Default What is my next mod...

I have about $350 laying around for next mod. Currently my 08 jku is pretty close to stock. I've done rubi shocks, dually d2's, dipped wheels black and thats about it. I'm trying to decide between 2.5 budget boost, rock rails, or a bull bar and led strip.

Or should I wait and get 2.5 coil lift next month? I'm planning on wheels and 33's in late summer when I need new tires.

Diff covers to protect your gears. If your pumpkin is on a rock, the sheet metal stock cover can brake it's seal and leak fluid.

Most off-road for me will be on the beach and light trails.

Coil springs gets my vote. They level out your jeep too.

I would say try and score some rubi rock rails for cheap and use the extra money to get the light bar. More light is always better for the beach at night

If 33s are the biggest tires you will be running, then look into the TF 1.5" performance leveling kit. It raises your front 2" and rear 1" enough clearance for your tires..
