I feel like if you bedline the interior you will regret it. It's hard to clean, it's hard to make it look perfect, it's expensive, and you lose insulation against sound and warmth/cold.
That's just my 2¢! That money could be better spent on a hundred other things?

Just installed the Rough Country Stubby Bumper. Like the stubby look. Now im going to look at installing a winch because lastnight i was buried in a hole with no winch for 3 hours!

Also was my first time getting the jeep stuck. High centered after sliding down into a deep rut on the drivers side. Worth it though, gives me some ideas of what i really want out of this jeep for my personal use.

The way I see it, that winch is your tow truck service, that winch is your buddy with another Jeep who will come get you out of the mud.
Also, getting a winch is the #1 thing that every Jeep owner wants to get!!!!!! Look to see if you can get one with Black Friday deals?

Just picked up a hi lift model 484 in a garage sale for 40 bucks, works great. Needs a fresh coat of paint for some surface rust spots. Going to buy the hood mounts for it and post pictures when installed.

Just don't use a hi-lift jack to jack up the vehicle to change tires... those hi-lift jacks can be incredibly dangerous.
Yeah, i read up on that. My boss at work is a jeep fanatic, so he never minds if i have to put the jeep on the lifts at work. Makes working on it a whole lot easier, just picked it up for any offroad obstacles that might require it, better safe than sorry.

Don't forget a winch too! That's the most important thing to have.
Trust me. Once you have a winch you'll NEVER need that hi-lift, I can all but guarantee it!
Oh absolutely. I plan on having the hi lift as a mechanical backup in case of electrical failure with the winch. Running a tow truck for a while gave me some safety experiences with alot of different applications with winches and jacks. Although, i do agree that the hi lift is extremely dangerous when not used with extreme caution!

Yeah, I see people trying to use those hi-lifts to lift the body off the ground and change a wheel / tire. Clearly they don't know any better, because if they did, they'd know that's very, very dangerous.
So far my winch has gotten me out of every single situation I've ever been stuck in (thank goodness)!
Yeah thats always super risky! And thats good, how much cable are you running out of your winch? Ive always wondered how much you can run. (Out of a 8000 or 9000 lb.)

My Warn M8000-S came with a 100 ft. synthetic cable, though I've probably never extended it out past 80 feet I suspect.
