Where do you drive it?

One thing that most owners want is more usable power and shifting (auto). If this is your case a programmer would improve any JK.

Looks like a decent setup. If you don't already have it invest in recovery gear.

Things to consider to take on the trail:
Tow Strap
D Rings
Basic metric socket set
Shovel
Fire Extinguisher
Not sure how big your lift is but a Hi Lift if you need it


Another mod:
Do you have disconnects?

The only other thing to consider is a new rear bumper. The front would be nice with a winch but you only get so much time with 35's on the tire carrier before it will do damage.

Any recommendations? I really want one without a pin lock for the carrier?
