2024 Two Door Jeep JL Wrangler in Manual Transmission for your Tinder Profile

[@fabiosalerno1490]

Manual Foreverrrr!!!!💪🏻🚜🔥😜

[@kevincawley2458]

I have a 2024 two door Willys in the same color with a manual LOVE IT

[@EPIC-4WD]

2 doors with the manual trans is pure Jeep. We love it. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@michaelplaxico]

How does the manual feel? Do your knuckles bump your hazards/temperature controls when shifting into first, third, and fifth? (I *think* those are the gears nearest the hazards/temperature controls.)

[@kristopherwilliams1719]

I just bought the 2 door JL Rubicon with a stick a month ago in the Earl Gray. I've named it "Tea Bag". I got the Kraken in the mail last week, and will be installing it this weekend.

[@EPIC-4WD]

The Kraken will love to be part of your tea bag situation. Nice. Cheers from the team at EPIC and thank you for your support!

[@JP4XOR]

You should get the customer to splurge for an aftermarket clutch/Flywheel. It absolutely is the best mod for a 6speed JL

[@TheEPICBeardedGinger]

I have researched a lot on that since, even considered a manual for my next Jeep

[@regmartin688]

Awesome Jeep I have 2019 JL punk' orange 2 door manual trans with Mopar lift 35" tires just love it .

[@robkoturbash7218]

You guys should make a conversion for a 392 in front of the manual. Nothing on the market afaik.

[@Steven-iy4oh]

@@robkoturbash7218I want to say Dakota Customs offers the conversion. It’s something I want to consider for my 23 JLR at some point, but will be years down the road.

[@johndeveaux7670]

I got a 2023 Gladiator manual. Love it.

[@EPIC-4WD]

We had a 2021 Gladiator in a Manual and around town and wheeling it was fun, but loaded up doing mountain passes it was non-stop shifting down/up/down/up. The gear ratios in the manual are not optimal for a loaded JT... and we had a re-gear to 4.88 on 37s. Maybe 5.13s would be a better idea in a loaded JT situation. Who knows. We rarely see them. However, this 2 door manual is a blast to drive!

[@LukeEdward]

ME TOO! Rubicon Gladiator, here. Actively seeked for a manual and my unwanted orphan came up. Grabbed it two days later.

[@johndeveaux7670]

Yup I definitely gotta regear. Drive 95% of time on highway with 35” tires. 4:56 ratio should work. I hope.

[@WampaJT]

Loved my 04 TJ Rubi with a 5spd manual, even my 2011 JKU Rubi with the 6speed was amazing, but unfortunately I had to give it up because of a sciatica diagnosis that turned out to be cancer. Traded in my well used perfectly modified JKUR for a JTR auto still miss the manual some days. I do agree something about a 2 door jeep with a manual especially in the summer.

[@creekerjeeper3879]

Ginger’s narrative is hilarious as always.

[@EPIC-4WD]

Thanks for watching and commenting. We appreciate you. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@russellmiller8332]

I can remember my first vehicle in the late sixties was manual or three on the tree shifter. My current Jeep is a 2003 Wrangler 5 speed manual.

[@EPIC-4WD]

Nice! Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@WolfOverland]

More 2 dudes one wrench 🔧 Those new black rino rims are 🔥

[@EPIC-4WD]

Thanks bud! We're planning some more podcasts in July! Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@CharlieO77]

My wife heard you now she doesn’t want me to get a two door. Thanks.

[@brianfisher3991]

Love my 2 door .

[@EPIC-4WD]

We rarely see 2 door JLs, but this one in a manual is a blast to drive! Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@pillowpxnts]

I love my 2021 2 door JL more than any other vehicle I have owned. Same color as this Jeep, 37s, WARN winch, lots of goodies from Motobilt, and about 4 ½ inches of lift from my Rock Krawler kit. Started out as a Sport S.

[@Trail429]

Quite possible perfect platform and build.

