Willys Edition JL Club Thread

[Willys22]

Thanks! It's the oem Willys suspension with bf goodrich 285/70/17. Ride quality improved big time over factory tires

Thanks, then it looks like you installed Rubicon fenders with Rubicon tires. I really like this configuration!

Ok, I’m looking for the best MOPAR 2.5 inch lift. I see a lot of posts about the death wobble and I want no part of that. I’m not unhappy with the stock look with my 35’s but I’d like a small lift. Any links to great lifts would be appreciated!

Very cool. I have a Willys on order and I am yet to experience the Firestone MTs in daily driving conditions.
If it is beyond my noise bearable level, I will switch it out to this very setup! BFG KO2s and also add the Rubicon springs and suspension.

I read a few posts as to how the Sport model Jeep would be better served (although not a 100% necessity) to have the Rubicon springs and suspension, to better take the load of the added mass of the 33" tires.

Indeed, I have a Rubicon suspension takeoff group in my garage waiting for me to slap it on. I definitely want to add some lift, but not too much.

I’m going with the KO2s as well once my M/T2s have hit the end of their life. They look really good on your ride. I love the white letters.

Question: Are you still running the stock tire carrier? You seem to have waaaay more room between the spare and bumper than I do for mine currently.

I added a relocation bracket to clear the handle on swing hitch adapter. This is the one I used...

Damn you. That's the color combo I was originally hunting for, love it. Just couldn't get my hands on one without an order.

Great color choices...particularly the top.

Here’s my 2021 so far. I’ve had it since October and have nearly 4,000 miles on it. I’ve done the teraflex 1.5” lift, kmc Mesa wheels, 35” toyo open country M/T tires, Oracle headlights and tail lights, mopar steel bumper, rugged ridge spare tire carrier, rigid pod lights, diode dynamics clear corners.

Are those 18" wheels? What offset are they?

They are 17s and I think -24 if I remember correctly

Gorgeous Willys! Well done!

Just curious. Been reading through this Forum from the beginning and see a lot of comments about wet traction and MT tires. What I don't see is those that opted for the 2.72:1 Selec-Trac® Full-Time 4WD System as this would allow auto 4WD to be enabled during wet/icy/snowy conditions. I have Auto 4WD in two other vehicles and they work flawlessly and opted for this option on my Willys Order.

Anyone have the Selec-Trac on their Willys?

Has anyone ordered a 2022 JL Unlimited Willys Edition and received their order? If so, how long did it take for you to at least get your order built/shipped?

I ordered one April 1 (with few add-ons, just the cold weather group) and my order has not budged. I know this is nothing compared to those who ordered in November-March and are still waiting, but I was just curious if any have been built and shipped yet.

My brother ordered a Willys with the XR package a few days after me and his is already built and in the shipping stage.

I was wondering if anyone else is having the same experience?

I ordered mine on 4/14 (pretty loaded out too) and according to the dealer it has a build date of 5/25 (next week). But I have still not seen a build sheet for it and when I contact FCA Chat they just say it's in queue and to contact dealer for build date. So that's where I'm at. Fingers crossed it actually starts being built next week.

Bought it 2/26/22 and now have 5,500 miles on it along with a few mods.
