Base Sport owners…

[TheDerb]

All of you Base Sport owners. I’m curious what you all do when you get them, and even more curious as to whether or not anyone has bought the Base with no intention of upgrading / modifying at all.
Thanks!

I bought the base sport for my JL and turned it to a full blown rock crawler. When I bought my JT I went with the sport S as it is a pain not having auto locks.

I bought the Base sport soft-top with intentions of running topless at most times. Did not want power locks or windows, changed too many actuators in my time. Doorless is as easy as lifting doors off , nothing plugged in. I do not lock the doors as I have a soft top any way.

put Rubi springs in front with 3/4 inch spacer ( netted 2 " of lift )
Left rear spring alone (stock LSD as well )
Method wheels and General AT tires in 285 70 17
added 7 inch screen radio
Antenna delete
Reaper front bumper and skid
Have stabilizer relo to put on

I love the crank windows, but after a few weeks I'm starting to wish I had power locks. I don't lock it often but when I need to its a pain to unlock all four doors. Especially since only one is unlockable from the outside.

I've added some side rails and a bullet point phone mount.

Wife wants to add Katskins with heaters eventually. Not sure when that will happen.

Most serious mods will happen after the extended warranty expires in 107,000 more miles. I like the idea of truetracs front and back and gearing to support 35s.

Based off of tire usage in my JK wrangler, the tires on my gladiator will probably be replaced in 2-3 winters and if I haven't done the gears yet I will probably try to find some tall 33s or some 34s. Wife and I also want to swap the wheels with bronze ones, we think they will look great with the Sarge Green.

I played a stupid amount of Halo when I was in my masters program and watched a lot of Red Versus Blue. I want this bumper and a winch: I think the bumper will really help make it look like a puma/chupathingy/warthog

I'd also like to get some kind of on board air setup at some point.

Does your passenger door not have an outside lock?

I do agree it would be nice if all 4 had locks from the outside. I've gotten used to the reach around to get the back ones though lol

I want to go check now but I'm almost positive it doesn't have an outside lock. Maybe its just that I don't use it because 90% of the time when I have to unlock it I'm with my kids and they don't have a key, so I have to unlock from the inside anyways.

edit: turns out I’m wrong and it does have a passenger side exterior lock; it’s just that my kids don’t have keys so I end up reaching over to unlock the doors.
