No, there's more to it than just the door handles. Someone on the JL forums tried to get it done and got all the parts, but couldn't get the dealer to add the sales code to his BCM so it wouldn't work. I really hope there's a solution for this in the future
You shouldn't put up with that dealer. "It's a Jeep thing" is the most BS excuse ever which is unfortunately accepted by way too many people. I would continue bringing it in and hopefully if they turn you away too many times you could lemon law it.
To play devil's advocate, he's comparing a JLU (Sport? Sahara?) to JT Rubicon which has different steering than the other JT trims. The only people I've seen complaining about steering on JT's have been Rubicon trims, but I haven't been paying too close attention to be honest.
I just did this mod last night with the same thumbscrews. I was very disappointed to hear how much the top rattles now. Yes, the thumbscrews are tight and yes they all have the washers installed properly.
1/10, will be putting stock bolts back in tonight.

I wonder what the difference is...
I mean, if I'm paying ~$500 to get LineX installed I would expect the installer to do the prep work themselves to cover threaded holes. I would definitely clarify this prior to the work being performed to make sure.
Which configuration JL is it? Weight plays a huge factor; the 2-door JL is ~3950lb and the JLU is ~4450lb. Your launch edition is probably closer to ~4800-5000lb. As a general rule of thumb, ~100lb = ~10hp difference
Lol yep, so far so good for me. I'm planning on getting the Oracle LED headlights or maybe OEM next year anyway, so if these bulbs burn out I won't be heartbroken. I don't do a lot of night driving anyway
You're assuming that the stock tune runs a consistent 14.7:1 AF ratio. If stock tune is running 11:1 and the RIPP tune runs 13:1, then theoretically the RIPP tune will allow you to gain MPG. This of course ignores all other variables that go into tuning (such as if it's a safe AF ratio for the...
