Yep. It's a Bestop Sunrider. It's perfect. No more fumbling with the Freedom Panels. Just flip a couple of latches like the soft top and flip back. When closing simply reach back and pull shut. All from the comfort of the drive or passenger seat. Easy and fast!

I'll definitely have to check it out for my husband's JK. Those freedom panels are a PITA with that screw. My JL will have the soft top, so no worries for me :)

I am currently waiting for my factory ordered 2019 Sport S. I had ordered the anti-spin differential (DSA). I noticed yesterday that the online configurator on the Jeep website does not have the option to order the DSA option with the 2019 2-door Sport S. I think (hope) that this is just an error with the online configurator. I contacted Jeep Chat but they couldn't provide any info. Ugh.

I just checked that configuration and DSA is available. Maybe a glitch in your computer...

Since the 19 build and price configuration came out it seems to have few glitches
The Canadian one you could only get the LSD option with the 2.0 turbo
It’s now back to being able to order it on the sports

Nope. Not my computer.

DSA is not available on the 2-door Sport in the configurator. It is available on the Sport Unlimited.

Not necessarily a write up but I did this a few weeks ago without issue - never ever have I done anything like this before too (so if a dummy like me can figure it out, you got this!) Anyway the post above were the steps I wanted to follow (me working through the process before I actually did it) and what I actually did was basically that.

I’m no expert, but I did it successfully and I’m happy to help, so ask me anything you’d like!

Something that helped me out: watch the CJ Pony Parts video on YouTube where he installed the Mopar 2” lift on a JL. You’re more or less doing the same thing.

Let me me know how I can help!

Thanks for the link, springs and shocks sounds pretty easy. I however got ALL these parts from a Rubicon and I don't know what else I should swap or if the only thing different between my S and a Rubicon are the springs and shocks (for suspension)

Control arms and end links are the same between all the models, only difference is the springs and shocks. Good to keep the extras around if you wheel, I’ve bent an arm on my JK few times lol

Great looking Jeep.
Thank you! It's still a work in progress and I'm getting a little impatient waiting for the vendors to catch up to my needs and desires. :headbang:
