I'd like to get a few opinions from those of you who have a few more years of this hobby under your belt. I'm trying to determine what I should be looking into next as upgrades for my heep.
I've got a 98 with the 4.0, and here's what I've done so far:
Engine:
-99 intake
-bored TB
-APN header
-2.5" cat and catback
Drivetrain:
-RE hack'n'tap, w/XJ front shaft
-4.10 gears
-D44 rear w/ZJ discs
-ZJ tie rod
-31x10.50 BFG AT's
Suspension:
-JKS QD's, no rear sway bar
-3" Coils
-2" AAL w/1" shackle
Armor, etc:
-Factory gas, t-case, (and soon front) skids
-Tow hooks front and rear
So that's that. I'm thinking I'd probably look into a lunchbox locker for the front, but then not sure if I should look into sliders, bumpers, steering, OBA, control arms, the list goes on and on. I'd probably be wheeling most at Rausch Creek, which has it's fair share of rocks, using it as a misc. hunting and fishing vehicle, but it's also my DD, so I've got to keep that in mind as well. I know everybody's opinion differs, but I'd like to hear some of them. Thanks in advance
