Curious: Are there any "mandatory" or "no-brainer" mods for the TJ?

Got a pic?

It’s law that all TJ’s should have a LED light bar and an angry bird grill.

@lovemachine, are you trying to spread hate and discontent?

Looks much better as a stubby. My next project for sure.

Oh my word, I just googled the grill and... Are those people shot on sight? lol

Has anyone done a CTIS mod for their TJ?

Not that I'm aware of.

LED headlights for sure. Stock headlights are garbage.

Hella's or LED's.

Milk jugs and headlights

I've already got an e-mail into Caesar at Lightwerkz to see if they do a kit for a TJ.

Mine are all OEM but the tires (KO2).
It does not bother me at all

The biggest no brainer mods for TJs in my opinion are a nice sunshade such as the Alien Sunshade and LED headlights (more about those here): Jeep Wrangler TJ LED Headlight Upgrade Options

I second that and some quick release bolts for your hard top along with some grab handles. Also a hard top hoist of some sort. I swear we could do this all night!

What are the "milk jugs"?

The stock plastic bumper end caps. They look like black milk jugs. They also sound like milk jugs when you throw them in the trash.

Yes.

If starting from scratch,
headlight/fog light upgrade
good floor mats
stereo upgrades
good seat covers(Bartact)
recovery gear
bumpers
winch

 

[JMT]

Seat risers for the 03-06 TJ’s
Milk jugs
Head unit and speakers
Spidershade or Alien Sunshade
Headlights (if you drive at night often)

My no brainer mod is like most of the other things I recommend, most won't see the value immediately and sometimes never, but the value is there. My mod is you. Go drive it, go learn how to drive it, go learn how to make it get you where you want to go before you start building it. Start on the easy stuff, learn tire placement, learn momentum and how to use it correctly. When that no longer gets you where you want to go, then start building the rig and the build plan at that point will be very easy because you will know what you need and won't have to ask anyone. Don't fall prey to the concept of building the rig instead of building your skills. That is pretty much doing it backwards and I've wheeled with a bunch of that type and they are no better today at navigating the trails than they were the first time they got behind the wheel.

They are easy to spot, they have the biggest rig in the group and struggle the most.

Might sound like a goofy "mod".... but I found this thing to significantly make the ride more comfortable as you get from point A to point B.

 

[cliffish]

Sancho you installed an office chair as a mod...I want to see a write up of that!
