My build date was 1/23/07. All the new JKs on the dealer lots around here are missing them. I told the dealers and they are ordering a bunch of them. I have to get the part# tomorrow for everybody because the parts guys don't have it listed. It's only in the Service computer schematics. I can also try to scan the printout for everyone to bring in to their dealer service.

It would be greatly appreciated if you could do that. I for one was sure missing good anchor points this weekend.
I don't think anyone wants to bastardise their new wheels with makeshift stuff,or get undo damages.

superboo

you didn't happen to get part numbers, did you? and thanks for finding/posting this, i'm moving to another part of the country soon and would rather get all of these little things figured out before i ship my jeep.

edit: nevermind @ part numbers, i just read the rest of the posts thanks again.

Same here, i would like to see some also.

I found on my list of options "Cargo Tie-Down Loops" Is that what is being referred to here?

I thought these where them doinky-assed elastic garter straps that are supposedly for the rear window roll up. If not, i want the stupid things! I could have used them a few weeks ago.

Everyone is waiting for the pics and part#s and I will get them soon. Pics of the slots were the tiedowns should be will be posted tonight. As for the tiedown pics and the part#s, you'll have to be patient.
My service manager called me today, as well as the Chrysler Engineering Dept.
They took my Rubi Unlim to run tests for a while to see what they can do regarding the Power-steering overheating. They are preparing for a recall after they engineer a cooler for the system.
As far as the Tiedowns, there is no part#... I don't know how my service manager got them, but he says he knows some insiders at Jeep Engineering. I believe him, as I have never seen anybody get service like I'm getting!
If they decide to recall for the tiedowns, you'll all be the first to know...
They are also discussing what to do about the missing U-Connect in my jeep, as well as the underhood light.
I'm not happy with the 'Forget & Omit' attitude Jeep has been building these JKs with.... Now, I'm not suing, so don't get all judgemental or call me names. But I believe we paid for things that are expected with the Jeep Wrangler, "The most capable off-road vehicle ever built...", so we should have them. I don't really care about the U-Connect, so I'm not pushing them on that topic. They just felt they wanted to talk with me and see what I thought.
Very Cool!
Thanks for your patience, You'll soon get the info....

my sales manager is eager for a part#/pictures. so i'm amongst those awaiting your next post. also, who did you talk to about an underhood light and how did you approach it? did you mention the footwell light? i'd like these items as well and nothing i've done so far has proved fruitful aside from getting them to give me the hood insulation.

Still no part#, as my dealer's Service Manager is suddenly playing dumb. He doesn't want to put himself in a compromising situation, as he put it.
The ones he gave me didn't fit in the slots, as it seems they were from another vehicle. He had me speak with his Chrysler Rep., so we'll see if that gets anything done.
The worst part of all this is that they took my Rubi Unlim and gave me a Chrysler Aspen to drive... Now my wife wants the glorified station wagon.
I like to call it something else:
SUV+Truck= SUCK
I'll keep you posted, as long as I don't go crazy..........
