Just ordered my 2011 black ops
New to jeep...bring it on, I know you are are gonna give me grief. Love the wheels...obviously don't care about the decals. Don't even play video games. After you kill me for wasting my money help me decide what to do first. Want to off road, lift kit suggestions please!

It would be nice if the Black OPS included GPS, CB Radio, Off-Road Bumpers and Swing out Carrier, etc ...

Gotta ask ... is Black OPS package an additional cost on top of standard Rubicon? how much extra? As far as I can tell it a Rubi with some Mountain parts swapped on.

Its slightly more. Mineral grey wheels, 32" tires, blackout exterior, mopar tail light guards and thats about it. Standard Rubi otherwise from what I have been able to find out. Still a nice ride though.
Enjoy, your new JEEP!

Yeah its the mountain wheels, 3 decals on quarter panels, black fuel door filler, black tail lamp guards, black matte hood. The only thing of substance are the wheels. I don't have my order sheet on me, but it was like $700. I was originally getting a black sahara and after market aev pintlers. The money I was gonna spend on wheels and tires covers the difference from bumping up to a rubicon. So I figure I'll borrow the same amount of money get dark wheels and a rubi as opposed to a sahara.

I should have said the first thing I AM doing is removing the decals. I teach high school and had my students begging for them. I'll give them away to best grade on midterms or something. Don't like that it doesn't have rubicon decal. I have budgeted about $3000 for after market as soon as I take delivery. I really have no idea where to start on a lift. Was looking at the aev nth degree 3.5". Am I going for too much out of the gate? Never been off roading before. Looking to start slow, have a feeling I might get obsessed. I guess I should start posting on threads that discuss lifts. I can't wait to hit my first trail!!!!
Personally, I prefer the OME 2" HD lift. It is a GREAT lift, and much better ride than stock suspension. Any questions just PM me

Make sure you wait 6 months before you remove the decals so the paint has a chance to cure. Had friends take off decals when they 1st got their jks and now they have paint blemishes where the decals used to be. Ive also got friends who took it off right when they took delivery and they came off without issue. So to be on the safe side an wait, nothing worse then screwin up a new 30k rig. Good Luck with her!
