An infinite number of small mods.
I just bought an old Jeep Wrangler. It needed a couple parts replaced (rear view mirror, seat belt), so I got a hold of a Quadratec catalog. Holy smokes. There are an infinite number of small mods/improvements/doohickeys available at all prices. "Would you like chrome on your tow hook?"
And I thought the repairs would be slow water torture to the wallet.
For now I'll restrict myself to a Torx socket and a bottle of stop leak.

You have no idea....... Jeeps are the worst........>
I have a '97 Wrangler with a 5.5" lift, 35's, full floating warn axles, detroit lockers, and an uncountable number of "small mods" - which will never leave you with a free day without thinking you should be working on it Good luck and have a blast with it - they are a ton of fun
(and you'll need a full set of those torx sockets!)

I have thus far resisted the full set.
I got #30 and #40 torx drill bits for $3. Now I need to hunt down a #50 so I can replace the seat belt.
If I don't have the bits, I can't install more stuff.

No, I'm not looking at yours. Then I'll have to improve mine. :)
It's a 1991 YJ on its third paint color, now Earl Scheib Matador Red. Rebuilt 5 speed and transfer case. Original 4.0 liter with 161k or so. Interior is nouveaux bed liner.
