Put gasoline in it when needed, change the oil every 3000-5000 miles, and drive it.

Probably would be a good idea to get the tire size programmed into there. Will help with shift points if you're an auto as well as keep your speedometer correct. Really everyone goes about making their own mod list so where you should go is based on your driving and wheeling habits.

Since I purchased my JKR My steps so far have been:
1. Recovery gear
2. LED Headlights (+AEV Procal for DRLs)
3. Bumpers, winch, sliders, CB Radio
4. Suspension (2.5" coil lift)
5. Tires (35s, track bars, geometry correction)
6. Front Truss and gusset
7. Lighting (pillar pods, 50" light bar, associated switchgear)

In between I got a grill mesh, grab handles, fitted floor mats. Next on my list is going to be skid plates because both my crossmember and gas tank skids are bruised.

If I were you, I would go for lockers / gears. If you have 3.73 gearing you're completely fine with the 33x11 tire but a part time or selectable lockers would be a good idea.

You forgot the part about sitting back and counting money and putting it in the bank.

Thanks for the feed back I do need to find out what the gears are, it's a sport with Dana 30s so lockers might be next
