Proper placement of factory decals

[toddpa92]

I ordered new decals from Phoenix Graphics for my 81 Scrambler. Does anyone have or know where I can get exact specifications on placement? I'm not doing it myself but I don't want my body guy to screw it up. Someone removed the decals before I bought it so I cant measure where they were.

Might help if we know what kit you getting?

There are no "exact" measurements, the factory just stuck them on

If you've ever seen Ronald Reagans Scrambler, it's the same decal as his. Same Montana Blue and all.

The Blue one is the one I'm adding decals to. The other one a Jeep I had 15 years ago with the same decals

Some reference pics on mine. The toughest is installing the rear decal.

Correct but some look waaay better than others. Not up high that's for sure. Make sure you get the rhomboidiness right. Left and right are different.

Awesome. Thank you

I can send you locations of my Renegade decals if you like which I think look right as far as height is concerned. Lengthwise obviously will be different due to your extra letter.

And when I did mine, I was told to press the razor blade into the decal around the fender to cut it; don't slice it. May cut the paint. Yes I had to trim mine a little around the fender lip. (I know you asked about the dimensions but thought this may help).

Funny Phoenix Decals was mentioned. Are they the best? I bookmarked them on ebay yesterday when I decided I'm going back to my original look from the factory.
Some may remember that I rolled my 8 on black ice, back in the 90s. I forgot about the ins deductible & the repair shop actually forgot about putting factory decals back on so we called it even & I stuck ebay RENEGADE decals on the hood.
Well, after seeing so many Great scramblers on Facebook & here, I'm going back to the original colors!
...eventually, once I get it back & do some body work

Phoenix graphics are very good. There's one or two other commercial vendors out there, but PG has a good product that even a novice can apply. Are they still a vendor here?
