Hey guys new member here

This is my first jeep, had it about a year now and am loving it!
It’s got a Rock Krawler 2.5” Flex lift with Fox shocks and 35” tires. Not sure what’s next, bumper, winch, flat fenders? Not really sure. I think I need to get it out a bit and see what I need.
Pretty new too off-roading - been out with a friend a few times to play in the mud and water and watch the dog bounce around but nothing since the mods have gone.

Looking forward to the 101 next month

Joey

Joey , looks purdy clean to me . Id start thinking about replacing factory skid plates and adding where they should have them . Water and mud dont hurt much , other than your sheet metal and frame stuff . Rocks on the other hand try to rearrange stuff. Your JK 4 door has a lot of space in between the tires so when you go over something the belly drags . Called break over angle. Dont know what you have for tires , MTs or ATs , but the more aggressive they are lets you get further up the trails with less trouble. Being a double duty Jeep ya kinda have to split the difference. You wont know which way you want to go till you decide how much fun you wanna have. Look at my avatar. Her name is "Mona" She is BEAutiful ----- from 30 feet away ! Ya feel me FjR68

Welcome, great looking jeep there, thou a bit too clean lol. Frank has some great advice there for ya, and I would say certainly come out to the trails and see what works for folks and understand it all, or at least start to. Nothing can replace experience be it yours or shared from others. Looking forward to seeing you out on the trails
