Fair point. I could have probably used another, more expensive hobby, but the principal tends to apply throughout.
True that. I also like to apply āI work too hard to not but nice things for myselfā
Someone mentioned it earlier, but I see a lot of people in here suffering from FOMO. This happens a lot in the PC building community, too. Something new is always around the corner, so you could end up in this endless cycle of āholding out just a little longerā.
Theres a couple of features the...
Iāve had the RC table on mine for a couple months now and have absolutely no complaints. It handled the 3 straight days of wheeling and the 1500+ miles Iāve put on the Jeep since having it installed.
It has even held up to a couple of rain showers (had Jeep in safari mode and got some...
Put on some vent decals yesterday. Took longer than I expected, but thatās par for the course. Still doing the small stuff. Still pinching pennies here and there to try and get a lift.
I think you could find the Rubicon suspension take offs for around $200 or less. You could likely find a deal on tires (and the wheels if like the Rubicon styled ones) on FB as well. May be harder since 18s are a little less common.
Whatās your footwell look like?
I installed the dead pedal in my 2021, but wondering why that area would be different.
Thereās this thread about the center console difference (I think itās due to the front trail cam).
Keep the stuff you want and is too much of a pain to add later. I.e. for you that would be safety group and proximity entry.
You can buy half doors, the bigger infotainment, and even remote start, but it sounds like half doors may be worth it for you up front since the cost difference to add...
I loved my two-door Willys, and only went Rubicon because we needed a 4-door and the price differences a few months ago for what I wanted in a Willys vs a Rubicon was negligible in my eyes.ā¦well at least worth the extra for peace of mind on what the Rubicon offered me.
I love my Rubicon, but...
I had a KL Cherokee in Hydro Blue and that was a gorgeous color. You guys are gonna love itā¦itāll look especially good with the 392 accents or with all the black contrast of the Willys or Sahara HA trims. (IMO) it looks slightly off with any silver in the mix.
Had someone steal change from my center console in the two door hard top because I left the doors unlocked, but no incidents with my JLUR with soft top. Iāve always heard that I should be afraid of my top being slashed, but fingers crossed it remains a non-issue.
Had a pretty intense (to me) incident with a biker on the way back from a backpacking trip in my 2-door.
Canāt say fully unprovoked, but I was cut off so that he could make a last second exitāafter 3 days of backpacking and 3 hours into my 5 hour drive back home, I was exhausted and his action...
Iām personally a hand wash type of guy. Sometimes Iāll use a self-service wash in a pinch. I donāt trust any non-touchless car washes to not leave swirl marks in the paint. Iām apparently perfectly capable of that on my own š.
The soft top makes washing easier because less paint to clean. I...
I was super against the soft top on my two-door, but when looking for my JLUR, I wanted to test drive it to check out the noise and to really see how annoying the rear window removal was.
The rear window still isnāt as convenient as my hard top, but thatās to be expected. It still wasnāt as...
I donāt care for them, but Iāll still give ya a wave. Who am I to tell you how to spend your money?
As long as you donāt try to squat a Jeep, I think we can all be friends š¤.
It seemed to be awesome in my Willys, but I would say to do your research on the LSD issues. If youāre going Rubicon, itās a non-factor, but there was enough people with reported issues on the LSD D44 that made me nervous about it.
Didnāt help that with the 34ās I had on my Willys, I was...
Pretty much this. I grew up in a small town in NC, 5 minutes from the SC border and it was usually old GM/Chevys. Now in the triangle area and our complex has a squatted K1500 š.
I would say I feel bad for them, but he's done a few things already that changed my mind. I hope he fixes it or...
Iām just genuinely not a big fan of Chief or Nacho. Chief doesnāt look good on the JK or JL, IMO. Nacho just looks like that school bus color that every manufacturer tries and gets rid of because two or three people like it.
Iāve always thought Granite was super boring, but I get the appeal of...
