Your ultimate JL

[Opus]

Don't get me wrong, I love my Jeep. But if I had essentially unlimited funds...

• Tan slant-back soft top or maybe a tan MyTop
• Tan seat covers (Katzkin or maybe Carhartt)
• Updated speakers and head unit
• Bronze Method wheels with more aggressive A/T tires - probably 37s since it wouldn't have to be a DD
• Portals
• Winch and aluminum bumpers
• A Hellcat shoehorned into the 2-door (which would absolutely be a contributing factor to my untimely death)
• Can't decide if I'd keep the Reign, or respray in true Plum Crazy. Either way I'd want color matched fenders.

I'm actually working my butt off to try and make it a reality (note this only happens after family priorities/investments etc. are taken cared of first):

• Factory ordered 2024 Jeep 392 with factory winch (completed)
• Phase 1 ((completed)
  • Metalcloak Undercloak complete skid system including resonator and exhaust skid
  • Arb differentials front and rear
  • Metalcloak front and rear lower control arm skids
  • Remove passenger side crash bar
  • Remove locator pins on the exhaust tail pipes to rotate them out of harms way
• Phase 2 (budgeting to get this done in next 6-9 months)
  • 2.5 inch lift
    • Rock Krawler 2.5 spring kit
    • Rock Krawler no limits sway bar links
    • Metalcloak bumpstops
    • Globex Performance aluminium arms with Krawler joints at axles side and Adventure joints frame side
    • Globex Aluminium tie rod/drag link steering kit
    • Synergy Sector shaft brace
    • Metalcloak Baller ball joints
    • Clayton front and rear track bars
    • Front Adams driveshaft (1310 CV)
    • FOX 2.5 DSC reservoir shocks
    • Cavfab tire carrier
    • Quaker kit to split stock fenders
    • Artec front/rear inner fenders
    • Artec front truss kit
    • Front RCV axles
    • 38/12.50/17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers
    • PSC 392 Adventure kit (XD gear box with hydralic pump kit minus ram)
    • RSE rock sliders
    • Tazer mini to adjust everything electronic
  • If factory axles ever fail (hopefully this won't happen, I'm not a "hold my beer and send it offroading kinda person)
    • Currie Platinum 70's for the 392

No one would buy one of each color and drive a different one every day of the week?

Not quite the singular ultimate JL but, instead, an ultimate collection

...
6.7L Cummins swap
...

My god that would be the dream, but the 5.9 is the biggest that can possibly fit, and even that takes some serious mods to make it work.

That would buy you enough reliability to be able to daily a Jeep.

1 in 7 chance, who knew?

I would take it to bad ass 4x4 and say strip it down to the shell and get rid of all the electronics, motor, transmission, axles and start over. No lift , add the 5.7 hemi. Needs would be ps,pb,ac,pw and a fucking cd player, radio nav system. A locker system other than oem. Eaton or air. A lot of this they do already. I'm interested in being able to have piece of mind when going off road or to the grocery store and know the chances of a problem happening is less. I'm. sure I forgot something. I remember putting all new gauges (mechanical) in my older jeeps. Worked like a charm for many years. The new 8 speed transmission is great. Too bad it doesn't have linkage connections as a back up when the electronics crap out. I'm sure someone could add to this list.

the transmission couldn’t even shift without functioning electronics.

This is probably going to be the least popular answer:

I'd wipe out all of the electronics in my current Wrangler, drop the engine put in a Cummins 5.9, redo all the wiring... Beyond that probably just keep doing what I'm doing.

Rich or not, I'm still a gonna be a cheapskate!


That would allow me to put money towards other things I want to do, like a lifted off-road mini cooper, the second gen Corvette stingray I want to drop turn into a four-wheel drive off-road demon, take a Kia soul and use it for target practice, buy a Mercedes-Benz W461 and turn it into a monster truck and actually off-road with it!! Get the greatest worst vehicle ever, a Geo and transition it to run on fryer oil, and paint it gold leaf, that way I can be blazing down the street looking rich as **** leaving a trail of french fries scents while getting 42 MPGs!!!

You should all be afraid if I ever get rich. The last thing we all need is me having the funds to do all the stupid shit I want to do.

I can't wait, rock on bro!

I'm changing my choice of mytop to the fastback version. I think that looks pretty cool.

 

[Craigger]

I don't think I'd change much in the direction I'm taking my Jeep. I love doing my own work and these days I don't have a lot of free time. Add to that I'm no longer in my 20's - so the time it takes for me to install things is my limiting factor.

Money no object, I'd get a huge garage with a 2-post lift and a diesel pusher so I wouldn't have to worry so much about weight when I tow the Jeep.

New seat covers

Nice ass-sets!

 

[4xFUN]

Well boys and girls, if I won the Powerball my cost-no-object Jeep would be a version of the TrailCat below that Jeep built for an EJS. Add a hardtop, doors, extra insulation and a kick ass stereo system...


Jeeps TrailCat:
6.2 Supercharged Hellcat, 39's, tons and a slightly stretched wheelbase! One Bad Ass Jeep!

And it looks like it will glow in the dark. What's not to love?

Damn unpopular, Ya don’t butcher a C-2, or a
C-1, or a 71 down C-3, use a pathetic post 71 like the 165 HP 75.
The C-2 Sting Ray was the 63,
Don’t You Dare !!!…
Stingray (one word) reinstated in 69

It would be a definite improvement for the post 71’s

I would even stretch it to 72, still had front and rear bumpers. When they lost the bumper in 73 they lost me too.
