Let me preface this by saying I love talking about all things cars. The most satisfying in person conversation I’ve ever had was regarding a high mileage 1980’s Grand Marquis and the least satisfying was regarding a newer Ferrari (heck…I even forgot what kind of Ferrari it was!). That Ferrari owner was so proud. 🙄

All Custom Stuff will be Great to see as well!

I’m driving a 2021 JLUR (Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon) with 285 hp 3.6 L V6.

Mods:
2.5” lift
Front Adjustable Track Bar
325/60R20 BFGoodRich Mud Terrains
20x10 Ballistic Rage Wheels
12 lights (10 forward facing and 2 rear)
12k Winch

Has factory 10” 200 Watt 2 ohm Alpine sub
Added (more like in the process of adding)…
JL Audio 300 watt 2ohm amp
JL Audio Driver Side Stealth box with 10” 300 watt 2 ohm sub
Audio Control LC2i
T-Spec 1.5 Farad Cap

Has 18" Fuel Wheels. Rock sliders. And I will be putting in 2 10" subs in a Fox Box, Audio Legion 700 watt mono amp, Axxera 4 channel, CDT Audio mids and highs, and a Jensen double din. Also planning on putting a FlowMaster muffler on just for sh!ts and giggles this summer

Nice! I don’t know much about these. Does the TRD have factory lockers? I believe you have some good skidplates if I’m not mistaken.

That thing is going to bump once you get those 10’s in!

Off Road Tuned suspension w/ Bilstein Shocks
Electronic Control Locking Rear Differential
LSD
VSC+ A-Trac w/ HAC and DAC
Engine Skid Plate
Tow Package Class IV
Transmission Oil Cooler
Trailer Sway Bar

Thats about it

Just because I know some are gonna ask

HAC And DAC Explained​

These two features are starting to become more commonplace in new Toyotas these days. If you're unfamiliar with the acronyms let me explain. HAC, or Hill-Start Assist Control, is a mechanical assist built into the car to allow you to perform a hill-start easier. DAC, Downhill Assist Control, is another system for allowing you to go downhill safer.

I was going to ask about the acronyms. 😉

I replaced my factory shocks with Bilstein ones and I think they’re great! Sounds and looks like a great truck!

Do you use the rear locker much?

I try to put Bilsteins on anything I own. One of the best shock makers around next to Fox Shocks. Sadly they didn't make them for my '03 Explorer till recently and the cost was crazy since it is all struts. But I had them on a few vehicles before that and always a much nicer ride & they will make them according to your lift kit as well which I had on the '99 Grand Cherokee and '00 Wrangler.

Not yet. Just bought it in September 2022.

Do you miss your TJ? I’m on my third Wrangler starting with a 93 YJ in the 90’s.

Yeah, I received my Bilsteins from the AEV lift. People are shocked at how comfortable the Jeep rides.

Yes and no. It was a 4.0 with the 5 speed so a ton of torque in that short wheelbase and I could go through stuff that my friends in their 3/4 ton Chevy's and Ford's with big blocks couldn't go through. They would get stuck and I would fly right by them sometimes in 2wd,lol. I remember one time I had it buried up to the windows in mud/water flew through it slowed down stopped threw it into 4H and kept on going where they were stuck and had to be pulled out.

It was a fun little vehicle when you are 24 but now eh. Too old and too many surgeries to be climbing up into a lifted vehicle even with running boards.

I’m a lot older than 24, so you’re good to go to get back into a Wrangler. 😉 If my wife’s 80 something grandma can get in my lifted on 35’s Jeep I’m sure you can still do it. 😝
