Hey everyone,

Just picked up my '18 Hellayella JLU Sport S with the 6 speed yesterday and already loving it. It's pretty basic - only option is the S package and the hard top but it's a nice place to be and looks awesome. Other cars in the fleet are a Forester XT and a Mazda3 hatch, so the Jeep is now our family convertible/fun car after we sold our first-gen Miata on Wednesday. No serious mod plans now besides maybe picking up some take-off Sahara side steps or Rubicon rock sliders and definitely need to get a soft top.

I'm in northeast Ohio and new to Jeeps/off-roading so if anyone has ideas for a newbie-friendly off-road venues to recommend or just want to meet up, shoot me a PM!

Also in NE Ohio and just got a new Wrangler.

would be interested in nearby areas to off road, especially for newbs. Let me know what you find out!

Howdy man! Sorry been on the road a lot driving... work driving that is Anyway those are KMC XD 137 FMJ wheels, and Milestar Patagonia 38x13.5x17 tires.

Hey Phunkz no worries, I appreciate the reply with the details. I'm always looking for wheel tire combinations that look good with Ocean Blue. I'm not ready to get any, but save these details for the future when I can afford them

Just checking in from Indiana. Last Jeep was a built WJ, 8” Clayton long arm lift, 44/60, 241HD, Klune Goliath box, and other stuff. Currently have a built FZJ80, and a stock, locked LX450. While waiting on the next iteration of the M4, I decided to order a JLUR from Criswell. Will be a daily, but throwing on an AEV 2.5” lift, Metal Cloak track bars, AEV Borahs on 37’s, and a regear to 4.88. Should have the JLUR here in about 2 weeks. Excited for my first Wrangler!

Checking in from Kentucky. Purchased my sting-gray JLUR 3.6 in May. Pretty basic for the most part. LOD destroyer sliders, Borla rock climber exhaust, S&B intake, warn low grille guard, Mopar grab handles. Ripped the hard top off immediately when i got it. During the warm months I run it with no top, Mopar tube doors, and CMM side mirrors. During the cooler months i use a Mopar soft top. Warn platinum winch on the way with the F55 Ultrahook. Just waiting on Mopar to release the winch mounts. Anyway, since May i have used this forum for Jeep research. Any questions just ask.

Hey guys,

I'm checking in from India. I'm not sure if there's anyone else on these forums from here but I'm excited to be a part of the community.

Just bought my first Jeep! I've been dreaming of a Wrangler since before I can remember and finally picked up a new JLU.
I absolutely love it so far and I cannot wait to get into some gnarly adventures with this bad boy.

Tatltael, I am from Sydney Australia. Your Jeep looks great! Which model is it?

Thanks Joe!

We don't get options or trims here. Just one model called the Wrangler Unlimited. From the spec sheet it looks like it's basically a fully loaded EU spec 2.0 L Turbo Sahara with SelecTrac + LSD. It comes with leather interiors, 8 in Uconnect, premium audio, LED package, dual top package,

I’ve heard great things about Southington. Will definitely check it out.

I’m also going to keep looking to see if I can find something a little closer to Cleveland.

Hi,
Picked up my 2020 JLUR last week. This is my second Unlimited, I had a 2005 LJ that I got rid of for my wife’s van and last week we got rid of the van for the new Jeep. I could not be happier!

Hi folks. Been lurking for years. Just ordered JLUR Diesel today. Keeping my existing JKUR as well.

This site has been a fantastic resource for me over the last month, or so, as I narrowed my search for a new Rubicon.

 

[StephenM]

Checking in from NE Florida. Previously had a 16 JK and a 16 JKU Sahara. Last Friday, I traded in the JK and picked up a 2020 JLU Rubicon. So far, it seems like this was a wise choice. I will miss the old guy but looking forward to the new adventures.

 

[Jorts]

NE Florida as well... where did you end up getting yours from?
