Stock Jeep Wrangler TJ Showcase

I’ll play. Mine originally had all the manly man stuff on it. I love how sleek it looks stock.

This is before, at the height of it’s Quadratec looking days.

And this is current. It just looks so much classier this way, and it’s just as capable.

Don't know, I haven't put any significant milage on it yet. I've just had it idling in the drive way so far. I have a doctors appointment tomorrow, and the office is almost an hour from the house. If I can't get it out today, I'll definitely get it out tomorrow. If it's going to fail, it should do it tomorrow.
Hopefully I'll be able to drive it some today.

@Zedd , I almost forgot! (This will show you how crazy I am about keeping things stock. Lol) I installed a 1Factory radio. They take the stock head units and upgrade them with Bluetooth and 3.5mm jacks. The Bluetooth button is the little blue button on the bottom left of the radio, and my 3.5mm Jack is routed into the glove box.
I really wanted to change out the head unit, but I hate the look of the after market radios. Yes, they sound 100 times better, and have a lot more features, but to me they just don't look nearly as nice.
I will be installing an LC7i amp on this 1Factory radio, and installing better speakers and subwoofer. Everything will be completely hidden in the dash and center console, so it will still look completely stock but sound way better.

I'm 100% with you on that, I hate those flashy light up aftermarket head units. If I could justify it at the moment, I'd go with a 1Factory unit like yours, very nice touch mate

Thanks @Hammer24 !
The Bluetooth works great, I listen to the spotify thru it all the time. I haven't used the 3.5mm Jack yet tho, sadly stupid samsung did away with the 3.5mm output. It will sound much better when I install an amplifier and new speakers. Megadeth just doesn't sound the way it should thru low powered 14 year old stock speakers! LOL!!

I love it in its current state! nicely done!

Stock or heavily modified, showroom or a rust bucket. Every TJ turns my head! and makes me drool a little.. 🤤

Agreed. They all look so good.

That said, since I'm still hunting for my first Wrangler (leaning heavily towards an LJ), the stock ones do catch my eye more.

I did the same thing this weekend! I ripped out my Kenwood and put the factory radio back in. It just looks like it “belongs.” I haven’t heard a CD skip, let alone played a CD, in years. So the first couple times I hit bumps and it skipped it took me off guard lol.

And yet, another "SILVER ONE" :
Pretty stock, no lift, bigger tires, rubi rims, steps, mini fogs, chrome hooks. Too much stuff
looks cheesey !! That's why i'm still wavering about adding a bumper or hood mounted small light bar. That would be the end, I don't see or feel the need for anything else, I like the look just the way she is.

I see what you mean! And no, I didn’t mean i’m never selling it b/c no one would buy it lol.

I think it’s b/c my driveway slopes down and I wasn’t exactly centered, plus I’m about 5000 feet tall so all the pictures I take are from an unusual perspective lol.
