Well I stumbled across a Comanche chief today and dude wants $1200 for it .. It's got about $150k miles runs fine and has a 44 rear... I think I want to get it.. I've wanted one so bad since I've owned a cherokee and id love to clean it up and make it a dd

Do it guy, then do a 97+ front clip swap, replace door, fix cab damage, lift, live life complete.

And the Napier flares for my 2door fit the mj but i may leave it super clean and not even trim it.. Maybe use my stock 98 flares from my 2 door to match new front end!!

That's a good deal and a very rare truck I would just clean it up and not do any nose swap that will ruin what it truly is... A chief mj is a rare bird and to do it justice you should try and restore it close to org and make it a nice dd but that's just me
