2006 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
My Nevada Exploring Rig
First I installed a Garmin 478 GPSMAP with TOPO Maps and XM weather capabilities, for my job in the Seismic field. Next was the Wilderness rack for the beacon. Then my friend who also owns a Jeep kept bugging me to get a lift kit and it was all downhill from there. I bought the Skyjacker Lift kit 4” Double Flex with Nitro Shocks and had it installed. Then decided it needed tires and rims so I got the Mickey Thompson Classic (Simulated Bead Locks) and the red rings (to match the red lift components) with TRXUS 33’s. Looked great! But still not as nice as my friend’s, so I had to get the Body Armor double hoop front bumper with side hoops and Warn Rock Crawler 9.0 Winch (also red). Also the Body Armor rear swing out bumper with the high lift jack and jerry cans. Wow! What a transformation! So I kept thumbing through the awesome selection of stuff from the Quadratec catalog and decided that I needed to boost the power a bit with the Trail Jammer Intake kit. What a difference in power. I was impressed and thought I would add a Banks Header and Cat-Back exhaust setup. Also match painted Xenon Fenders done by Brandy’s Hot Rod in Bakersfield, California.
A few accessories: Two sets of PIAA fog lights and the Rugged Ridge RRC Side Armor Guards, (they look killer and I had them welded on the frame for better reinforcement).
Still plan on getting the ARB lockers and covers with 4:10 gears.
