Favorite Mod Under $500?
lift, wheels, and tires is usually the first upgrade a jeeper makes that will put a pretty significant dent in the bank account. after this is out of the way, i was wondering what everyone's favorite mod was under about $500. what do you think gives you the most bang for your buck?

Onboard air via a belt-driven York compressor and air tank, about $300. Being able to run air tools on the trail and air up all four tires in five or six minutes total is pretty tough to beat.

500$ fuel card. That several pretty nice camping/wheeling weekend trips right there.
The next time you have $500, you'll definately know what you need to get with it. |

I got my BFG 33" mud terrains new for 400 bucks. Very happy with those. After that would probably be the lockright up front for 250
