I haven't seen one of these polls in awhile, so I thought what the heck. Especially when it came up the other day.

How much have you spent on parts for the build-up of your JK? This is just for parts, please do not include labor costs.

My guess is around 5K, but I try not to pay attention to it. Makes it easy to rationalize other buys.

Me too. I'm around $13K. I wanted to keep track of mine though. I still need to figure out what I want to get insured on it.

Maybe no one else wants to admit to themselves what they spent
