Willys Edition JL Club Thread

[captainmac44]

Ok, so I was wondering why my jeep seemed different than most of the others on here. I'm guessing the willys sport is a more basic version of the willys? This setup is perfect for me and seems $10k cheaper than the "regular" willys.

Yep, the 23K (Willys Sport) package is $2K and gives you the Moab rims and mud terrains, rock rails, fog lights and no euro bumper/fender air gap things, tinted rear windows, all-weather floor mats, blacked out grill and decals, anti-spin rear diff, bigger brakes, and Rubi shocks. A bargain if you ask me! You have to pay to add the AC. You get all this with the 23W? (Willys) package as well with AC standard, power windows/locks, and bigger/better screen/tech. The biggest thing is you have to jump up to the Willys in order to add most packages.

Are those the factory seats? I'm looking for good cloth seat covers in the tan color, I think it is a good combo with the red.

Nice look!

Looks familiar!

Never considered a black wrangler until I test drove one in Person, same setup as you. Loved how the black on black looked in person more so than photos.

You're correct, the Willys Sport is the basic version -- no frills - including no auto doorlocks and windows. It was what I wanted so I could add the mods I wanted, Spent about $10K for the mods but they were things I wanted not what I was compelled to accept by FCA.

Installed yourself? I'll definitely check them out.

Yes, it was really easy and kind of fun.

What tire pressure did the factory/dealership have your tires filled to? I've read that overinflating is an issue and mine are at 47... 10psi over factory specs! Anyone find a sweet spot for psi... factory or lower? Thanks!

Yeah, mine were @ 44 from the dealer. I lowered to spec 37 psi (I mean, its on the side of the door for a reason - lol)

Yeah, I’ve just seen some doing chalk tests and finding a better driving psi lower than 37.

Report back if you do any tests on your own!

I (like many others it looks like) went down to 37 psi and have really found that to be the sweet spot.

I took them down to 36-37 before leaving work and they’re much better.

Chief blue only lasted about 3 months at the end of 2020. Since Feb 01 it is now Hydro blue.
