Just got my Jeep a month ago, already got the itch to start mods. my first thought is bigger tires n a small lift... i want to be able to take it on some tough trails, but nothing too extreme... its my DD so it needs to comfortable on the road. my question is, if you had it do all over again, what would your first $1000 go towards?

 

i started with rims for a nicer backspacing for a wide stance, well under 1000,

could also start with some black accents with $8 plastidip lol

my tip.

recovery straps drings Hilift and mount, maybe some lights and tint.

 

i was thinking I'd plastidip the rims n grille, prob do the home depot grille inserts. obviously i'm still well under $100 at that point. i was thinking nice seat covers n a BB... any suggestions on best products for lowest price?

 

You could swap your coils and shocks out for some Rubi take-offs. Hell, even pick up a set of Rubi tires and wheels, there are plenty out there with very low miles.

 

i thought about the rubi swap, about how much lift would that provide?

 

I gained 1.5" doing the rubicon spring(18/59).got springs and shocks on Craigslist for $200.

 

i have a '07 2dr X. would it matter the year of the rubi? 4dr?

 

Year doesn't matter, go with a 4dr if you decide to go that route.

 

thanks for the input guys! I'll post pics when i get around to doing this...

 

Let it ride on black and double your money....

But seriously, save it!!! Save up and do everything once. Do your research dont just spend it, to spend it.
