$6000 to spend

I would put a Detriot in the rear or maybe a selecable locker, maybe a selectable locker or true trac in the front. Gusset the C's. Rock sliders, preferably that weld/mount to the frame not the body. Pick up on board or portable air, recovery equipment (winch with winch accesories, highlift, recovery strap), safety and first aid stuff. Maybe a leveling kit.
Or just the sliders, recovery and safety stuff and go. Your Jeep is already ready for mild trails.

I do have a family member that is getting everything wholesale and we will be using his shop to put everything on...just might have somebody to the re-gearing for me. I am doing 37's with 3.5" lift that is a must for me especially when we arent using it as a DD.
im hearing the gussets and gearing will be good enough run the 37's and with the trails i plan to run i dont think that the axles are a must right now...but given that i have enough money leftover...i could do that myself...right?
all that needs to be done is repeat the same process as putting axle seals on right?? Do you guys think the locker are a must at this point?
you guys have helped out a ton!

Was checking out offroad evolution and saw they have the BDS and Currie 4" lifts.
Anybody know much about either? Might go with a different lift, but looks like a decent price for the items received. If no good things are said about either..no biggy...think i will probably get their EVO Mfg 44 Magnum Sealed JK/TJ Axle Sleeves and EVO Mfg C2 Axle Gussets for good insurance and just keep my stock drive shaft.
Thoughts?
