CrankShaftKid Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 1988 MJ Sport 2wd D44 Rear 4.0 5 speed With the new shoes 245/75 MT/r's on rubicons. Other plans are 4wd. 99+ Front end conversion and new Paint. Thanks so far to Boilermaker with major help on parts.
brigarpeon Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 Nice truck. Tell us a little more about it, equipment, plans etc... I was going to do a search for white commanches w/ a chrome grille so I could see if I liked it. Just didn't have the time, the only difference from what I plan is Canyon wheels. What color is your interior? In the Backround is that a 68-70 Roadrunner, Satellite or Coronet? You don't like Smurf Blue? I'm thinking to change mine from Maroon TO Smurf Blue. White paint and green tinted windows. Ahhh it's a Coronet.

That car in the background is my previous project, 69 Coronet Super Bee.
Boilermaker Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 Looks great (i'm partial to white MJ's with Moabs). The interior conversion came out real well too. btw, time to update your avatar.
james750 Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 are you going with the 99+ front clip to get a color matched grill? or is there some other reason for not going with the 97+ front clip.
CrankShaftKid Posted May 16, 2008 Author Posted May 16, 2008 I meant 97+. But I havent decided if I wanted the grill matched yet.
JeepcoMJ Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 that is just sexy. all of it. garage, cars, and of course the jeep.
CrankShaftKid Posted August 12, 2008 Author Posted August 12, 2008 Paint shop. About a week away from getting squirted GM Pewter Metallic.
500 MJ Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 Yep, its coming along. A few more days and its done. ;) You and "Wanderin" are getting them :cheers: I can't wait to see your truck after paint. I think its gonna look killer! - Brent
WahooSteeler Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 love the moabs. funny, i have a wheel thread right now about canyons and ravines, but i left out moabs because they still cost a good bit more than what you can get the others for. otherwise, i'd probably go for moabs or MT Classics w/beadlock. Truck will look awesome in that GM color.
JohnQ Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 Who is doing your paint job? I'm in the market to get mine done. My buddy never seams to have the time to work on mine. What are your plans for your factory bumper?
CrankShaftKid Posted August 13, 2008 Author Posted August 13, 2008 Getting it done at Rancourt Paint and Body on 290 in cypress. Used to work there. Not using either bumper, so both are forsale and I'm also losing the hitch setup.

WahooSteeler Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 i'm also interested in the rear bumper and hitch if johnQ doesn't take it.
CrankShaftKid Posted September 2, 2008 Author Posted September 2, 2008 Not yet. But I'm at school so itll be a couple weeks before I can go pick it up. Getting close.
WahooSteeler Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 JohnQ, did you snag that bumper/hitch?
JohnQ Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 JohnQ, did you snag that bumper/hitch? Not yet, waiting for crankshaftkid to get a break from school.
500 MJ Posted September 11, 2008 Posted September 11, 2008 Are you swapping out the front header panel? I noticed that it looks like you have the 97+ fenders on there now... Wanna sell all of the chrome parts off of your old style header? Also, if you can, that rear bumper will be EXTREMELY easy to mount with the box off of the truck.
JohnQ Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 Did you upgrade your doors to 97+ or are those the orignal?
