IMHO good tyres, suitable to your application.

Either that or a lift of some description.

First thing should be a cargo barrier to protect the family. Then lift, return to centre steering stabilizer[ great product], adjustable track bar, if no quadradrive then a front air locker, dual batteries, then bullbar, then winch, adjustble control arms, then more lift, then supernerfs,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, then.......blah.............blah.............blah. .............the list just keeps going!

Lexx - you need to think about what you will be doing with the JGC - offroad, tow rig, touring, family mover, beachwork etc

From there you can work out where to start.
