I can check for you. Do you know what speed you want to see the rpm’s at? No I still have the factory brakes and I didn’t see any differences. I am sure there is but nothing that was noticeable
60? No big deal just curious. Thanks. I am sure there is a chart out there somewhere.

Do you know the difference in engine speed in 8th ? Also did you get bigger breaks and if not how is the breaking?
Ok so I have the Jeep today for the 500 mile check and oil change and at 60 the needle is under 2K it doesn’t touch but it is close, at 65 it is right at 2K. Hope that helps Fred

In Portland Oregon for a family reunion. When we picked up our rental I could not believe there were 5-6 wranglers unlimited. Never seen wranglers for rent before. Nice.

I rented a Sahara when I was in Ft Myers.

I rented two door Wranglers in Durango CO. for several years. Saw a lot of trails.

This is probably going to sound like a really stupid question, but I've never owned an automatic transmission. How do you know what gear you're in? Do you just count the times it shifts?
I'll have to take a pic when I hit 60 and in 6th gear in Stormie. I believe it's pretty close to what you're showing.

There's an option to have it display the gear # next to the D. For example:

Take a look at the PRND of his display. Next to the D, there is a blurry (in this photo) number, that tells autos what gear it is in. In this photo it is probably 6 or 8.

Sorry for the slow response but yup right next to the “D” it shows the gear. If I go into manual it shows in the same spot also, plus there is a +&- for up and down shifting

Do they build the 2 and 4 doors at the same time or in batches? Anyone know?

Two separate lines, I believe. They were building JK's on the line that was converted to 2 door builds later in 2018. I didn't get mine until June. :dunno:
