Hi guys,
Just thought I'd share a few pictures and add to this thread as I make small additions here and there. I bought the KJ because I have a baby on the way so the list of mods is small and basic but I enjoy sharing anyways. I just bought it last week but I'm loving it so far.
I took it out for some light off-roading the day after I bought it to see what it could do. I'm no newcomer to wheeling so I wanted to push it a bit without getting stuck or beating it up too bad.
Here's a picture with the wheels photoshopped black...
I may either be painting the stock wheels to save money, or buying new ones. If I go new, I have been looking at these: http://www.jegs.com/i/Black-Rock/262/950671240/10002/-1?parentProductId=1561260 I currently have a brand new set of stock 225/75-16s on it that the dealer installed prior to purchase so I won't be replacing tires any time soon. While I'm either painting or replacing the wheels, I'm going to add a set of locks to them also.
This weekend I added a tow hook to the receiver out back to match the two Mopar hooks on the front.
Then I added a sticker that I thought was appropriate in more ways than one
I purchased a Rightline 15-cubic-foot waterproof roof top carrier for longer trips, and a cheap vinyl back seat cover for the pending little one from Wal-Mart (no pics yet, sorry). I also got my new plates, tags and my real insurance cards this weekend so she's official!
Besides doing something with the wheels, I may also trim the lower portion off my front bumper for a more leveled look and install a .5" clevis spacer to raise the nose up a bit. I haven't decided on that yet though. I also plan to get an aFe Pro Dry S drop-in filter and perhaps an aftermarket muffler... Something quieter like a Borla, Dynomax, or Gibson. I'm trying to not go overboard with spending money on the KJ since the whole point of me buying it was for a practical family vehicle.
Lots of great areas to explore within an hour of me in all directions.
