Greetings from Montana
Hey
New to the forum; From rural montana; I have a 2008 JKU which I use for Sasquatch research and camping: Sasquatch Watch of Montana. Looking forward to seeing how everyone has your Jeeps set up. I am planning a rear kitchen for mine, I also have a CVT hard shell RTT on mine.

P.S. Wife has a 2015 JKU (I miss her engine...LOL)

Welcome aboard, we are glad to have you as a part of our community! Would be great, if you can share some pictures of your JK with us, when you have a chance. What upgrades exactly are you planning to do?

Right now it's a 08 Maroon Sahara JKU with a stock 3.8L (downside LOL) 102K miles, in great shape for it's age, auto, equipped with Smittybilt SRC Carbine steel front bumper w/ fogs, Smittybilt XRC 9500 winch, 2 cube LED lights on front bumper guard, Truck light LED headlights, Smittybilt tube rear bumper :(, Smittybilt SRC side armor guards/steps, Smittybilt SRC roof rack which holds my CVT hard shell RTT, 40" LED double row light bar on roof rack, 3 1/2" Rubicon Express lift, 285/65-18 Cooper STT PRO tires, Rugged Ridge hood latches. Looking at a more camping, expedition style of vehicle more so than a rock crawler type.
Immediately planned mods: Windshield brackets for Rigid Dually cube lights (on hand), Added lights for back-up lighting, Mount for my Hi-Lift jack, Dual battery setup under hood, Design and build a rear kitchen/storage system, Tailgate Table, some kind of awning setup (270 deg?). Repair or replace existing Infinity stereo system.
Down the road mods: Replace tube rear bumper with something more substantial, probably with spare tire mount, skid plates, cold air intake & chip(suggestions?), Front and rear Diff cover, fridge/freezer, portable solar kit, replace fenders. Anything else that comes to mind (and it will!).
