Default What TO DO NEXT!

So I recently decided to make some changes and update some things.

I have a 2013 JKUR, with 37" nitto trail, PS Crusher flares all around, PS rock Brawlers, OR-Fab Rear, JCR Stinger front, 9.5 CTI , AEV Pintlers, Truck Lite Head Lites, Teraflex Tire Carrier, AEV Rear Corners, AEV Pro Cal
I am doing Ten Factory front/rear axel shafts, RK 3.5 max travel, FOX IFP2.0 4-6" shocks, Gusset and Sleeve, SYnergy Ball Joints, Metal Cloak Bump Stops, 3/4" coil spacer, Teraflex exhaust spacer

Should I do these
With doing this I go back on forth on a re-gear to 4:88 or 5:13, Also PS Bomb Diff, ADAMs Front Drive Shaft, and Artec Truss , PS Hood Louvers, Spider trax Wheel Spacers, Rigid SR_M Rear Lights, Inspired Engineering Fogs. RuffStuff Tie ROD

It only has 15'000 miles, and I off road 5-8 times a year. I would like to do more obviously.


HELP!

Regear and a programmer will help push those 37s. There is a chart on the interwebz that shows a good idea of the power band you'll be in by running certain gear ratios with power train and tire size. I would think on the new power trains, you'd be fine with 4.88, but an automatic may need the 5.13 for 37s.

If you regear, you may as well change your diff covers to those PS ones at the same time.

I'd also go with the sleeves and gussets. With as infrequent as you wheel, and unless you're really slamming on your rig (bouncing/jumping it), I don't see the use for an axle truss.

With the 3.6 you really don't need to to re-gear too low,wheel spacers unless you're having clearance problems during flex,i'd say front drive shaft
