Stuck on DFC (Dead F'n Center) on next mod.
Check the signature. Thinking about a couple of different options, help. My budget on this round is about $350ish or less.
1) Exhaust- make it sound better... have to relocate EVAP probably, .. What one?
2) Bilstien 5100 shocks, I have X shocks on extension brackets.. They are ok but highway bumps suck. Could stick it out but hmmm.
3) Suspension is dialed in pretty good but do I need LCA or something else? I have used tires so wear is not a big deal but what about the next round. I really don't know what if anything I need. Have bilstien SS.
4) Smittybilt tailgate storage and Tuffy conceal drawer, something else fun.
5) Snorkel... Looks cool, not much function for me, but still nice.. fun install
6) New driveshaft, boot is ripped on Front but is running fine
7) You tell me.
Overall I offroad about every 6 weeks or so. Onroad I'm not over sensative to MPG or anything like that. Just want it manageable enough that the Wife can drive it safely on the rare occassion that she does. Help me out!

How about Buying a flo-pro muffler( think flowmaster 40 series, and a 90 degree mandrel bent elbow, and building your own exhaust for sub $50, re using the slip joint and tailpipe sections of the existing exhaust. Then add a Superchip to make the most of the K&N and exhaust. Then resell the procal to fund #4 on your list.. WIN, WIN, and a little more WIN?

Great Feedback, LCA's, any recommendations on brand? Wife says the steering is "loose" compared to her '06 GC. What else can I fix?

Shocks are a good option, anyone else have an opinion? Will Lca's help with alignment and future tire wear? Not really worried about the current set.

This is a no brainer. If you have a part that is broken, then that should be your first priority. Don’t for get to grease your new drive shaft every six months or more if you go in sand or water.

Shocks, LCA's and F.Driveshaft are all in the running based on feedback. Anyone else.
This is not the last round of Mods, at all. I just like to take baby steps in the money I spend. Anyone say just put on a snorkel or exhaust and have fun?
