Willys Edition JL Club Thread

It looks like you’re treating your paint exactly as you should! Well done!

A guy at work has been waiting on his tricked out Bronco for months. He has perfect white teeth, and never has a single hair out of place on his head. He was pissed at me for breaking Ford ranks and buying a Jeep, and then he was super pissed at me for getting dirt on it. Messing with this guy is my new favorite pastime. (All in good fun, mind you.)

Just picked up today, first few mods done. Rugged Ridge Spartan side steps, Mopar grab handles, 30mm shell antenna, parachutes for my windshield Jeep.

parachutes for my windshield Jeep.

We have windshield Jeeps? Cool!

I just keep finding new things to love about this thing.

Made a friend today

A Willy's with a euro bumper??? Odd.

That’s how they came on most of the 2020’s

Huh! I did not know that! I bought a 2021 Willy's Sport, and the primary reason over the base sport was the lack of those stupid bumper parts! LOL. Thanks for keeping this guy informed!

That was the one thing I really liked about the dealership I went to (first time there). When the finance person got to all the protection stuff, she said, "I have to offer these to you, but I know your not interested, so you acknowledge I showed them to you just initial here".

Fastest finance office visit ever. Since the deal had already been agreed upon with the salesperson, it was sign here, initial here. 5 minutes tops.

It was awesome.

I'm sure you're REAL broken up by the lack of paint protection

I actually did get the door ding protection for $5 a month. I park far away to avoid dings and seem to always get them.

I was tempted to get the scratch protection but passed.

Converted my Willys into an Uplander hunting machine.

To complete the transformation I added mud flaps, door sill guards, and a gas cap cover.

One day I may get a aftermarket steel bumper with a winch but no hurry to spend $1000+ on something that will be purely cosmetic and add a few 100 lbs to haul around.

First day. And now.

2020 JLUD Willys
Teraflex leveling kit with additional 1/2" puck in the front - so 2 1/2" front and 1 1/2" rear. Mickey Thompson ATZ 35" with Fab Four stubby front. With the 35's getting ~27 MPG, so very very pleased.

My first vehicle ever was a 1953 Willys CJ3B. I bought it right out of high school. 4 banger with 3 speed MT. I painted it yellow and black with a brush. 50 years later I bought my 2021 Yella Yella Willys.

Yep, painted with a wide brush, as a kid I thought the paint stroke ridges were cool

A Willy's with a euro bumper??? Odd.

Some of the early 2020s came that way. I cut mine because I couldn't stand looking at them anymore. It's the same front bumper as the Sport. You can see mine in my avatar.

Got a few more mods done. New fuel door, Rugged Ridge tail light guards, Hollywood Racks bike carrier, Flowmaster Force 2 axle back exhaust.
Posted a video clip of the exhaust sound in the 3.6 engine sub-forum.
