how is your recovery and armor on your jeep? that would be the next thing i would do.

What rear axle do you have?

work on a transfer case skid, gas tank skid, and sliders. Then some recovery points.

If you have more money after that go with a c8.25 in the rear or better yet if you can find a d44 go for that.

IMO those rocker guards would be a much better investment then an intake. If your that worried about your intake just go buy another filter and call it a day

Wheel made by cragar, very popular in the offroad community for there durability and price. Google them for a pic, I don't know how to link you to them. Maybe someone will chime in.
