Jeepinmanch Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 The recent post got me thinking about doing this to my 86'. Does anybody know how much electrical modification is needed to use the Wagoneer grill and headlights?
comancheman Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 I'm getting the feeling we are alone in this. il take a look at my bros when it stops snowing. if i had to guess, we'll just have to swap out the headlight harness and bolt up the rest. i wish i could start doing it now but hes gonna be driving it for a while
JeepcoMJ Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 The recent post got me thinking about doing this to my 86'. Does anybody know how much electrical modification is needed to use the Wagoneer grill and headlights? yes. you need the wagoneer headlamp connectors. other than that, you can do the mod with what you have there. I just cut out the connectors and fed them into the factory ones just in case i ever went back to stock. for the turn signals, grab a file and you can file out the wagoneer turn signals to fit your factory ones.

I think those grille's look great but I guess we are a minority here. Just add the Hella lights from here and you would have a really nice upgrade. http://www.rallylights.com/hella/165mm_lo.asp
MJ'87 Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 i thought i was the only one who wanted to do that conversion until now
JeepcoMJ Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 anyone who wants that conversion, I know where 4 of these complete front ends are. I can't get the connectors for all of them though, but bumper to bumper and napa stock them, or can get them.
CWLONGSHOT Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 I also like this look... Mostly because its different than everyone elses. That just the way I think, I want something different than what everyone else has... If I run across one for a good price, I'll likely do it, unless I get a 97-02 first... :brows: CW

I can't get the connectors for all of them though, but bumper to bumper and napa stock them, or can get them.i would be interested in all the parts needed to do the swap.can you put together a price for a "package deal" shipped to 37659?pm me with the info,thanks.
troy6187 Posted March 29, 2008 Posted March 29, 2008 i think the look of the waggy frontend on the manche is great! my 88 looks good like that... one of my favorite mods.
watchamakalit Posted March 29, 2008 Posted March 29, 2008 I think I prefer the 97+ mod over the waggy one. But the waggy one is definatley a close second.
surfer1316 Posted March 29, 2008 Posted March 29, 2008 I had this Idea a logn time ago, pulled it off an old cherokee. Problem being between moves I lost the turn signals and they'e not regular turn signals. But I am pretty sure I still have the front light harness someplace. Let me know if somebody's interested in either
