@@danrockwell1883 those of us who pour more money into our jeeps and take them off road, we need the functionality of those more costly parts vs. what looks good at the local Starbucks on meet night. Anyone can buy stuff from wish to make anything look good at the mall. different strokes for different folks. That being said, you should start off your videos with " first 5 mods for a non off road Jeep" as you may get some that copy your opinion on mods and find they wasted their money if the choose to hit trails that are harder than your average fire road. everyone buys their vehicles for a different purpose. At least you didn't put an angry grill on it with rubber ducks in the dashboard. lol keep on doing what you do, everyone has their path in life.

If it's your first 4x4 and you plan to off road, add heavy duty tire carrier and a way to carry fuel outside. Learn to use it before you start lifting. Join a 4x4 club or find friends to 4 wheel with, don't go alone. Buy some recovery equipment. Drive it until tires are about half gone, by then your experience level will be much better. I like the suggestion to improve the rocker guards, stock ones aren't much good for protection.

Yeah if you plan on doing off roading, don’t do what I do lol mine is mostly for looks. I have more clearance which is great but ultimately it’s built for the road and light trails for camping/hunting.

@wesbarcus3761 2 жыл бұрын

@@danrockwell1883 camping and hunting can get you into rain, snow, tight roads. The mods done on your jeep are fine for the unexpected. Plus, this ain't your first rodeo, that's why your mods fit your needs. Newbees on the other hand need a little more info before they do tires, lifts, etc. Aftermarket mods on a brand new jeep can void warranty, gas carried inside behind the seat can cause headaches.

Got 2 inch lift, 35" on my Rubicon, and I love the Jeep Modular steel bumber (was a great option). Winch is a MUST (was my FIRST) and added a brush guard that protects teh winch a bit more. AS for Running boards, I'd get the ones that double as rock rails as well. Having said that, my jeep (a '21 JL Rubicon unlimited hybrid (4xe) was able to do Hell's Revenge in Moab stock! (THink the electric engine helped a lot!) but the 35" tires and lift make it so rock rails and underrside armor don't scrape as much! NIce Jeep! I'd add a winch to it :) Maybe some extra lights?

Those cheap ass lift kits can make it drive like trash and can be dangerous. Death wobble is a common occurrence as well as brake lines not being long enough. They give relocation brakes but the lines get stretched tight like a rubber band damaging the inner liner and not allowing the caliper to release or total loss of brakes. There are companies that make extended lines. It’s not a race car so be cautious of taking a hard turn with some speed. You may lose control or worse the rear collapse off the lift blocks.

I did in fact have death wobble at times lol but it did drive really smooth. This lift is $3500
