Post by: Tyn Pow on December 08, 2010, 03:08:44 PM
What's your best, or favorite mod you've done to your jeep? 

From Winnie-the-Pooh steering wheel covers to Fox 2.5's, let's hear what mod you liked best...

Mine on the TJ was the little pink string to lock the tailgate without the key.

I think my favorite is a toss-up between the Stroker, the T18A, the twin stick Scout Dana 300, the custom Dana 44's, the lockers, the 36" Swamper SX's, and the Warn 8274. My new favorite mod should be the bead locks I will have installed this weekend.  8)

Probably the ARB bumper - saved the bodywork a few times so far (and winch), followed closely by the ScanGauge II and the Ham radio and then the bigger tires, though the new hands-free bluetooth device for the visor may rise quickly in the list.

The best mod by far are the 2 pink CJA stickers I have earned as of late...

They improve areodynamics, improve fuel economy and are just plan sassy!

ARB bumper, without it I would have wound up wearing the engine block from my Jeep.

One of the best, least thought about, and free mods is to take your YJ rear view mirror and flip it upside down.  Gives 100% of the original view out the back, while not being stuck in the middle of your YJ's windshield.

Definitely rear locker..although a spool for the d44 swap is going to take its place. Also my HD front bumper ,came in handy a few times.

my fav mod is removing top and doors, then  adding baby bucket and todler seat.  having a bunch of little jeepers share the addiction is pretty fun.
gotta start them YOUNG.

Ooohhh, I hear it's pretty easy to do on the trail as well!



Not enough experience to say too much, as I've only had the Jeep for 6 months now, but around town the "upgraded" speakers (I threw in some cheap pioneers) are nice.

On the trails I've had to use the lockers here and there...sometimes I turn them on when I could probably pass the obstacle without them though :-[


Ooohh, and the best winter mod by far was the ski rack added to the safari rack ;D

I'm thinking of installing an AM radio and an 8 track. 8 tracks are real cheap these day.
