I have Hella 4000 lights on the bumper. They are HID and they work really well. I upgraded the jeeps crappy headlights to Hella H4's with a harness straight to the battery instead of the Jeep CANBUS. Huge improvement and now I don't really need the HID with 80/100 bulbs in the headlights. If I were to do it again I'd replace the headlights as the first mod.

I put on a winch bumper, winch, front skid plate, and PureJeep hooks. I really like the setup, but regret that it added so much weight to the front. About the only thing I can do to reverse the weight problem is change to synthetic line and an alloy fairlead. Hey, at least I know what my next mod will be. 
But here is the real deal: Wish I hadn't been such wuz, thinking I needed so much comfort and newness. For less money could have had a tricked out YJ or some such with barely any electronics to go bad, that great old inline 6, and no factory warranty to worry about loosing if I use my Jeep like a Jeep.

I bought a/ts and 2500 miles later bought m/ts. i went with a front stubby bumper and kinda wish I had a full or mid length. Ironically enough, I decided on 2.5" lift with 33s and 4.10s and I'm perfectly happy with not being bigger.
. I guess the get bigger bug skipped me.

PSC rock brawler. It was actually one of the slimmest rear bumpers I could find, but It still wasn't right for me and how I use my jeep. I now just have bare frame rails, but they too are starting to get mangled from banging them on stuff.
I think for my wheeling the best solution it to stretch the jeep out so I have a 90* departure angle.

To the guys that had the 2.5 BB when u lifted it higher to say a 4" did you have to mess with the driveshafts? And do you have a 2 or 4 door.

Quadratec has a link to the same information on their website.
4WheelParts has a link to the same information on their website.
Not saying that it isn't an annoyance, just that it is a known issue that everyone can easily find out about before purchase...
