Just picked up a 08 jk unlimited rubicon I'm lovin it so far. Still stock just shortend the from bumper with the vdp end caps if any one has any knowledge of cheaper places to get parts I'd love to know its kinda a budget build for right now

 

Welcome to the JK-forum. This thread has lots of low cost and free modification ideas.

X2 on this^^ this will keep you busy for awhile

 

Welcome! What's your end goal? I have 35's with wheels, lift and beefed up front axle for under $2000. That doesn't include upgrading transfer case or regear coming down the road. There are lots of cheap/ free things you can do. Cutting bumpers and flares is a big one

 

Surf the low cost/free mods thread and when you start your build I would go with 4wd and north ridge 4x4. They have the best pricing and free shipping. I believe Quadratec offers us forum members free shipping, but you have to PM a rep to get it. Also check out forgedoffroad.com and mention my screen name and you will get a discount.

 

Thanks all I will be checking it all out

 

Well not completely sure it's my daily/toy want to make it good all around from tame trail to rock

 

35's and a budget boost is a great way to do that. Mines also a daily driver, only vehicle. If you don't want to go bigger than 35, 15" wheels are a great way to make tires a lot cheaper

 

Budget boost is what like a body lift lol sorry kinda new to the jeep scene

 

Nope. It does the exact same thing as a suspension lift. Difference is, it uses polyurethane spacers that sit on top of stock coil springs instead of using new longer coils.

A body lift only raises the tub and body of the jeep, and does gain you any clearance for offloading. Just allows bigger tires
