Go buy a 40" tire

Haha just kidding.

Well if you off-road and want to buy a winch eventually, you could do the stock bumper winch plate mod and buy an engo 9000lb winch for well under $500. Or buy the rough country stubby hybrid bumper 189.95 shipped and an engo 9000lb winch for right about exactly $500 total. I did that combo last week after selling my smittybilt bumper and xrc8 winch for $475

New front bumper.


Keep in mind if your looking at the PS BFH front bumper, your going to be cutting on the front frame.

Final goal is to have a Badass jku that I can take offroad and never get stuck. I don't wanna go bigger tires I like the 35's I also like the lift on there aev 3.5" ds SC. I won't b doing much offroading maybe once a year. That might change once I finally end up hitting the trails tho I can imagine it gets addicting. I also wanna get sum steel fender flares and steel bumpers plastic bumpers is killing me.

Sway bar link disconnects and maybe some windshield running lights. Your jeep looks pretty nice.
