Topic says it all. What’s next? A mod? A trip? Rooftop tent? Giving the keys to a family member? Going to the shop? Thought it’d be cool to hear the aspirations and plans from fellow jeepers.

Custom made rear tail light guards is next on my list. Going to the shop next week to get it drawn up. Between $200-$300, they aren't making any for the JT yet.

Bumper and winch went on this week and 2.5" lift and 35" tires went on the first week of ownership

As soon as I get it, first install topper, then go on road trip.

This is my long-term short-list plan...

What's next... Well... I'd guess once my JKS 1.5" lift rear springs come in, I'll be replacing my 2.5"/1.0" spacer lift with my EVO/JKS fully-adjustable frankenlift setup, so I'll be running full-springs instead of spacers.

Then, I'll probably order a toolbox for the bed (truck-style, low-profile & short depth) so I can carry some basic tools or anything else I need to put in there for off-roading, repairs, fixing other stuff around the house, or emergencies.

Then, what's next on the list, is probably going to be a Sunrider for Hardtop so I can keep the back part on, but quickly pop the Sunrider back on nice days, and close it back if I go in a store, or it looks like it's going to rain, and not have to tote my Freedom Panels around everywhere, or find somewhere to put them when I remove them.

Then, probably 4.88 gears.

Then, maybe forced-induction or SRT 6.4 Hemi swap.

Snuck a hemi in there. Nice! I thought about the sunrider too. The panels do get in the way - not a complaint but definitely a fact. Still a good trade off for the only convertible truck in the world.

Do the Hemi first so we can all stop hearing about how it needs a v8. Lol I kid.
