Here is the current price list for the Jeep 2500 parts as of 9/19/08. These are the parts that they sell for it..... so lets stick to the stuff on the list. Lets figure on keeping the order open until the end of October so everyone can get some funds in order. I will not know "how much shipping" will be until we get our order in. But we can figure that out the closer we get to the deadline. Please, only order if you are serious about getting the stuff. Its really confusing going back and forth with changing order quantities. So sleep on it before you send your order over...... you got some time! :)

For those of you that are planning on doing a front end conversion using the 2500 fenders, surround, grill, and headlights, what are you going to do for paint? That's assuming you're not gunna leave it primer :greensmok
 
I was worried about when the cut-off date would be, but it looks like it'll be no problem. I'll definitely have funds in order by then.

I'm a bit confused about the center console stuff I see on the list. What model years does that stuff fit onto? And what's up with the glove box? If you replace the glove box with one that has a different shape, don't you need to then replace the whole dashboard?
 
I didn't see anything about the "grill moulding" on the price sheet this time. Also I don't know if the console or glovebox stuff fits US spec XJ's. I figured a month would be enough time to get all the funds in order.

I'll email them..... I was just going off of the list they sent me this weekend.

Purple I will be spraying mine with the rattle can duplicolor automotive stuff they sell at the parts stores. It should match up well enough till I drop the truck and spray the whole thing gloss black
 
Excellent Chris I am in!

While I do not think I am interested in fenders, I bet there will be people that are this time. Any word on if they need a minimum order number for the fender this time?

I am wondering this as well, in addition do we have any word about JP02MR01/02 (right and left mirror? I know these were items that they had previously indicated were not available, I'm just wondering if they are now.

You should read the other threads where people are mounting up their parts.
 
Mirrors and fenders look to be good in stock, but i'll check with 'em.

Quite a few people have put the 2500 tail lights on their XJs without modifying anything else. They're plug and play on the 84-96 XJ, though they are slightly shorter because the 2500 bumper goes up higher, so there's a 1/4" to 1/2" gap between the top of the stock US bumper and the bottom of the 2500 tail lights. There are various ways you could fill that gap if you don't get the rear bumper. Some people don't even worry about it.
 
I'm gonna be in for the front end, but I was wondering if some of you might be able to answer a question. I want to paint it all to match, but don't have a good idea of how much paint i'll need and how much it'll cost. Let's say it I did the bare min, just the fenders, grille, and not worry about blending the hood, about how much paint would that need? what about the whole 9, fenders, grille, bumpers, flares, waterproof? How much $$ would i be looking at spending?

I can get the labor part done for free, as I have a family member who has done paint and body work for years. The problem is, he was telling me that for me to get the paints, I'm looking at a few hundred dollars minimum for the "right stuff". The thing is that I know he is the type that only will buy the most expensive and best stuff out there, but I don't care too much.

Can anyone give me a ballpark idea of what it might cost to paint?
 
Since I'm getting my PM box full of the same question :( If you want to know how much the stuff costs go to the first page of the thread and look at the prices for the items "you" want to get. And yes, there will be shipping on top of that to get it over to the U.S. and some shipping to get it to your door once it arrives. :)

You never posted a link to this order in the other thread :(

Im glad i thought i should do a search so i could find it .. ;)

Anyway, i want in on a pair of fenders (L,R), a pair of side lamps (L,R), and 5 pairs (L,R) of taillights.

I will also want that grill moulding .. part # JP02GM01 if it becomes available.

When do you want us to pay?
 
If anyone wants more information on these parts, please check out the other two big threads on the subject:

And more importantly:

Here are how the taillights look: (Since i have a 90, i didnt need the socket that i posted)

http://www.naxja.org/forum/showpost.php?p=243941253&postcount=529

There is a gap below the taillights between them and the bumper ends. This is because the bumper ends are bigger on the 2500. To fix this, im going to try some round rubber door seal / weather stripping... but i have yet to do it to see how it will look. It doesnt look to bad with the gap...

Here of some pics of how the front will kinda look... If you get the fenders, it should look much better:
