looking for opinions....
Hey all
I am new to the forum but not new to jeeps. I recently bought a 2010 Rubicon 6 speed with all the upgrades. It was time to treat myself after grad school!
Anywho, I am starting to look into upgrades and wanted to get the opinion of the experts! Having said that, keep in mind this is both my offroad fun (20%) and daily driver (80%) so it has to manage both.
Here is what I have already ordered and am puttin on in 2 weeks when i get it all:
5 Mickey Thompson MTZ Radial Tire 35X12.50R-17
5 Series 7028 Cast Black 5-Spoke Simulated Bead Lock Wheel by Pro Comp
Rubicon Express JK 3.5" STANDARD KIT, 2 DOOR
I have been looking at the forum for ideas but it is overwhelming.. Here is what im considering doing next:
- Upgrade rear tire holder to fit 35" tire.. Ideas?
- Upgrade front bumper and add winch... Ideas?
What else should I consider? Im interested in both aesthetic upgrades as well as functional ones...
Thanks all, there is so much to do!

Yah i keep hearing that. Im pretty sure that will be the rear bumper...
What goes well with it as a front? Another LOD or something else? Looking to keep factory lights as well as add a winch...

the rugged ridge xhd modular front bumper and the rear with carrier is hundreds less than the LOD. Looks good and functional and if purchased by Thursday, there's a $100 rebate. Bryan from 4wd.com put together a very good package price.
