Well thought it was time to start a build thread after starting to mod the rubicon slowly.

Picked her up mid october with 600 miles, and now at 2300....just so much fun to drive

about a week or 2 later I ordered a dynomax rock crawler exhaust, was going to go with the one that exits right after the muffler but wasnt sure if it would pass in pa, will try and get a video of the sound of this if i can borrow a good camera, or get a gopro

this past weekend I took the 101 Class at Rausch Creek and learned a lot, deff more confident of myself for next time

Last night I installed the Volant Snorkel with CAI, found a good deal on it as well, a lot less than most vendors and they actually had the 2012 kit...only have one pic so far, also I can tell you that the abs they use is very strong, scoop section fell off on my way to work, and took a good ride off the side of the highway onto an exit ramp and had some good scratches but made out ok, grill is bent up however

Also finally got a chance to put on my jk stickers

well next up im thinking wheels and tires and a lift, just not sure how much i will need/ want. thinking about going with the teraflex 2.5" coil lift with shocks.....i dont plan on going over 35s since this is my daily

also been trying to figure out what bumper/winch setup i would like as well, just so many options its so hard to make up my mind on anything

also should be ordering new headlights soon, just cant decide on truck-lite and get a deal with duallys or go with jwspeaker?
