I think the next modification was the 2.25" Rocky Road Lift:

The original lifts came with the poly spacers but do to a high number of failures they have been replaced with metal spacers.

I drove out to Orange County, California and picked up two additional cross bars for my roof and installed the Yakima Mega Warrior Rack with extension:
This was WITHOUT the extension:

And with it:

I found a great deal of 5 wheels & tires removed from a Jeep Wrangler:

And using Spidertrax 1.5" spacers I installed them on the Commander:

Somewhere in there I added four lights to the rack up top:

And a visor in front of the Sunroof.

I added the billet thresh-hold tags:

The headliner is hanging and the wires you see are when I installed the OEM VES system (purchased the player & monitor on eBay and then the harness and bracket at the dealer)
