Default What to do first?

Hey everyone,

Just picked up a '12 JKU Altitude last week.

What should be the first mod I should do?

Nothing drastic and on budget.

Welcome to the forum. What kind of build are you wanting, and like others said, what kind of budget?

Thank you for the welcomes!

It's going to be my daily driver so ....

Budget isn't high right now as it was spur of the moment yes honey trade your '11 F-150 in for it. Woo hoo type of thing.

With so many accessories and goodies I was wondering what are some must do/haves.

You could possibly look at Ace rock rails and some bumpers.

You could get a 2.5" budget boost and some lightly used 35s for probably around $1000 total. Again depending on budget, but for me, lift and tires first thing for sure...

How's the ride with the budget boost? And which one? I know a few companies offer them.

A better stance would look goos I agree.
