It depends on how much and what kind of wheeling you do. Maybe some aux lights, diff covers, evap skid, oil pan skid,rock rails..ect

If you are in the beginning stages of your build start accumulating parts. Driveshaft, Driving Lights, or put the cash to work on some cheap modiciations https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/show...should-be-done

No. No spacers thanks for the reminders. That's why this is the greatest forum. And I will prolly go with the under carriage protection. Thanks

IMO I would not waste the money on and evpo skid. Just relocated it like most people. There are a few diy on here to show you where and how to move. If it was me I would spend the money on rocker rails or a lift.

are you regearing or putting on bigger tires? procal is handy, but if its first mods, work on armoring up or getting bumpers or tire carrier or even just save the money to do something like new tires or skids
