Maybe you should wait for Sarge. I think it would look good on a Gladiator.

I am ordering that one right now - 26Q. The only thing that I see that is a negative is the normal duty suspension (missing FRONT HEAVY DUTY RED SHOCK ABSORBERS (SFE) & ANTI-SPIN DIFFERENTIAL REAR AXLE (DSA))

But other than that, hoping that one is worth buying @bnapton

I noticed you are in SoCal, what dealer are you using? I wish the Jeep site had one to look at or build. It would be nice to see all the accents and badges. Any idea if the rear seat has a center armrest?

I am using the Torrance ScottRobinson dealer. Yeah, it would be nice to see the differences. No idea on the rear armrest, other than if you check a rubicon, there is one -- if you check the willys, there is not. And there is no mention of adding one with the 80th edition.

The rear seat armrest is a leather thing, you only get it in a rubicon, mojave or overland with the factory leather.

Has anyone ordered an 80th-anniversary edition? I'm considering it with all of the options they're adding in the package.
I considered it briefly when I ordered mine, as all of the stuff included in it is what I optioned on Sport S... but I wanted Max Tow w/ LImited Slip, wide axles & different gear ratio. All the cosmetic stuff would be cool and unique, but I didn't really think too hard on it once I saw Max Tow wasn't available.

Question: So I ordered the 2021 80th Edition version. And I understand that adding a 2" mopar lift kit will work on a Rubicon with 37s.
But will it not work on the 80th Edition diesel with 37s? Or is that a no go because the tires will rub & maybe even rub more because the engine is so heavy?

Awesome, great to know. Do you happen to know if 37s will work with that 2" lift kit on a non Rubicon model?

To follow up on my earlier post (#66) in this thread, this week I ordered a Willys Diesel from Kent Shurtleff with Peterson Jeep in Idaho at 7% under invoice. None of the Utah dealers I spoke with would go below much below invoice. Their loss, my gain.
