Hand throttle (installed this afternoon), impact wrench and sockets and the best was a rockhard cage that should be arriving at Lou's next week.

The hand throttle would have been useful driving to/from MOAB!!!!!!!

NewAir G73 electric heater. It is a very small cube that puts out some MAJOR heat!

The buggy received alloy front axle shafts, a 4.0L HO from a 1993 XJ, and recently some plastic ass buster racing seats.

I LOVE my hand throttle, I think it'd one of the best mods on my TJ. It's already in the plans for my CJ, I know its an easy install, but it will be 10x easier with out anything in the way.

Thanks! even though its an O7 its the nicest ride we've owned and yes it has the 5.7... pretty much loaded only thing it doesn't have is a DVD player and its factory certified so the drive train is covered for another 2 years or 40K miles.