[@EPIC-4WD]

Very possible. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@jackofalltradesmasterofnon5765]

I custom ordered my JL back in 18 when they first came out and got the 2 door, 6 speed manual. At the time of order, they were about a month away from starting the 2 door production. Still absolutely love it to this day. Only downside (initially) was the clutch recall problem that they could never seem to fix. No big deal I told myself, when the clutch goes, I'll just get an aftermarket option. About 8 months ago, they pushed out a fix and my 5 year old jeep now has a complete new clutch paid for by jeep. Guess I'll have to wait a little longer for that aftermarket option. Though seeing this one has really got me wanting 37's lol

[@WreckedBrewery]

I have a '24 rubicon 4 door in the manual and it is such a fun vehicle to drive on and off road.

[@IanNubbit]

22 6MT JT and 23 6MT JL in the driveway, both Sports with less then 1k in options. Manual windows, trans, locks, and soft tops, it's the life

[@Steven-iy4oh]

I’ve had 2 JLR’s with the 6 Speed. First one was a 21 with 4.10’s running 35s and the current is a 23 with factory 4.88s running 37s. If you have the option and want a manual, get it from the factory with 4.88s (best bang for the buck factory option). 4.10s are okay if you never intend to upgrade to larger tires, 35s sucked in my opinion.

[@someoneqc]

Great video and sweet ride. . I placed an order this morning for a 2025 Willys 2 doors manual ! Color ‘41 It will be my first JEEP, looking forward to driving it. Cheers from up north Quebec.

[@blakemarchand6650]

Siiiiick I wanna see more manuals

[@EPIC-4WD]

Agreed! Thanks for watching and cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@chuckcribbs3398]

I own a manual Rubicon Gladiator. Been very happy with it. 66k miles.

[@EPIC-4WD]

Awesome! We've had a manual Gladiator a few jeeps ago. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@jeffreybetts8014]

I have a 2021 , but it’s an automatic , I have a lot of metalcloak stuff also, still building, happy to see you guys building a 2 dr. Great video thanks.

[@EPIC-4WD]

Thanks for watching and following along. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@Allen_Roby]

Have a 2021 Wrangler Islander 2 door 6 speed with the white top. It’s a great Jeep and very unique.

[@EPIC-4WD]

Nice Jeep! Thanks for watching. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@Thexkidd]

Man, there’s some good hard trails in Ontario.

[@LadyC4000]

I have a 24 two door automatic and I love it.

[@EPIC-4WD]

Nice! 2 doors are little rockets! Fun to drive. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@manueledigioseffo2626]

Awesome jeep! Here in Italy i drive a jeep jk ‘14 2 doors with manual transmission and 2.8 crd diesel engine. 4.10 gears and 33” tires. Perfect combo. Greetings from Italy!

[@davesnotheretv]

I love my 2 door manual JK.

[@EPIC-4WD]

2 Doors for the WIN! Pure Jeep experience. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@Iam_Yu627]

Nice build. In addition to what you've done, I installed flush tail lights. No more worries about trees and the like.

[@officialmallcrawler]

The new Black Rhino wheels look good on a two door.

[@dominionn09]

I'm 51. My kids are grown accept for the last one at 16yo, but he'll be driving soon. I'm looking at getting a 2 door jeep with a stick. Also considering a 2 door bronco.

[@MatthewTafoya]

Great Build on the OG JEEP-SIZED JEEP... I would recommend adding a front bumper grill guard hoop. It actually saved my Jeep and me during a trip in Colorado. I deer darted out from the trees and I hit it almost at highway speed. Saw the deer fly forward and to the side. That grill guard did exactly that. NO damage to the grill or headligjts 🙏 but the off-road light that are mounted on the bumper took a beating 😢 they got bent up pretty bad. There was deer hair all over the front in that center guarded area of the grill. It was a direct center hit... I think the guard kept the deer from flying over the hood 🤔 GET ONE THEY WORK.

[@DiveBC]

Love my 2024 2 door manual high vilocity yellow willys. I too have found the clutch to feel strange. It is ok but it looks like the aftermarket clutch and flywheel kits solve the problem with adding more weight to the flywheel. Love to see a two door on the channel. Maybe one I'm ready I'll hope across bc ferries and have a lift installed. Thanks for the videos

[@ekuryluk]

These are a rarity. My daughter owns a Gecko Green manual 2021 2-door Wrangler Sport, one 1 of 8 JLs made like that.

