It is a bit of a stiff/tough pull, but it gets in there. 4 low is a bit harder. I'm betting it will ease up with use. It isn't bad enough that I'm worried about it.
Thank you-I appreciate your insight:)

I think we should refrain from asking personal Jeep production status questions, plenty of other resources for that.... probably better served if they can observe the bigger picture of any larger concerns without being pelted by individual demands.

Sure! It's been great! I'm just under 1,000 miles and have had no issues. My dealer just called and said the lift is done and looks great. The engine is strong and the transmission/clutch/gearing is perfect. The thing is the most fun vehicle I've driven, and I haven't even taken the doors off, dropped the windshield, or dropped the top yet. The sound system is so good, it has made old favorite music interesting again. I sat in the garage just to listen to it. This thing is solid, and the fit/finish is excellent. Beats the snot out of my two previous Jeeps, and I dearly love(d) them. (YJ & JK) I'm dying to take a road trip and hit the trails. I'm doing a 7 hour drive in a week and a half to Manistee, Michigan for a snow mobile trip. I hope I get to drive it through a blizzard!

What more would you like to know?
Agreed. But I still want my damn hard manual. I called, it was suppisuppto be forwarded to a manager .... but still no manual :angry:

Hello Jasmine & Julie

I think I speak for everyone when I say we appreciate what you are doing to help! I have a JLUR on order and am very excited for my second Wrangler (currently 2012 Sahara). One small issue that came up after ordering is that if you order the all-weather mats, they delete the standard carpeted mats. I realize this isn't a deal breaker but is a little frustrating to me because I could have ordered them from Mopar after the fact at the same cost as adding them during the build and would have still had the carpet mats. I feel this (and similar issues when building) should be made very clear by Jeep's build site and by the dealer when ordering. I'd love to get a set of the carpet mats that I thought were coming with the Jeep!

It should be under the "apps" section
Read the whole treat, update will fix it, because they are not there! And no date was given for the update.

Have a JL on order but trying to line up performance parts for it ... specifically the 2" lift kit. When will parts be available to order?
There are a few places online advertising it for sale
The guys at 4wheel parts are working on my parts list for when my JLUR that is on ordered is shipped.
I’m wanting to do 37” tires and won’t until someone has the replacement 4.88 gears.

I ordered a jeep back on 12/22. it got to my dealership over a week ago. Looks like there were multiple issues when it went through the dealer inspection. (sound equipment was not plugged in, and there was a broken part that was causing the 4WD light to remain turn on even when in 2WD).

is there any recourse we have if this turns out to be a lemon?

Here are some good points of contention / issues with the new JL that need addressing. The keyless FOB / push button start being #1.

Give us the option of a real physical mechanical key like the JK had! I don't want to compromise reliability and durability for the sake of being "cool" or because it's "new and different". I want a physical key / ignition, damn it!

https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/fo...you-dont-like-about-the-new-jl-wrangler.2995/


There have already been two people stranded due to the electronic key fob and push button start. How do you like it now??

They wouldn't have been stranded if they had a mechanical key and ignition. I bet they think that button is a lot less cool now, don't they?


I am all for technology, but not at the expense of reliability. Anything that compromises the reliability or security of my vehicle, I am not in favor of.

The keyless electronic FOB compromises on reliability and security, so I am not sure why people here stroke it so much?

No one has been able to logically with empirical evidence explain to me why I would desire a keyless electronic FOB over a mechanical key. They just say things like "It's cool".

Well something being "cool" or "different" isn't a persuading factor to me. Having my key break because it gets wet and strands me with my vehicle is!

Having someone push the start button against my will because the key is in proximity is!

Having to find a place to store the stupidly large bulky key fob (and associated attached house / work keys) instead of just hanging in the ignition is.

I don't want to be unable to use my vehicle because my electronically sensitive fob is malfunctioning. With a physical mechanical key, that is never a problem.

Again, why should I desire a electronic non durable keyless fob and a push button start?
