Like the title says, list the one mod you would change if you had the chance to do it again.

...and go...

I would have skipped the 35s and 2.5" lift and hone straight to the 3.5" long arm and 37s

I would love more lift, but I'm already at the limit before it gets expensive.

Woulda shoulda gone with LCA's that utilize a johnny/flex joint in stead of the WP fixed length for 3" lift with standard poly bushings. Changing them out for RK.

Shoulda saved a little more for the coil lift vs spacer lift that I have.

I should not have wasted the money on windshield lights...... Pointless for GA trails.

Shoulda locked the rear diff as one of the first mods.

Wouldn't have been a cheap ass and paid the extra money and bought jks quick discos instead of the rough country ones I bought. Only went cheap because I put jks on my xj a week before I sold it and didn't want to pay $140 twice in a month ( and either did my wife) but regret it now.
