sometimes people talk about their long term goals in their build threads....but for those of us still fixing mundane problems, what are your dreams for your xj?
mine are:
6 inch long arm kit (iron rock offroad i think)
rear bumper with tire carrier (detour's slimline one)
rock sliders (jcroffroad probably)
ARB air locker in my 8.25 rear
SYE (iron rock as well)
lights lights lights
skid plates for gas tank and tcase
redo steering gear on the front

Ha, this is pretty easy.
I've already got an ARB for my rear, and 4.10 gears all around.
So to start a front ARB locker.
1)Custom made (by me) roof rack with lights in front, side, and rear.
--all lights on top will be completely selectable. I can have any portion on or off at any time in any combo
2) Front and rear bumper
--front with a hoop, rear I may just use a tow bar
3)winch, no explination needed
4)Long arm setup
---have yet to decide how tall. I like LCOG, but not sure what I'll end up with
5) Sliders and skids
6)Yet TBD
I'm working out a turbo setup, but thats not gonna count.

The last thing I can think of off the top of my head is one of those b***hin tents that has the connecting piece that goes around the back of the jeep so you can get into the cargo area.

My Jeep is pretty much as complete as I want it, with the major exception of a H&T SYE.
Then I can remove the 1-inch TC drop, and regain some clearance.
Have a winch, so I don't need lockers
Now if I could only improve gas mileage. Gettin around 13 avg right now.

Selling it within two month and getting 3 grand for it 
Seriously though, first I have to get a new tie rod bar, sway bar & links, quarter armor, rebuild the front posi, new windshield, and repaint the thing. I'm not much of a Jeep guy lol
