yeah...good idea...you could deff. mount some lights up on there...havent done it to mine but i guess you would just drill a coulple holes where you need them and sink a couple of bolts in there with nuts to hold the lights up...then run the wiring

yeah wal mart lights would do the trick...or maybe pep boys or advance auto parts....

yeah i'd do tires and wheels before lights...then maybe roof rack and front bumper...

that thing would look sick...and a Budget boost would be cheap for your ZJ too...if you were looking for that...all you would need are coil spacers all around (about $70 for 4)...

well damn yours looks fine.
i'll have to find out what size my tires are now and see what an upgrade would do


they are 215/75/15




with a 2in lift would i need to mess with brake lines and all that?

i dont believe you would need extended brake lines...i know for my xj i wouldnt even for a 3" lift...

also on mine i could use the stock shocks for a 2'' and below lift... i dont think you would need to buy shocks either for a 2" but you would have to ask one of the ZJ guys for that answer...
