So I finally did it, I'm building my first jeep [emoji16][emoji119]! Shes a 2020 JLU Sport S. Just got her last month, I had some money set aside for the initial set up I wanted to run, so I got the wheels and tires (17" XD137, 35" Nitto ridge grapplers), 2.5" AEV lift, rubicon fenders with a Quake LED fender chop kit, and Poison Spyder inner fenders.
In the next few months I'm planning on adding rock sliders and steps ASAP (my short stumpy legs are already having to hop to get in and the lift isn't on yet), followed by a bumper and winch, then some skid plates to protect the underbelly, and some interior upgrades that really don't add much to the performance side but will make her my own. My question to everybody is the following. What else should I have in mind or be considering to upgrade or fix down the road, and what preventive maintenance am I going to be looking at?
I'd love any feedback, tips or advice that I could get from any of the more seasoned members here as I am a total rookie at this and while I understand basic mechanics I am no hardcore grease monkey and want to make sure my rig is running 100%, as this is gonna be my daily driver for the next 5 or 6 years.
Any and all help or advice is welcome! Thanks in advance everybody! Below is a picture of her with the wheels and no lift, I'll post more pics next week when she gets her AEV lift thrown on!
