GOLD, those measurements and items you put in therefor us to see were gold .For those of us who don't own a 2 door yet- it's great to see this kind of detail given to the back and not just the front. I've got all sorts of ideas to build out the wheel wells as cubbies and have a removable lockable box made of aluminum that would fill up the entire space flush with the seats all the way back and to the height of the tub body. Add a tray up above that's closer to the roof for soft storage and I hope to go cross country with my wife and camp out. Thanks for the video's, cheers

Yes, ditch the seat! Build a platform w/12" interior height to the back of the cubby storage. We have top access panels in the front half, the rear access is from the tailgate.. tailgate access means the back is secure. The seat can be modified to drop flat as long as you don't have side airbags, we have a JK soft top. The storage matches the folded seat height. Remove the headrest to fold the seat flat. It's a puffy seat so use a ratchet strap with a piece of ply on top to hold it flat. Makes into a comfortable 74" bed. We do it, works great. Probably be a good idea to actually own your jeep as opposed to leasing.. the dealer wouldnt be too impressed. 😃to

It's just and me wife, so literally the backseats never get used, but I carry surfboards/kiteboards, and I'm debating whether I'm cool with giving up being able to sleep in it. It's not really a money issue, more a which is more fun to drive/off-road.

No one buys a 2 door Jeep for cargo space or carrying passenger's, but you do have options. 1. Take out the rear seat 2. The aftermarket offers cargo racks We bought a 2 door JL because our kids are grown and its our time now. Throw a suitcase in the back with some groceries and a cooler, camping gear on the rack, extra fuel in the can that attaches near the spare tire and we're gone.

@drivenmad2089 3 жыл бұрын

On the website you can opt for both the Alpine and the internal bin. The rear space looks to be about th same as the 2 door hatchback diesel Golf I had a few years ago. It was a 2013. I loved packing it with groceries and traveling with it. I'm subscribed!

Thanks for discussing sleeping in the two door. I realized after I bought mine that this was a problem. I like my two door for its small size and agility, but after much searching on how to sleep in it I should have spent the bucks and gotten the 4-door. I must stretch out flat when sleeping because of back pain and one company makes fitted pads for the JKU for sleeping. Otherwise the best solution is to push front passenger seat forward and recline like you did but place your head at the driver side tailgate corner, fill the footwell gap with a cooler or soft clothes or blankets and you can stretch out. Works in a pinch.

After having our 2015 2 door for 7 yrs continually tweeking it we finally got it right after figuring out how to flatten the passenger seat. Yes it can be done! If you're tall you need to address adequate storage, sleeping headroom and sleeping length. Once you solved those, you'll be a happy camper. 😉

@H.pylori Жыл бұрын

@@pujabelgian Would you mind sharing how to flatted the front pass enter seat. In my 2016 JK the seat back only folds forward half way then tilts towards the dashboard. It only goes backwards a few degrees. My last resort is to remove the front passenger seat entirely and stuff the space with storage boxes to the level of the rear of the Jeep. Then I could fully stretch out my 5'9" frame. There would be room on the driver side to store equipment and supplies. I thought about platforms but then I would not be able to sit up. Thanks for your input.

So it's doable, depending on how much work you want to commit to storing it. But with hardtop on and everything, not without disassembling the bike a little more.

If I had it to do again, I would opt for the 4-door. But I wanted to save money and got the two door Wrangler. I have been trying to figure out how to sleep in it at 5'9" and have looked at many videos and forums to no avail. Finally one video suggested sleeping flat by moving the front passenger seat all the way forward and placing a board or small cooler in the foot well and sleeping diagonally with the head at the driver side tail gait corner. It will work, but you have to put some gear outside. So I bought a cargo rack and at night lash everything taken out of the jeep to the cargo rack. The other thing is to remove the front passenger seat, seat back, and place a plywood board across the footwell from the rear to the front seat bottom and you have plenty of room and avoid having to mess with the airbag system, and you do not have to slepp diagonally.
