NJ Jeep Invasion Shopping...

So now that the weekend is over and we returned home, unhooked the trailer and un packed everything, I thought it would be a great time to share with you what I purchased over the weekend, what I plan to purchase and what I have changed my mind about.

If you have ever shopped with me you know that I like to see everything (several times) before I actually buy anything. This is how the weekend played out much to the annoyance of my son... I took perhaps three laps of the vendor area with my family and my friends and then I followed up with a forth lap alone to spend more time with specific vendors I planned to buy from. After all my searching, I decided to purchase the following items:

• Metalcloak JL Wrangler M220 Rear Differential Skid Plate (DSP)
• EVO Manufacturing ProTek Rear Shock Skids - JL
• Dana 44 AdvanTEK Front Differential Cover Kit Blue - JT/JL
• Dana 44 AdvanTEK Rear Differential Cover Kit Blue - JT/JL

What I plan to purchase:

• AEV's JL rear bumper (look for updates here) (Rumored for October)
• Metalcloak or Artec's Inner Fender Liners
• Metalcloak's front Diff Skid Plate when it's ready (Rumored for September)
• Adjustable control arms (not sure on manufacturer yet)

What I have changed my mind on...

• Current LOD front bumper - just not really happy with the fit. Finish is great and I have had zero issues with it, it's just a personal styling issue or so. I think I will be going with the AEV front to match the rear bumper that both my wife and I love.

Once I get everything delivered and installed, I will post an update.

The Journey is what counts, Adventure Awaits!
