Ok, I think this can help a lot of us not waste time and/or money.

What did you do to your Rig that you wish you didn't do or had to take off or want to take off asap?

Thanks for Your Help

Teraflex Leveling Kit: Replaced it with a 2.5" coil lift after only 6 months

33s: I went with 295/70r17 Toyos which are 'big' 33s, but they weigh more than most 35" tires. Shoulda just gone with 35's. But now I plan on skipping that step and going straight to 37's once everything is built right (a few years from now)...

It was a waste of time disabling the horn honk on lock feature, my remote start stopped working. I reversed it in a day.

I listened to all the people who post this comment and went straight to 35's. Thanks to all who mentioned this.
I would have bought my pj rocker guards new instead of scratch and dent. I think the install would have been easier.

I should of went with a stubby front bumper instead the AEV...

I should have went with 37s instead of 35s..

I should have bought a rubicon...

I should have never wasted money on my IPF lights(LEDs are the way to go)

I should have bought a better lift. My RC 2.5" only netted 1.25" lift......

I regret the rugged ridge hi-lift tailgate carrier. It hits my tire carrier mount on my custom rear bumper and will keep my roof rack from being easy to build.

I cant keep it from raddling with the lift mounted.
I dont know if I was just having a bad day or what but it seemed tricky to install as well.

Dont get me wrong its a very sturdy well built product but I think it'll be comming off sometime in the future.
