's as the same as SJ's, XJ's under the rear upper hatch panel on the headliner(not in catalog though) and the Eagle Premier/Dodge Monaco for the window regulators.

Great info, except I'm a little sick over how many XJs I've looked at in junkyards and never knew that clip was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have no idea how I felt when I saw the clip just clipped in place holding the washer hose knowing there’s like 2 or 3 under that panel. Granted this could be an 84 only thing but I’ve never looked at any others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ofcourse they might change for some reason in 91, but it's probably safe to say 84-90 has them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
