- Lift either 2.5" up to 4"
- ARB lockers, compressor and tank
- Daystar switch panel for the locker switches
- Daystar dash tray
- AEV snorkel
- Upgraded steering dampner
- Terraflex disconnects
- Rugged Ridge Seat covers
- Rugged Risdge grab handles front and rear and centre
- Dodge Nitro Amp to sort out the soundbar speaker isses
- Jet performance chip
- Procomp 7005 alloy black rims
- Pro comp 35" Xtreeme mud terrains
- black entry guards
- GME UHF CB
- Better recovery hooks for the front
- Rear tail gate stop
- Mopar slush mats
- Mopar black fuel door
- Black tail lamp guards
- IPF spotties
- 4dr rock rails
- AEV bonnet

Just a small list but the snorkel, tyres, lift are my priority but I want it all. Coming from a Grand which has sweet FA in the aftermarket parts area the JK is a bloody overload.

JTO
Your list is all WANTS mate...just depens how much $$$$ youlle NEED for it

Funnily enough, your list is quite exhaustive, but you haven't even included a front bar in there - you'll need that to mount spotties / UHF aerial / recovery points. Definitely one of my priorities
not always!!!!!!!!

Come on, please not another bash thread! pretty please. I know that the JK is awsome as it is but the extra bits are because I can and I couldnt with the WH (financial controller dependant!)

All up the price is in the $8000 mark which I think is not too bad considering it will end up doing everything I want it too offroad and be great to ride in and look at. I was going to go the pink respray but the red will fade over time!lol

Also I have the MOPAR front and rear bars and these will be adequate with my current driving skill and are fine for the IPF spotties mount. The CB I was looking at installing on the rear wheel carrier.
