Before and after show thread
I know there are some B4 and after show threads out there, but there has been a lot of newbies asking for advice on mods thought this would be cool for them to get an idea of what it may look like plus some info as well.
Started Here: 03-02-08 Started with ’08 4 door Rubicon in Detonator Yellow
Options: Remote start, Single disc, Engine heater, Side air bags, Power group, Auto, Tow package, Unlimited lifetime warranty
Then this: Aftermarket:
3” BDS lift
1” M.O.R.E. body
RR Front Bumper
RR Front skid
WARN M8000/Wireless remote
Synthetic winch with synthetic rollers
Maxxis Bighorns 315/70 and wheels
Air Raid CAI
Superchips Flashpaq
Front Rear Camera
4 Rock lights
Hood lights
Uniden CB
Magellan GPS
TeraFlex Rear Trackbar re-enforcement
Solid Diff Covers
Control arm skids
EVO C2 gussets
Optima Blue Top

Hope this helps some of the guys asking about mods, I think being able to see the difference helps withthe decision.

that is sick I love it what happened to the snorkle was there something you did not like about it? I have been thinking about getting one, but realistically I have very little need and do not want to sacrafice MPG and performance.

Nope-- nothing wrong with the snorkel at all. I loved it, actually. I just can't see myself ever needing it. All the other mods I have, I either have used, or can see the potential need for. Where I wheel (almost exclusively high desert stuff) there are no river crossings, and I don't mud. I thought I might have a chance to use it at a spot where my family camps a lot, but it ends up that the way the bank runs on the river, it just won't happen.
I'll keep the snorkel handy if there is potential of using it, but until that time comes, no need for it to be on my jeep.
