I say go to your local casino and put it on red and if you are lucky you will double you money. If you aren’t the lucky type, then you are going to need to sell some more stuff.

Dont waste your money on the soft top..Save your $ for lift and tires and gears or get the superchips now as youll need that later if you lift it

Default Order of 'stuff'

It all depends on what you are gonna do with it. If you plan on going to Rausch Creek (since NJ has NO LEGAL places to ride) I would recommend going with 'protection' first. It would really suck to be out on the trails and have a rock put a gash in your diff or dent your new jeep. My order would be the following for rock crawling:

Protection
Heavy Duty Diff Covers
Rock Rails
EVAP Relocation

Stuff for the trail
CB Radio/Antenna mount
Hitch with D-Ring adapter
Tow Hitch
Fire Extinguisher
First Aid Kit

Performance
New MBRP off road Exhaust
Open Air Kit

Lift
Tera Flex 2.5 BB with shocks
Tera Flex Spidertrax Spacers (needed with lift)

Misc.
Grab Handles
Front Bumper End Caps (Chop your bumper)

Default Flashpaq tuner

Is the Flashpaq tuner worth it? Or is it just something that makes me feel like, I think I can tell the difference?

Does it void my warranty?

Default Spent much of the $500 bucks already

So thanks everyone for replying to my thread. It really was really a big help!

I am waiting for everything to come in, once it does I will take pictures and post it on here. Probably take a week or so.

1. Trektop 175$ - Used, great deal from RAINSTATEBEAR
2. Black Magic 500 Hella Lights 101$ - Amazon, free shipping
3. Auxiliary Light Mounts - 83$ - Quadratech (Shipping is a rip off)
Leaving 141$ left for-

4. Teraflex Leveling Kit - 125$ - Northridge 4X4 - Havent bought it yet, contemplating getting the disconnect hardware for the extra 50 bucks, making me 39$ over budget.

Not going with the super chip thingy, bank that money on savin for a supercharger. (In my dreams)
If you're going topless every weekend in the summer, then get the top. We love our rag top and for long trips we carry the windows in the back just in case. It just wouldn't be MY jeep with a hard top on it, (sorry)
