Next Mod On The List......

So I have some green backs coming my way very shortly and want some opinions on what my next mod should be? You can see on my sig the list of stuff done so far. Im not really a heavy trail guy yet (at least until I move back to NM) and I only have about 500 bucks to spend. Im torn between a performance mod or an exterior mod. I already have an appointment for the window tint!

Nothin wrong with the steelies! no sense in spending money on fancy wheels unless they are beadlocks.


Get the sliders. Protection is needed if you wheel.

Sliders FIRST! Everything else is just something added on later. Protect the underside before you start going into the engine and stuff.

Re: Next Mod On The List......

Kind of hard to suggest without knowing what you're going after. Seem like you really care about wheels...so wheels? You don't wheel it hard so maybe don't even need sliders or snorkel.

You don't look like you have enough heavy drawing electrical gear to need a dual battery.

Sliders are pretty important if you plan on wheeling. If not, then get any other coolest looking accessory.

And the steelies ROCK. Some times people don't know what style is and bash others that have it. Forget those fools.

x2. My sliders have already saved me from body damage. These should be high on anybody's list if they plan on wheeling.

Also it isn't on your list but if want to go out in groups, a CB is essential.
