If you think 2.5 inches of lift and 33 inch tires are big enough right now, you will be wishing you went with 4 inches of lift (or SOA) and 35+ inch tires within one year. Do yourself a favor and skip the 2.5/33 step. Good Luck!

For me it is:
(1) taking the 90degree angle zerk fittings off the tierod ends when going to a larger tire and replacing them with the shorter regular zerks.(free)
(2) Upgrading the stock ignition coil to an MSD Blaster 2. (35 bucks)
(3) Replacing headlamps with Sylvania Xtravisions (28 bucks)
(4) Dynamat Xtreme (ya it cost a bunch but works great.) (I am currently testing the PeelandSeal from Lowes)
(5) Reflectix (as you might remember I have only tried this recently for heat deflection and it works awesome) (20bucks)
(6) Anything I take apart using bolts/nuts gets antiseize (1 buck a tube)
(7) Peal and Seal. Like 12 bucks for a 25' roll and Lowes. Used inplace of Dynamat Xtreme.
Im sure there is more... just cant think of anything else right now.
