Recently bought my 2019 JLU Sport S in Granite Crystal Metallic once my lease expired (3.6/8AT). The residual value meant it was too good a deal to pass up in this market. Now the fun of Jeep ownership begins.

Plans call for a very light build. I live in NYC and the Jeep is my only vehicle. I have zero plans to do any rock crawling or anything crazy off road. I also want to keep the JL's on road mannerisms - namely its peppy acceleration and reasonable steering relative to Wranglers of old - intact without having to re-gear.

Mods so far have been easy bolt-ons:
  • Rubicon take off rock sliders (shown)
  • Rugged Ridge sill guards
  • RedRock fuel door cover
  • Oracle Oculus Bi-LED 9" headlights (shown)
  • RedRock stubby antenna (shown)
Next mods on the list:
  • Lite suspension setup (Rubicon take offs + Mopar LCA + Daystar 3/4" front leveling kit). All purchased and waiting for wheels/tires to install
  • 33s on 17s. Leaning towards Falcon Wildpeak AT3Ws on Method 703s
  • Rugged Ridge Arcus front bumper + winch
  • Diode Dynamics LED fogs
