Diggin' the blacked out rims man, storage is a good idea too.

Hopefully you’ve been running Amsoil since day 1.……………………

There are people hitting 300,000 miles on gasoline engines running Amsoil. My Tahoe was on the way, but we sold it at 247,000 miles.

Nice - now if I only had a commander for parts... haha

What about this?
http://protexco.trustpass.alibaba.com/p ... ocket.html

Then tear out the elastic from an old jacket?


There are also these (a bit more expensive but all the 'parts' are there i guess):

LINE-X... You can't do it by yourself... You can do something like herculiner.... or duplicolor bedliner by yourself....


and Jayme... Where do you think I got the Idea... :wink:

It was on my kj when I bought it... and it's also a part listed on my build sheet. OEM part, I gather. I thought they were pretty common when I first got the kj. I know otherwise now.

Great for holding the recovery strap.


found it!
in the parts diagram i have for 02, it lists a few different items for "PANEL, Liftgate Lower"

5GE89WL5AC [L2, L5]
5HE65WL5AC [L2, L5], With Storage Net
5GE89XDVAC [D2, DV]
5HE65XDVAC [D2, DV], With Storage Net

I have no idea what the [D2, DV] and [L2, L5] are. Maybe color codes?

Well
the GE89 means without net - the 65WL is with net
WL5 is apparently Taupe and the XDV is Slate Grey

and the fun part -
5HE65XDVAC [D2, DV], With Storage Net - List price 366.00 Mopar Parts 251.85
5HE65WL5AC [L2, L5], With Storage Net - List price 321.00 Mopar Parts 220.80

Grey costs more than Taupe? Oh Well
cdiekhans's solution is looking a lot better.
