After about a year of owning my JK, and searching through, "Wayalife" while taking LITTLE trails here and there while stationed out in Oklahoma, it was time to slowly start building, "El Jefe". Unfortunately, it had to wait a while because I was on my way to a new duty station...Hawaii! Once my JK arrived in Hawaii, I was ready to start ordering up some parts...but unfortunately, I wasn't told I was heading back out to Iraq weeks within arriving, so again...the build had to wait. I shipped my jeep to California where my wife can keep an eye on it and off I went. 7 months into my deployment, I was ready to start building him up (I couldn't wait any longer). Thankfully, I found Wayalife first, because I was ready to get some...not so quality parts. So searching and learning through peoples mistakes, I called Drew, out in ORE. He was a big help, keeping it real with me. After deciding what to go with, I stuck with some basics until I can afford to keep upgrading (or my wife gives me back my debt card):doh:. Now, I'm still deployed and haven't driven or seen my JK in person yet but, my wife keeps telling me how amazing it drives, while she plows through the Mojave Desert where she currently is. I know I need a winch, and I eventually want swap out my bumper for a stubby (just a personal preference), and deffinately re-gear but, other than that, what else would be some needed upgrades?
