Why the Overland

[jurfie]

Leather trimmed dash.

Easy to add after the fact, but I like that the Overland has white stitching with the black leather vs. red.

I keep going back and forth between Rubicon or Overland and add D60/60s with lockers...that and diesel vs. gas. Maybe I’ll finally make a decision and just buy one of these days.

I feel like I just need to ? or get off the ? already...

Tell me more about the 4:88 gears!

With my 35" tires. Perfect IMO. Gives the low end grunt your looking for and a crawl ratio that's needed off road. Also will be just fine if me or some future owner wanted to go to 37's. Highly recommend. If you have larger tires and still stock 373's , 488 will put a big smile on your face.

Leather dash easy to add? You are kidding, I suppose.

But is the Overland dash real leather?

Yes, JL owners have been doing it for a while now: https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/fo...itching-from-jt-launch-edition-fits-jl.34244/

That thread is about the LE dash, but the only difference for the Overland dash is the part number. Members over there have been swapping out the top dash pad in Sports as well.

Actually is really easy to add! It's just a topper. Harder to swap the door panels I think... researching that next.

Honestly, I went with the Overland because I like nicer interiors, and the overall package on the particular vehicle I chose had several perks I liked - leather interior, upgraded sound system, hard/configurable top, larger screen, navigation, etc. Like others have mentioned, I also was not a fan of the Rubicon interior. I've taken my Overland into the desert several times and am very pleased with its abilities and performance.
