First off do everthing yourself , second buy used when you can and fix it up

200 tire carrier with paint flaking off and some dents is a whole lot cheaper then 800 for the same thing

The only time I buy new is when nobody has it

I've got a money tree out back! but in all seriousness, hard work and save money when you can. JEEP Just Empty Every Pocket. There is a reason for that label.

Give it time. If mods are important then the longer you have your Jeep the more important mods get. When they are real important you become comfortably numb to the cost.

Most folks i know have more than enough funds for their mods,because this is their only hobby.So for me i have multi-hobbies,so mods have to be planned out
