I'm under a grand, and I can blame SWMBO for keeping it that low.
She's aces, but she really needs to understand that just because I'm laid off, I shouldn't have to give up my pleasures! We can eat store-brand macaroni and cheese!

I have kept mine under $500 so far. But I do have a birthday and Christmas coming up, so I have to wait until after then. My wife says that she has to have some ideas of what to buy me.

I have spent so far about 5000$ and much more to come
Just got a price for complete front and rear drive shafts,so already its going up again
Still waiting for the OR-FAB tire carrier also,so much more and not enough money.
The great thing is my wife is having as much fun as I am,we're loving it

I've spent about $4000. Man does it add up quick and my JK isn't nearly as built up as some of the members here....
That $4000 doesn't include the new clutch I needed after my last four wheelin' trip.....
