REGRETS....
We all have them. What's are some regrets you guys got about your jeep? My biggest regret would be not leaving stock. It drove like a charm in the high way. Now I can't even hit 45mph until the death wobble comes in. Not to mention all the money I spend on crappy lift parts (first time newbee). I'm in the border line of wether to sell the jeep and buy a normal beater or continue with the build. I miss driving in the high way =( What are YOUR regrets?

I regret spending the time and money on a JCR one ton steering kit only to have it cause severe bump steer and death wobble. I went back to the stock setup with a drop pitman arm and my ZJ drives like a dream. I also regret having a sunroof. It doesn't leak, but it doesn't open either.

Not buying one in nicer condition. Mine was in such bad shape mechanically when I bought it it has just been a headache... I've spent enough money just fixing it, that if I had spent the $ on buying a nicer one to begin with I could have done more mods/upgrades vs just fixing it.

Probably more... I refuse to total it up, but I think, NOT including the purchase of the vehicle, and the FREE lift kit, I have over $6k invested into it, and outside of a set of LED lights that cost me

Selling the XJ Laredo I bought new in 1990. It was a fully loaded 4 dr. I wanted a 2 dr. at the time but with kids on the way a 4 dr. was the way to go. I now have 1995 2 dr.
