General comments?
What an awesome 4x4!
I put a 3" lift and 31" tires on my Jeep and I am extremely impressed at it's off-road capabilities. I feel I can go just about anywhere.
Other mods I am very happy about are a Flowmaster 3 chamber performance muffler (~$80) and Rusty's Air Tube with K&N cone shaped air filter ($60). Both of these mods have increased the gas mileage and performance significantly.
Unlike most trail vehicles, my Jeep also looks great on the road.
However, Jeep did not do a great job on the paint. The clearcoat has disappeared on the top of the rear hatch. Also, there are no cup holders!
