What is your ultimate vision for your JK?
Was just thinking today that there are several ways to build up your JK and I thought it would be fun to have a poll to find out what you ultimately envision your JK to be. Stocker? Mudder? Rock-climber? Expedition? Mall-crawler? Phat Dub Mobile?

Mine would be Expedition. I've always liked the versatility of a Jeep and I think the Expedition build with roof rack, aux lights everywhere, winch, snorkel, gerry cans, onboard air, and lots of survival equipment is the way to go. Heavy, somewhat over-accessorized, not terribly good at anything in particular but equipped to handle any situation. I've always liked my Jeep that way and that's what I'll be building to

Yeah I know. The modding never truly ends. I'm maxed out right now because of my wallet (or lack of) but the shopping list keeps growing

Expedition style. I prefer the roads optional road trip and mine is largely a tool for getting to the places I want to hike/bike/climb/ski/snowboard, and as I am learning to kayak that too.
I choose my JK Unlimited Rubicon over a Land Cruiser largely because of the much larger parts catalogue...the classic style (that never goes out of style) doesn't hurt either.

As for my intentions with my JK, I JUST put on 37's. Re-geared and locked the rear, bought a beefed D30 front, getting control arms, etc. It's coming out sick.
Eventually, my final phase, would be something for crawling, mud, trails, daily driving, trailering, and some jumping too...
-Dana 60 front/GM Corporate 14 bolt rear
-42" tires on Walker Evans beadlocks
-custom cage like out of a CJ
-racing seats w/ 5 point harnesses
-coilovers all 4 corners
-Cummins BT4 diesel
Maybe one day...

I didnt even see these mods coming. Have a set of bushwacker flat flares, air compressor, power inverter, and CB waiting for me to get home to install. I think im going to jump on the teraflex big brake thing next month. As long as im taking wheels off I might as well put some slotted rotors on the back. And then im done....until my winch gets delivered hopefully this month. But some backup lights might have to get installed too. And then im done. But hopefully then MBRP will get off their asses and come out with a exhaust upgrade. And then ill be done. Until superchips comes out with a '12 flashpaq. And then im really really done. Ive never had a forced induction vehicle though. I need a pirate flag too.
