okay looks like transfer case is at the top of my list, then probably F+R diff covers (solid axle).

I'd get rock sliders before diff covers. I've been wheeling for several years with my WJ with the stock diff covers and mine are fine. If I'd been without rock sliderz, my WJ's doors wouldn't open!

Get the transfer case skid first, espicially if you have the 242 (Select Track). It hags so low its just begging to get destroyed by a rock.

T case, sliders, diff covers, gas tank raise and skid, F/R bumpers

I had pretty much no choice but to boat side my zj after destroying the rockers wheeling. make the sliders yourself if you can its a lot cheaper if you have the skills
