1. American flag decals
2 through 5: Main reason I bought Rubicon was so I didn't have to do 2 through 5.
6. Someday might consider a Mopar 2" lift with 35s but that's a long way off.

I have 33s. It rides more like a truck with big tires. A bit more bounce etc. I am hoping the Rubicon take offs will squash that. You can run a 35 on a Sport S. Remove the air damn between the bumper and fender if you have one.

I got the bedliner. Worth the money. LineX has a lifetime warranty. My buddy has had LineX in his truck for 20 years. Still looks good. Just flat black now.
I ordered rock hard for my side steps and rock rails. They come in about a week. I will probably put skateboard grip tape on the steps.

I grabbed Rubicon Fox shocks, spring perches and springs for $200 off Craigslist. People are lifting their Rubicons and selling them all day for dirt cheap. Will give about 3/4in lift and way better ride.
There are like 100 threads about it if you do a search. Don't start another thread on it. :like:

Well I am not that much more knowledgable just some stuff picked up from reading forums. The Tazer Lite I believe is what I got allows you to make a lot of changes to the vehicle settings which normally you can't access or change. The Idrive I liked since this is my daily driver should help with smoothing out the throttling and shifting on the Jeep at least I think in theory. They both will be here within the next couple days so will install and see what happens. Next week my side steps go on and my back bed cover. Today the Bedliner was sprayed and that alone changed the look of the truck.

Interesting to see what some people are listing as "mods".
Same. Unless it's a mechanical parts change it's just things you do to a car/truck. Floor mats - have them in my car. As well as a trunk mat. Trucks get bed liners and sometimes tonneau covers. Decals? Every crappy car at C&C is loaded with them.

Give me the wheels and tires, armor, winches, racks, and engine upgrades
