| we've all be through it. what did you spend your money on for your rig and wish that you could get that money back. I've been through quite a few but perhaps the worst upgrade was the Pro-Comp coil spring conversion kit. that thing flexed like a tank. | |

| Okay Bill I will play. Revolver shackles for the front of the YJ. I like them in the rear but they sucked in the front. They are still in a box in the garage. | |

| nth degree piece of dog shit stinger to "eliminate" the spring wrap. Not only was it initially a waste of money but i continued wasting time and money on it trying to force a poor design to work. Bigger waste than that of which I'm almost embarrassed to say was getting the extended flares painted to match the Jeep LMFAO. Times have changed... | |

Well hell Nick if you want to go there. I think there was the about 3 years of worthless jeep gifts that I asked for from parents girlfriends and family between the ages of 18-21 that everything that was given to me for the jeep is now worthless. Once I started wheeling my direction changed with the YJ. | |

| The rear suspension seat was a waste and so was the hand throttle but it wasn't my idea to put either in. I only use the hand throttle as a poor man's cruise control and I sold the seat. Every other upgrade I have been happy with. However, it's only because of all the knowledge you guys have given me over the years that I have made good decisions so thank you for that. | |

Wait till you get gear in your jeep and you might learn to use it. Its the best 20 buck part I have on the YJ in my opinion. | |

| the front tube bumber... I should have went with the DOM version to match the rear, but went with the 2" double tube front because it was $50 vs. 300... thin walled like aluminum piece o junk... bent worse then the stock one, and already rusting after a year. | |

| LOL... trying to. just every time I grab the key to pull Blue out of hiding, I get hit by the ex... she is holding the title hostage still... Legal action coming soon, but I don't want him rolling, running, and out in the open (out of hiding) until I have the title and tags in hand... She is ruining my entire summer fun. Worst Jeep investment... having a co-signer when I bought it.... Grrrrrrr.... | |
