Greetings from Reno! Wife finally approved of a Wrangler (used, but new to me). Used to have a TJ way back when it was new... Excited, just excited to have a Wrangler again.

First time Jeep owner in Phoenix. Picked up my friend’s 21 JLU Sport S 2.0 last month when he moved to Oregon. It will be my daily commuter and, I hope, some weekend fun. Put on a new pair of shoes yesterday. Had to replace the original tires…or, wanted to. Love my new KO3s. No plans to build, just enjoy the ride. Happy trails.

Greetings from Orlando! I’ve visited this forum over the past 3 years, but I’m just now becoming a member. I’ve had my ‘22 Sahara Altitude Ecodiesel for 3 years, and I just got the Mopar lift and wheels installed this past weekend. Looking forward to exploring the site more. Cheers!

It came with it. I am not sure if I like it or not. It is a Smittybilt Defender Rack.
Is it attached to the roof? I personally want the Gobi Rack Ranger or Stealth. I have to save the pennies because those things are not cheap.

It attaches to the drip rails on the back portion of the top. I am not sure what the weight rating of the drip rails would be, but I would guess on the low end. The rack is about 4.5ft x 4.5ft. It does have tabs for lights, and the front panels are still removable.

I have since removed it, and trying to sell it locally. I couldn't imagine the shipping cost from NNV to AL. Probably would be cheaper to have 4WP ship it to your door.

Jeep Wrangler JLU 2023
Hi All
Found your forum by accident. Looks like a friendly, very knowledgeable group. I’m UK based and have had YJ, TJ and Cherokee‘s in the past. Now a 2023 JL. Owned for the past 15 months. Bought from a dealer as standard but now has a few mods. Very pleased with it.
Currently on the way back to the UK after a 3 week trip to Iceland. Jeep has been faultless👍