[@EPIC-4WD]

Awesome! Love the Gecko! Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@TJWinter1221]

A Jeep girl? Now THAT'S a rarity! 😆

[@campfirestories744]

Wow! Very cool

[@jonathanchisholm3319]

No its not lol where have you been😂​@@TJWinter1221

[@lotlizzard2209]

Have a 2 door stick willys ordered for a month now. Still on restriction because of the stick. Cant believe that's considered a special feature now.

[@someoneqc]

Wow really. Ordered mine this morning. Do you have it now ?

[@UnderAchievrLP]

I love my sport s diesel gladiator but gawd wish it was a manual. Gotta do a Kraken!

[@EPIC-4WD]

Krakens are now shipping daily! The Sport S Gladiator EcoDiesel is a great platform! Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@randalloakes344]

i love my 2 door manuel 2018 jl with a soft top

[@Gretchen_Trouble]

Im drooling over this build 🤤

[@EPIC-4WD]

You need a 2 door Jeep as well? Good idea! Ha Ha! A 2 Door Jeep and a Gladiator. That's the dream.

[@Gretchen_Trouble]

@@EPIC-4WD Don't tempt me with a good time.

[@libertystuffnthingsreviews829]

I was 98% going to order one, but opted to get a 2 door Xtreme Recon. Other than springs that do NOT hold a winch, it is good thus far.

[@Vex_Offroad]

Nearly bought that identical jeep in 2018. I had a manual tj at the time and was determined to get an automatic so ended up with a hard rock rubicon jk 2 door.

[@UnwindingRoads]

Sign me up for an ecodiesel manual!!! Although this 2 door is pretty sweet!

[@Casey250]

I have no idea what swiping right means but if it gets me that Jeep, I'm down.

[@EPIC-4WD]

I'm pretty sure you swiped right last night. Cheers sir!

[@silverlover5817]

Thanks for the video. I'm planning to order the 2025 Wrangler Sport 2 door with manual transmission later on this year when it's available for order in Canada.

[@DUNEATV]

Awesome Jeep!

[@EPIC-4WD]

Thanks for watching! We appreciate you. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@scottsymons6152]

You can get the 2-door Rubicon with the manual 6-speed AND 4.88 gears. Do you feel like that would work really well with 35's or 37's tires?

[@TheEPICBeardedGinger]

That would work great for both but with this transmission and 37s I personally may consider 5.13s

[@raymondhoho]

Love this one!

[@overlandingfamily]

Love the build!! I want it!

[@EPIC-4WD]

You and us both. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@calvinbailey327]

Can you shoot over a link for the foldable license plate?? Looking to get this bumper

[@jlr_adventurer]

That’s perfect, I have a Rubi 2 door and that’s exactly what I want, I got a question … did you change the front driveshaft with that lift kit?

[@rodgood]

Hated my JL 2 door Manual Rubicon , compared to my 03 Rubicon. It had no torque and a light weight flywheel and junk clutch . There is a reason they are on recall 3 with only band aid fixes . Good news they look good and with 5:13 gears are ok on the highway .

[@mastermoarman]

I have a 24 manual 2 door. Wish it was a ecodiesle

[@EPIC-4WD]

Yeah, a manual with the EcoDiesel would be the dream! Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@mastermoarman]

​@@EPIC-4WD I have seen you guys do a few engine swaps. Do you think you could do it?

[@brianflynn5491]

Great video, Ty. Got a question I’m thinking about putting a 460 in my jk, do you think it will be too much for a two door rubicon

[@carlosbido4611]

3.6 is perfect as long as you regear. That rig needs 5:13 gearing on those 37s.

[@EPIC-4WD]

Re-gear will be coming soon we're sure ;-) Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@GisonLee]

What brand bumpers did you install?

[@GIGrandpa]

I had to explain all the single women I was friends with back when I was on Facebook and tried to explain to the Colonel. It wasn't me. It was my Jeep 😂

[@zachwick5362]

What rock sliders were you going with just curious. Great build as always cheers

[@EPIC-4WD]

We ordered the Rock Hard 4x4 angled down set. We've have clients battle test them on the Rubicon and other gnarly places and they hold up well. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@zachwick5362]

Very nice choice, Sir! Thank you for the feedback and info 🍻

[@eat.sleep.wheel21]

Need one in Sarge Green

[@EPIC-4WD]

A 2 door in Sarge green would be the bomb. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@jlr_adventurer]

Base lift kit or st3 sport lift kit ?

