Putting a 85 GW Grill on a 88 GW will it work?

Post by Oldmanwag »

I've decided that the 85 Grill on the GW looks better than whats on the 88. Question will it fit? Anyone tried that?

Thanks greatly! That Cherokee Grill looks sharp! Since the 88-90 grill surround is getting way to hard to find undented I need other options.

Yea my outline metal grill frame thingy on my 90 is undented and has good chrome.. this cherokee one has a dent an the chrome is a little scratched up.. I did realize the center peice can just be taken out and the outer frame csn be kept on.

I might put my original one back on as thr JEEP emblem and Jeep on tje grill could be see as too much.. plus no dent and better chrome.

But overtime i did like the JEEP on the outerframe so i left it
