    I’d sell it. Probably abused and would fall apart soon.

    I'd change the bumper and headlights, and kill the chrome.

    Performance coilovers, ditch the spacer and the swaybar. Ride quality will improve dramatically

    Whatever that front metal bar boat bow looking thing is I'd replace. Is that needed on your truck for some reason?

    Lose the silly bumper. Judging by the total lack of scratches and dents on that thing, plus the action shot on the Rubicon of gravel piles, I'm guessing this more of a mall-crawler than a genuinely used off-road rig.

    Change steps to sliders (weld on) and get a proper suspension lift (5100s and OME coils and AAL in the rear, minimum)

    Stacked spacer lift, 22x12 wheels with stretched 33's, tow mirrors, bull nuts.
    Ditch the chrome, side steps (get sliders) and the spacer lift. Not a big fan of the wheels either, but the would be less important to me than the previous 3 items.

    I’d just have fun with it. Everyone’s opinion is just an opinion. So i’ll Be more constructive and give some opinions of what to add rather than take away.

    Maybe add some on board air, compressor or a co2 tank? Would make it easy to air down and back up if you hit any trails where you want to optimize traction.

    And my destructive opinion lol:
    Change out the tyger steps to sliders. You can’t really use a hi lift with steps.

    Edit: also interior upgrades? New shift knob? Seat covers? Cb/ham/walkie talkie for comms? Solid First aid kit? Ax/shovel mounts? Center Console organizer?
