I would like this thread to be a listing of modifications that have BEEN done to the KJ to make it better for off road use. An example: the plate that goes from the front skid plate up to the bumper area. It works.
So, what have you done? Share it with everyone in this thread. Who know it may become a sticky! :shock:

EDIT: I looked at the other thread and it isn't exactly what I wanted. It takes forever to read each one to look for something other than the "usual" stuff.

Do not list the usual stuff: lifts, lockers, tow points, tires and stuff like that. Everyone does that.

Ok, My mods to make it "better" for off road use include:

SFA conversion w/ Flat belly skid........ :wink: Guess it Is kinda just a big lift and all but I wanted to play in this thread too.

Tom: Go for it! Someone ground down a part that is setting real low and welded on a little skid plate so it would go over rocks easier. I don't remember who or what it was. But that is the "unusual" type of mods that I want to see here. Like I said your road sign dirt/mud deflector was a great idea that a lot of people still don't know about.
