If you run hims or flex joints in the mud I would say stock up on joints! Other then that. If your in mud build a snorkel mine was only $60.

Voted rock sliders because you can get stuck and be fine, you can be in the dark and be fine, and you can run with a stock exhaust. But you smash your rockers and there's no going back. Plus it might help preserve your unibody. Just my .02.

For the snorkel I had to make a new bottom for the air box but still use the top and still in the stock location.
The rack is made with conduit didn't take long want to have a liberty renegade light bar to go in front. but they arn't cheep.
I have a few more picks of each on my build thread no real right ups but you can get the idea.
I would also suggest lockers.
