Could be a tool, accessory, recovery gear, storage solution, or something completely unexpected.

Hood struts.
Under hood LED lighting.

Jeep Wrangler Rear Bolt On Shock Bracket Control Arm Skids (2018+, JL), actually had to use a rubber mallet to tap them into place, as they should fit, thanks!

That's a pretty solid combo.

Once you have hood struts, it's hard to imagine why they don't come that way from the factory

Nothing inspires confidence quite like a part that absolutely refuses to move once it's installed

I personally prefer the ability to lift the hood all the way back onto the windshield.

The popular Red Line Tuning ones can just pop off with no tools if you need full extension.

Sometimes you just need that full extension to get deep in there...

I second the Red Line struts.

Desert Does It seat jackers. Spendy, but completely changes the way you sit in the Jeep. Add in a dead pedal and you're still under $200 and, like the hood struts, are things that should come from the factory.

As was already stated the redlines easily pop off for when you need more room. I really like them but like you there is times when working on the engine it is nice to flop the hood all the way back for more room and more light.

Azuto cup holder liners. They match perfectly and still allow the light to shine in.

 

[TopGunViper]

At the top of the list:
Zogg door hangers and TopLift Pro hard top holder.

 

[Plumbean]

Mopar lower control arms for their 2 inch lift. $90 to fix the caster on my XR.

Close second would be the Quadratec dead pedal.

ACT clutch spring. I've driven manual transmission of various vintages half my life and couldn't manage the clutch on this thing new. Spring made it normal, no more gratuitous stalling. Best 11 bucks spent for sure.
