I get it. I’m not sure how many guitars I have. 13 or 14 maybe? 3 sets of drums, ukeleles, harmonicas, banjo. I usually fudge the price, but buy her something because I feel guilty.
Same on Jeep parts
OP
Coming along well mechanically. New exhaust, manifold back. Fuel pump. Had 4.88s installed and there was a bonus detroit locker in the rear. Just tires and shocks left to do, then pretty it up

Went wheeling! On a 1 to 5 scale we wheeled a class 2,LOL went through 1ft mud puddle and started going up a logging road that narrow and deep ruts. Chickened out and backed out. My daughter and her friend came
Next time just go for it! It will build you confidence. Congrats on the new hobby, it will pay for a lot new jeep parts...

New lights, new soft top and new net. All fathers day gifts
Chances are you will end up replacing those fender flares, I have many of them tear at the mounting holes from the tires rubbing on them. And yes I know the feeling about how much money you can put into a jeep. You didn't hear this from me but you can always use cash to buy a Visa Card from any local supermarket. Then you can buy goodies from anywhere and have it shipped to your work address and like the CIA there is no paper trail. 
When I die I hope my wife sells my jeep for what it worth, and not what I have told her.
