Default 2018 Magnetic XLT 4x4 5.0 - Hail to the Dief Build

Picked up my new 2018 Magnetic XLT 4x4 5.0L Sport a couple of weeks ago. So far I am enjoying it. Don't have a lot mods planned as of yet but have a few on the go.

Mods so far(If you can call them that):
- Tinted front windows
- Line-X Spray-in Bed-liner
- WeatherTech Floor Mats (Ordered)

Next up:
- ReadyLift 2.25" Levelling Kit (Ordered)
- ReadyLift 3" Block Kit (Ordered)
- Raptor Rims with the 315/70/17 K02s

Future Mods
Tonneau Cover of some variety
Replace the grill (hopefully some new selections after Sema)
Aftermarket head lights
Leather Interior
Upgrade all the suspension, just not sure what direction yet which is why I am just going with a basic levelling kit approach.

I think that would be about it, after having a Jeep for couple of years this mod list seems kinda tame.



Already have my Raptor Wheels ready to go:

I also have Fox 2.0 rear shocks on backorder so those will go on in a few more weeks.
