Second best mod has been power door locks, under $100, cheaper that trading it in for a new Wrangler, haha.

Worst mod so far, Edge Trail Jammer, module connectors don't fit, TB makes noise, a lot of hassle for a "simple bolt on" and no weekend support. I think it qualifies, module and TB are under $500.
the xmdirects are the coolest. i have one run through a pioneer premier. no pods to mount to the dash. all is run through the HU.

definate pick up.

Oh. I got an infinity basslink bolted down behind the back seat. It was under $400. great fill bass for people that care about some sounds.

For you (2000+ TJ) the bracket runs about 250, the clutch is about 140, then you got to get everything else.

You can run the v belt clutch that comes with the york but then you got to get a combo pulley, and I am not sure if when you relocate the alt if the serp belt length is changed.

But having seen a york setup in use and a Viair the york wins hands down. That being said when I was looking for an xmas gift I went with a Viair set up cause its a compleat setup for less than the bracket and clutch from kilby.

oba

converting my stock ac compressor to oba. Similar to the york but you need to add an inline oiler before the compressor. I did it for about 120$, without a tank. If the compressor dies, I'll buy a york and transfer everything over.

my 36x1350x15 iroks can be filled from 8psi to 24psi in about 1 minute each.

Check ebay, there's plenty of power door lock kits with 2 actuators, the control module and a pair of remote key fobs for under $50 including shipping. Do a search on ebay for "keyless entry". Figure a couple of hours to put it in if you never done one before. I have local places that sell it installed for about $100-150.
