CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHERE THE PAINT CODE IS EXACTLY ON A 1987 J-20. DOES ANYONE HAVE A 1987 COLOR CHART?

Its on the VIN tag under the hood. Go to www.paintscratch.com (http://www.paintscratch.com) and you should be able to find your correct paint code and color.

OK I figured this out. If you want your paint code look at the firewall tag that is located on the driver's side top just behind the power brake booster. The top numbers are the Vehicle Identification Number, there are lower numbers starting from the inside out. The first 2 numbers are the paint code . In my case is it " 2D " for midnight blue.

Thanks for the information.....

Late model Full Size Jeep trucks were produced in very small numbers. Less than 2000 per year by 1985. Chrysler purchased AMC/Jeep in late 1987 and immediately ended production of the J-series trucks. It is unclear how many were produced as 1988 models, but most believe it is fewer than 150.
