Default poll: next mod?!?!

so i'm thinking about my next mod and i'm having a hard time with what i should go with, so why not throw a poll up.

i had myself talked into a set of the half doors, but now after like a week of thinking about it, i don't know if that's what i really want.

AARRRGGGG..... i hate decisions.

I voted gears all the way. Make it drive right, then make it pretty.

Go with 5.13 gearing. If you have a Dana 30 up front, it's as deep as you can go anyway.

I just did it and it's not cheap AND you can't really see what you spent your money on, but you'll have a usuable Jeep on the highway. I did put an ARB differential cover on just to remind me of what I spent my money on...

wow, how many miles? I am about to get another set of 35s, and I went with the MTR K's. New tires are kind of a no brainer, get the gears too if you can.

I got the tires used off of a buddy, but I have put a shit ton of miles on them. the only thing about the tires is they're still on back order for another month the last time I checked.
