I've never done plastic rivets before, will my normal rivet gun work for those as well?
Not too sure. You can try. They're not that expensive anyway. I blew through rivets on one of my Jeeps. Doesn't hurt to keep some and the tool as a kit. lol

No, plastic shaft is much thicker. As Vic mentioned not that expensive for the plastic rivet gun. I grabbed one on Amazon

2022 JLUR XR Sting Gray - Ordered 2/10/22
Was told they brought the color back in October through December for 2023 orders. Only thing I might regret was getting the 2.0 turbo.
Engine was a tough decision for me. I went with 3.6 and love it. I think you will find that 95% of people are happy and will feverishly defend their engine choice…unless they’ve had issues. Assuming you made an informed decision, you will be happy. The wait can be frustrating but will also soon be forgotten.

Been researching JLU’s for over a year and finally pulled the trigger on a 6 mth old ‘22 Red JLUR XR loaded 3.6 w/3600 miles… we absolutely love it! Can’t wait to take it to N. Ga for some intro level wheeling!

I was wondering if that could be done, keeping the extensions. Looks great
Yea. The extensions start back just far enough to not interfere.

Anyone seen Jeep is putting 10 bolt ring on bead-lock wheel instead of 25 bolt? I don't like this look.

But that is the beauty ring not the actual beadlock ring. Wondering if the beadlock ring has more bolts and the beauty ring just covers them. I dont think 10 bolts would be enough for beadlock

There is like a 20 page+ thread where a guy is complaining about this 😆
Wife's Jeep coming, she made a face and said she liked the old ones, not the Bronco look...
