So far I have

9k winch, 8" procomp lights, K&N, AEV Snorkel
5.13 F/R W/ ARBs, (F) is sleeved and gusseted w/ 30 spline RCV shaft, (R) has 35 spline Chromoly shaft
4" Teraflex Long arm w/ F&R driveshafts, Spod, HD ARB compressor and Poison Spyder hood louver

All totals to about $12,000 and I know I should get the TF Big Brake ($850ish), my tires and rims are about $2,700, and smittybilt front, rear, and side is about $1,570 which takes my bill to $17,120... trying to keep it under $20K... any suggestions?

EDIT: Im running 37" MTRs

 

So are you trying to figure out how to spend another roughly $3000 on your Jeep?

 

pretty much.. where is it goin to do the most good? steering brace? high steer kit? trail dash? I wanted a supercharger but I think that money can be put in other places.... and then one day add the SC and long tube headers or do I even need a spare tire? I could save a lot of money cause I wouldn't need a tire carrier either just a regular rear bumper.... I don't wheel but every now and then and I have yet to pop a tire. so if I adjust that it would get me almost an extra grand, save weight, improve visibility...... and I could squeeze out some just enough for the supercharger.

 

I would say maybe some skid plates would be in order. Is there anything you feel like your missing when your of the trail?

 

I would say its about time you spent some money on a roll cage.

 

yes, you need a spare tire.

you can save some money by doing the black magic brake kit rather than the big buck TF Big Brake kit. Google black magic brakes. I have run them in the front since I put on 37's and they stop great.


Look at the Synergy cage, it should be first on anyone's list that actually wheels their jeep.

 

The answers really depend on how you plan to use your jeep.

What kind of off-roading will you do, and with what frequency?

How much on road driving will you be doing, what distances, and at what speeds?

What kind of loads will you be carrying, and will you be towing a trailer?

 

I at most will be driving 50 miles a day to and from work on the highway. I been thinking about a Rollcage but I don't really have the need for one with the places I go yet and I stay on the modest trails for now at moab and rubicon for now, mainly enjoying the view. and I need an evap skid plate for sure. I don't do really difficult trails the Axles are to increase durability the long arm for the ride and the lockers just in case. I admit my jeep is probably over built (is there such a thing? ). Im going to continue slowly building it but I can do a -/+$600 part every month once I get home from afghanistanso im trying to get the bit purchases done now. With 37s though do I need to brace the sector shaft or is that for bigger tires and hyd assist mainly? another thing anywhere running rusty's axle back exhaust? if so how do you like it?

 

Any one running the Rough Country hybrid stubby bumper for $190? and did I read the best top reviews right about it being able to hold my 37" tire at $300? I mean both of those seem functional and at a great price and would increase the money I have for the supercharger or the rubicrawler.... Or just stick with my plans for the Smittybilt SRC stinger front bumper and sliders and the XRC rear tirecarrier?

 

Well if the trails you are doing are moderate and the lockers are just in case, then why would you need a RubiCrawler? You keep mentioning supercharging so i'm thinking that's where your heart is at. Why not just spend the money on supercharging it?
