Default WISH LISTS...what's on yours?

OK, I thought it would be good fun to discuss what's on your "Rover Wishlist," as far as modifications go, for the specific type of off-roading, overlanding, or mall-cruising you do. (k

Leave the "no more ticks" and "no more leaks" out of this thread, and keep it as 'realistic' as you can

Here's My Short List :

GBR Front Drive-Shaft
T-Case with CDL
Roof Top Tent
MAXTRAX Sand Ladders
ARB Compressor or On-board Air

Noted, thanks. I want to start doing some more camping at the beaches on the west coast, and figure these (or something) would be handy when going out solo.

What about the waffle boards, you heard anything on those? I want to go light as possible.
