New HE owner in Jacksonville FL

[2020HE]

My name is Stan from Jacksonville Beach Florida, I just purchased a slightly used 2020 Heritage Edition and got a surprisingly good deal on it (under MSRP) considering what these are going for right now and it only has 1,600 miles. I plan to use for my daily driver, light off-road and camping use and to tow my rock crawler (yes rock crawler is a highly modified 2004 Jeep Wrangler) across country. Plans so far are to get some step rails for wife (possibly rock sliders), the OEM level and a set of slightly larger than stock set of KO2s. I am not new to the off-road world, we have traversed the country with our Jeep, everything from the Rubicon Trail, Moab, Ouray, Windrock, West Virginia, Uwharrie and in between. Looking forward to a very long a reliable relationship with this 200 series.

I like the Dissent sliders on my HE, they are functional offroad sliders that look like normal steps and aluminum so they don't add hundreds of pounds.

Any chance you have a pic from further away? Those do look nice. How was the install?

Congrats and welcome to the fun! How did you manage to get one below MSRP? I've been looking around a bit and the market is nuts now.

I've got some Slee's. Love them. But, @Julian73 's dissents are lighter. And cleaner than mine were when I took this pic.

I can take a picture tomorrow. Install was not fun, lol.

If you are towing you’ll probably want a LRA aux fuel tank. Going to the gas station every hour on the road gets tiring.

I’ve been eyeing the smaller tank option so I don’t have to relocate the spare. Waiting for a referral from them on an installer near me.

Welcome to the club sir, I'm a fellow HE owner in Jax too. I just received my Budbuilt sliders a couple wks ago but still need to install them. Hopefully this wkend or the next I can get them on. I've also leveled my HE with the OEM spacers as well as upgraded my tires to 275/70/18 KO2's. I'm off San Pablo so lemme know if you want to meet up sometime to get a preview of the mods you're considering.

That’s awesome. Did you do the level yourself or have a local shop perform? I’m also off San Pablo near Mayo, will have to keep an eye out for you.

I have the 40 gallon sub tank and wished it was bigger!
