His and Hers

After browsing some inspirational build threads figured I'd start my own. We decided to add another Jeep to the family 2 weeks ago. we drove to the Jeep dealership (on a Friday) and by Sunday we had a brand new 2016 (their last one on the lot) Jeep in our driveway. Going to use this thread to document both my 2008 JKU rubi and hers 2016 JKU sport but focusing on her Jeep more.

The sports is basic no power nothing, just a nice basic Jeep she wanted half doors and a softop so to our luck our local dealer had the exact configuration she wanted. Not even interested in test driving a more loaded jeep. Well long story short we are now owners of a brand new Jeep (this is actually our very first time buying New).

This is going to be a very slow but fun build.

Build List:

Armor (steel bumpers, rock slider, transmission skid)

Nice score, finding one with half doors. You can barely find one with a soft top, where I live.

You lost me at the headlight buckets... but I understand it's your wife's rig.

I really like the half doors (on both rigs).

Were the KO2 tires dealer installed?

KO2 were installed at the dealer, the jeep pictures they had online had basic road tires and a basic black rim they threw in the upgraded wheels and tires as part of the deal.

Also came with rubber floor mats.

The headlight inserts I think look nice. IDK but she was excited when she opened up the amazon box and seen the shade cover and those inserts. Hopefully next week she'll have front and rear bumpers.

Good start to a thread!

Congrats on the new Jeep.

A Jeep is getting Evo'd today. [emoji1]
