2 DOOR JL build/order discussions master thread

[ZeroTrev]

Well mine is scheduled to be built this coming week! Already dropped money on lift, tires, wheels and it's all sitting at the dealership just waiting for the jeep to get here.

Dealer redid the labor on the lift kit and it's now almost 1k cheaper then before plus my 10% birthday code worked!!

My dealer also mentioned the Mopar 2 inch lift for 2 doors was available starting the 14th if anyone else was waiting. He almost ordered the 4 door lift...

Hello all,
I once again took 9 days off (traveling) from following and tracking. Ordered 2/5, D1 5/31, received email saying build was scheduled week of 6/11, today 866 number says still D1 .

In the 9 days I have been away, I am now behind about 43 pages on this thread - would anybody be able to tell me if I missed any 'BIG' news? I will try to get caught up - LOL.

G’morning Billy! I’ll be panels out again today, still haven’t gone full topless. I want to get the garage cleaned out so I feel better about leaving her in there, cuz once that top is off, it’ll be off for a while!
Just got done getting this week’s bugs off the windshield. What an adjustment that has been! I used to be one of those people who had to have a pristine windshield. It was clean all the damn time! Vida is helping me to relax & let that shit go! :cwl:

Morning ... well got my Rubi .. and yes worth waiting for .... Question and need help... The mileage on the Nav is reading crazy very high ... do I need to reset something .... mileage is lower right
corner ... thanks

LOL - Just a lot of us complaining about FCA. There were some good posts on how the seat releases work. A few posts about accessories folks are going to install. And we had a delivery or two.

For those that wondered about the stubby antenna reception...I tried a local radio station on yesterday morning’s coffee run. It was craptastic! Worse than before! It could totally be my area & whatnot, because the reviews on Amazon for the one I got were way up there, in number of reviews & star count. For $18, it works as what I wanted it for.

I agree, I tried a stubby on my JK and the reception was worse than before, so I ordered a black 31" antenna and the reception is now the same as with the stock antenna.

Purchased from Amazon. $20.

‘Ello, unicorn Jeep peeps!

Welcome back Ms. Lydia!

Good morning folks!

13 more 2 door window stickers on crypto today, been a pretty steady stream this past week.

According to Nicole and Jeff mine should be built this coming week! We will see..... think I will keep myself buried in work and find other activities to keep me busy after work. Otherwise I will go nuts refreshing email and tracking :p

Keeping my fingers crossed for you! You will be very happy very soon! Looking forward to you joining us in the two door owners club!

My friendly FCA case manager just notified me me Jeep is scheduled to arrive at the dealer between June 28th and July 8th (guessing it will be closer to the 8th).

Was scheduled to leave on June 28th for a long road trip with my daughter up to Maine, would have been gone until July 17. My wife jokingly mentioned we should leave early so I could be back when my Jeep comes in. What a mistake on her part, vehicle is packed and we are now leaving tomorrow morning, planning to return around July 6th. Would hate to leave my Jeep sitting on the lot to long.

Just got an update from the JL Wrangler hotline on my build status. While I am still in D1 status, I now have a estimated ship date of June 26th. Being that my dealer is 2.5 hours from Toledo, it is possible I might have it for July 4th. If this timing does hold, I will be surprised with how quickly the order was delivered (about 30 days).

Hi everyone! I received an FCA update from Nicole stating “According to an update in our systems; your vehicle has been built & approved for shipment but shipment arrangements have not yet been completed”.
My dealer has my Jeep “In Transit” online.
Has anyone had this happen before? Is it in transit because it is finished and ready for shipment or is it really in transit on a railcar?
Just curious! Thank you!! There is a light at the end of this tunnel!

I got that message. It ended up being trucked the whole way instead of Train to Selkirk, NY then trucked to CT. It left OH Friday morning and arrived in CT Monday morning.

For you folks who have been watching more closely, when was the original build date for 2 drs?

I can’t remember! Mid May was the premium soft tops. I’m thinking maybe April?
