JL 2 door pic and mod thread

[VolCntry73]

Those ACE sliders look pretty sweet. I'm actually debating on getting some Ace steel doors. I've been asking around on the forum what people think of them in look and quality.
What do you guys think?

I like 'em. I'm assuming that the fronts only would fit the 2 door. https://aceengineeringandfab.com/collections/jl-products/products/jl-trail-doors-front

Mopar 2” Lift
Method MR606 20x10 -24 offset
Cooper STT Pro 37x13.5r20

Rides fantastic. Mopar life is amazing. Slightly noticeable difference with 37s in accelerating and also braking. Stoked.

Not mine, but helped a customer install a 2.5" RC lift, bumper and 315/70r17 KO2's on factory Sport wheels. Everytime I work on a 2door I regret getting a 4 door

Looks great! Can you take a full side view pic? I dont see many 20's with 37's on 2 dr's.

Thanks! Appreciate it. I’m pretty stoked with how it turned out.

I 'was' not a fan of 20 inch wheels. I know I might be biased, but they look great on a 2 door

Appreciate it! I was really on the fence about it. If I didn't go with 37s I definitely would have stayed away from the 20" wheels. But with the beefy 37s, it maintains almost the same sidewall as 35s with 17" wheels. I decided to try it out for a season, can always switch it up later if I end up not loving it. I cant wait to get these puppies off the pavement!

Not really a modification but shows 2 door versatility vs 4 door. Pictures show 2 door with Gladiator work bench, Top Lift Pro and Thule 4 bike rack tucked neatly inside garage with door closed. Short side of the garage and I still have almost 3 feet to spare.

Take that 4 whores, I mean doors

That’s my husband’s favorite thing about my 2-door—I can put my doors & back seat against the wall in the same bay where I park.

I love my 2-door. I wouldn't trade it for an Unlimited if you paid me. But the Unlimited is 22" longer. It would fit in your garage bay too if you currently have 3 feet to spare. Just saying... ;-)

Yep, but it couldn't back up to provide access to the work bench with the garage door closed.
Or pull forward to access trash and recycle bins. It would just be pilled in there, just saying ;-)

Has anyone found an oil pan skid that works with the 2 door? I was about to pick up the quadratec aluminum engine and transmission skid until a member here found it does not work properly with the 2 door (and got quadratec to update their website). But since then I've been looking for another option and haven't found anything. I'd like something to protect the oil pan and those transmission cooling lines, while still providing access to the oil drain plug for easy service.

The EVO skid works, with a bit of trimming.

The have the engine skid for the 2 door, but it's not on the website. I emailed them and asked them to make me one in 1/4" AL; now I'm just waiting for delivery. I will post pics once I receive it.

I have their 4 door AL skid system on my JKUR and it's been great.
