first mod?
 
I was just wondering what is usually the first modification that people make to their jeeps. i am a first time jeep owner, but i have always loved adding mods. to my other vehicles.

First mod should be the Rubimon Special.

Drilled the side view mirrors!

bigbird 11-15-2007 01:49 PM

does anyone know how the water gets in the mirror?

it hurts drilling a brand spankin' new JK, but you'll get over it. I did. :D

bigbird 11-15-2007 02:04 PM

well i took my driver side mirror off at the door, and no sign of green water, so ill leave it for now.

drilled mirrors are usless in my opinon, but i hant had my door on longer than 3 weeks (total) since i bought it 4 months ago, but drilled cupholders, and drilled center concle for water drainage, but the best and more fun mod requires a sawzall! home made stubby bumpers! also you can pull the crappy carpet, i threw mine in the trash(along with my airdamn). i removed my rear swaybar asymbloy and made home made front discos for less than $15 lol


what ever floats ur boat, happy moding lol:yup:

:crazyeyes: i never noticed this when i have wased my jeep, (when i had the doors on)..... hmmm still not a big deal though, she dont stay clean any longer than a week at a time anyways :rotflmao1:

I am over 6' tall so I rotate my rear view mirror upside down to give me more windshield to look out. This costs nothing takes less than a second and it still functions when you flip the night tab. (the other way) Try it!

My Very First Mod (on the way home from the dealer) talked to my Buddy at the tire shop and ordered Mickey Thompson MTZ 33x12.50x17 then the next morning called 4wd.com and ordered RE 2" BB with Monotube shocks, But the tires make it in 2 days before the BB so they went on FIRST!!:yup:
