Default 2015 Sahara

New member here. I have a 2015 JKU Sahara that i bought in May...my first Jeep after a long string of german cars. I started with some of the smaller upgrades while I learned what kind of wheeling i like doing. I've wheeled the piss out of it stock, so I have a build plan in mind for this daily driver. Located in North Atlanta.

Mods done:

- Quadratec Stealth LED headlights.
- JW Speaker LED taillights
- AntennaX 13" antenna
- Midland 75-822 CB radio wired to a 4' Firestik
- Smitty Tailgate Cover and Molle bags
- Rugged Ridge Grille Guard
- 1.5" wheel spacers

Planned Mods

- Rubicon sway bar with EVO No Limits knob (this one is under way, having issues with the used bar i bought )
- 2.5" AEV Lift
- 35" Tires (likely duratracs)
- Q-tec Tactik spare mount
- Rock-Slide Engineering Full width front bumper
- sPod

I'm sure it won't end there, but that's what i have planned for now.

-Xavier

Very nice, black Jeeps are just cooler

I'm planning on the same LED kit, how do you like it? Any pics of the front end to see how the stealth looks?

Nice ride, again!

Thanks!

Qtecs are a good upgrade over stock. Took me a while to aim them properly. I can't help but think sometimes that I should've splurged for the JWS headlights. At the time they were $700+ and not worth it. But now you can find a set of the EVO 2's for <$500. I'd probably go with those in a do over.

The JWS tail lights are awesome.

Thanks for for the insight (and pics!). Maybe the JWS are the way to go, after all...
