Right Hand drive owners!
I wanted to see how many jk owners out there are like me and running right hand drive. I'd especially like to see others with U.S. Spec'd right drives like my self, but let's see those European and Australian spec'd rhds too!
I'm curious to see how many others bought the U.S. Spec'd rhds purely for the sake of having one and not because they are delivering for rural mail routes! :-D
Mine is a 2012 sport with 3.6 and 5speed auto and auto Windows/mirrors and 3.21 gears.
My intentions are to build it to resemble a factory rubicon eventually over time as I find the parts because rhd rubicons weren't produced for U.S. Sale. I just recently got a hold of a rock trac and hope to get that in soon.
Did any of the overseas rhds come in standard? I'd be very interested in seeing that!
Pics attached of mine.

You can buy them.anywhere in the us. They are made with the intention of being sold to rural mail carriers who have to but there own work vehicles with a stipend the post office gives them. There should be no reason it wouldn't be available in cali. You don't have to prove that your a mail carrier to buy a tight hand drive, they are perfectly street legal.

Yeah in the us the rhd drops the kbb about 9k which is good cause I was able to afford the 2012 for less than what a regular lhd would have cost me from 2010. So I got the newer motor and the 5spd auto.
