Are they charging more through moparts than during build?
Yes. Wasn’t able to order steel bumper when I placed my order and did not want to wait because no one knew when they would become available again. It is quite a bit cheaper to order with build as now I have to not only pay more for the bumper, but I also have to buy the skid plate that is included with the steel bumper from factory, AND I have to buy special brackets for the fog lights to fit as the brackets that come with the plastic bumper won’t work in the steel. So yeah it would of been way better to have just been able to order with the truck.

Yeah, I’ve got in on my 19 JL Rubi with a winch in it and the Mopar 7 inch LED lights and I’m going to put them on my gladiator.
Nice... I got my wife a 19 rubi last month so I'm just jealous lol

I went out on a limb with the color. The description sounded perfect but the color on the jeep builder website was not what I wanted. I ordered it as soon as it came open. Quick build, 2 months to my door.
I'm a color kinda guy, hence the punk'n orange. Still anxiously awaiting the retro scrambler graphics to get make by a vendor to break it up a bit.

Ordered A pumkin Sport Max-tow, with 3 piece hardtop and the spray in bedliner on 7/19/19... Got a VIn about three days after ordered, been sitting in D status. I figure I'll check next week on Friday and see if it's moved at all. My dealer said to expect 8 to 10 weeks from order... anything earlier would be kind of rare, but I'm in Montana... and shipping might be part of the issue with us getting anything earlier.

I live 45 minutes from the plant and I don’t expect to see my order in 8-10 weeks. My last 2 JL orders, one took 4 months, the other took 5 months.

I talked to Jeep Chat. They told my 8-12weeks for delivery. I just want it before it gets cold to experience all door/roof off once.

Thankfully where I live I'll be able to go most year without. Another reason to get my own, wife isn't the best fan of the doorless.

I'm still looking at numbers between 35s and 37s and everyone's experiences. Ran 35s with my JK and didn't notice much loss of power with the 4.10s. I might do it and regear as needed to 4.88s later to get low end back.
