that makes good sense. I'm too tight to put a tire on my Jeep that will fit without lifting it.

personally i have gone this route: this is my order of upgrades and future upgrades

<completed mods>
1. lights + standard 4x4 gear (straps, shovel etc.)
2. tow hooks
3. hi-lift
4. wheel cover
5. graphics and custom dash kit

<future mods>
6. 3" full traction lift w/ shocks on the way now!
7. XD assault rims w/ super swamper traxxus 35"s (15x8)
8. next will be... bumpers = front leaning toward PJ stubby but still waiting on other designs to make up my mind.
9. rear bumper w/ tire carrier again looking at what comes out but so far like the pj and jeeperman units
10. winch leaning toward warn or t-rex on this
11. gears 4.88
12. lockers waiting to see the ox selectable lockers
13. body armor ( rock skids, rear crush panels, underbody skids)

thats my main list for now, should keep me busy for several months.
sure there will be tons of miscellaneous stuff along the way.

I'd start with bumpers since I'm waiting on the lift until my Rubicon tires wear down and need replacing.
