Besides lift kits and lockers, what modification/bolt-on would you consider to get the most bang for your buck?

Tom SubscriberTom SubscriberBased on my most recent experience, following closely on the heels of lift and protection, I'd go with a top notch set of tires before locking.

Sounds like armor is the best money spent after saftey and recovery.
What about odd mods? I was reading an article where a guy took the roof rack off of a junk yard Ford Explorer and bolted them onto his TJ Hardtop so he could mount his kayaks on top.

I really like having a good CB. I like the conversation.
I also really liked my "camping" lights. I can't say I see a whole lot of need for rock lights other than to turn your headlights off to avoid blinding the person in front of you, but it sure makes setting up a tent in the dark a whole lot easier. 😀

Spare parts are good too but if your rig is up to snuff and you are wheeling within your rigs capabilities you shouldn't break. My breakage has been from stupidity or lack of maintenance. Both of these problems are avoidable.
