    I'd start with a good lift that will hold all the weight your wanting to put on it, them go with some sliders and a good set of tires. From there see what YOU need if u don't need lockers right away and need full armor get that. If u don't need armor but go through a lot of water get a snorkel.

    While all those mods are pretty good there isn't always a specific order in which they "need" to go on.

    I would want to know what your intended use is before I put them in any order. I'd also want to know how much money you plan to spend in the first round and how long between purchases (could make a difference if it were me).

    Going in blind, here's what I'd do:
    Wet Okoles (assuming you will need this to protect your interior, if not then move this down the list)
    Sliders - great investment to protect costly body panels
    OME Lift Kit with 886 coils (only if bumper (or skids) and LR UCA's purchased also)
    ARB Bumper
    Skids
    Rear bumper
    Bestop
    Baja rack
    Snorkel (move this up if you plan to wheel in deep water, need to protect the engine!)
    Rear locker and Compressor
    Front locker

    The winch I'd put in where ever you feel it will be most beneficial. If you wheel alone, maybe it should be closer to the top of the list. If it's just added security and the people you wheel with typically have one, then maybe hold off.

    Again, this is going in blind, not knowing what type of terrain you wheel, how often you wheel and what your driving skill is.

    I added my suggestions to the quote, Id do the lockers first with the compressor. Skids and so on.
    Good luck.

    Let me add this: I have 4 Hella 500's and nowhere to put them. And it will be a slow build due to still being in school...

    Oh.... so this is more like a long term wish list, not a hardcore expedition build up :rolleyes:

    That's ok, take your time with it. Do things once and do it the way you want it.

    Would y'all say it's okay to ride the OME lift with stock size tires?

    I'm looking forward to it...I may keep the look for a while, too. I have almost brand new tires (<5k miles) right now, and the lift will be coming around Christmas. My suspension needs replacing but the wallet's tire fund hasn't had time to recover yet...:smash:
