Post Ordered My Lift... Now What?

Okay, just ordered my 3.5" Rubicon Express Superlift w/ monotube shocks and steering stabilizer with my 35x12.5x17 KM2's and Pro Comp Wheels. The install will be all done next week, with everything fine for that.

But now im wondering, what do you all think my next project should be for the fall? I was stuck between lighting, bumpers, engine, or interior. Any opinions?

x2 couldn't agree more. Get the winch, bang up the stock bumpers. If you get bored turn your front into a stubbie bumper. then in the spring when you've saved some money, get the bumpers and lights.

I'd say new rear bumper/carrier so you can confidently mount your big new spare without worrying about bending your tailgate.