[@strix9013]

Have a 2021 two door rubicon on 37's with a 2.5" lift. Not manual though. I haven't regeared, is this one also stock gearing?

[@camaroboi13]

How are you guys getting around the driveline vibrations on the 24s with the empty FAD box?

[@franklinromine8600]

What offset are the Black Rhino Wheels in Video?

[@briankelley616]

Hey Ginger, if you tell your wife it's good for the channel maybe she'll let you order one. 😁

[@EPIC-4WD]

Good advice! Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@outsidepnw5381]

I had a manual JK 2 door and upgraded to a manual JL 4 door 🙃

[@EPIC-4WD]

Nice! How do you find the manual trans gear ratios? Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@outsidepnw5381]

Works perfect with 35s. I can use the 6th gear which wasn't possible with the JK. Regearing might be necessary for 37s. But be aware that there's a clutch recall. The clutch blew up on a lot of Jeeps starting with the 2018 models probably all the way up to the 2023 Jeeps. Jeep has finally a fix for it and I will get a new clutch/transmission combo at some point. Unfortunately this will be my 3rd clutch/transmission then since my 21 Jeep was one of the Jeeps where the clutch exploded. And if I say 'exploded' I mean EXPLODED. I luckily carried a fire extinguisher and was able to put the fire out. The clutch wheel just smashed through the housing.. 😂

[@scottbott8525]

You didn't re gear it?

[@Sepulkrum]

Nice

[@chickenlight]

🤷🏻‍♂️ Most of the JLs in my part of Onterrible are 2-door manuals, including my Sport Willys. Dunno why everyone in BC wants a square minivan...

[@TheEPICBeardedGinger]

Obviously cause they can fit more “Overland” trinkets in them 😂

[@chickenlight]

​@@TheEPICBeardedGinger I suppose... Overlanding isn't that big here; it's all mudding and dirt trails. We're also too far south for rock crawling where I am.

[@Papo9015Quiles]

The epic jersey would be number 69😅😂❤

[@EPIC-4WD]

Is there any other number?

[@brandonzimmerman1667]

You want a 2 door, just order from factory. Sure you may have to wait, but you will have one

[@adrianw3985]

Damn... the real OG Jeep. Some would argue that this is they way God and John Moses Browning would make a Jeep. Pretty lovely thing. I will stick with my Gladiator. It does most all the things I need.

[@EPIC-4WD]

Gladiators are great for many things... Going sideways with a big smile on your face isn't one of them (unless you have a Hemi conversion). Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@ericparisien3051]

watch out out for the clutch catching on fire, check the Jeep recall and their stupid "fix". I bought a 2021 manual and resold it within a month after reading the horror stories. I bought a 2024 Sahara and love it.

[@EPIC-4WD]

We've had a JT manual trans which we switched out to an EcoDiesel with the auto. Both were fun. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

I got a New 2024 Jeep Wrangler Rubi 4 Door with a manual...

Jeep just stopped talking orders on the manual shift wrangler because of all the clutch problems go figure Mopar!

[@chrismarinock520]

No regear? That things gonna be a dog.

[@coloradomallcrawlers]

Yeah, those stock sliders are junk. Ask me how I know. I have 6 speed JL, but Jeep needs to put some more effort into their modern manual.

[@EPIC-4WD]

Agreed. Centerforce makes some kits that we'd like to try. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@shanefoster6018]

Jeep should just hire epic or give them all the jeeps they want. However, they want them need to end it with you always build a toyota to be like a jeep still wont make it a #JEEP #MOPAR

[@Railfan90]

I got a ‘22 2 door sport with manual everything…. Cause why pay extra for stuff you’re just ripping off anyways 🤣

[@EPIC-4WD]

Good plan. Keep it light on features and a more management starting cost. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@johnphillipsjr7238]

It’s a manual not a stick shift🤦‍♂️🤡🥴
