End Caps for Scrambler, J-10, what else?

A question for the AMC enthusiasts. Other than Scramblers, what other models and years do these end caps fit. Now that these are available, it would be nice to know what all they fit before someone asks that question. Your help and a few pictures would be appreciated. Thanks.
 
Scramblers and '81+ J10/20 Townside and Sportside. As far as I know those are the only ones with those bumpers from the factory. The rear bumper was optional on all of those so fewer bumpers then trucks.
 
Thanks Josh. I hadn't studied the pickups much. Just got out my Jeep literature and found pictures of the chrome step bumpers with end caps in accessory catalogs from 1980 through 1985. In the 1986 accessory catalog the Jeep Comanche had a chrome step bumper with end caps but the picture (or artist rendering) looked a little different. Does anyone know if those were the same or different? I don't think there is anything AMC that can't be figured out on this forum.
 
Comanche bumper is totally different and getting to be as rare as the scrambler ones :eek:

I thought there was an end cap that was taller for sport sides? Sport sides had a taller bumper.
 
Yes you are correct, there was a taller end cap, but it wasnt a sportside thing, it was a year thing. The 1980 model year and most 1981 J-series trucks had the taller bumper with taller plastic end caps and the end cap design is universal as in it is the same part number left and right.
 
Clean MJs are getting up there in price. They have easily doubled for the same truck 5 years ago :eek:
 
We used our 86 for a plow truck, before burning up the transmission twice and my sister ran it into a ditch!
