It's great to see someone building a trail rig while the're young. I wish I started a lot earlier in life.

A lot of us post our mods in our signature at the bottom of the post, although space is limited and we can't always list everything.

My first mod was rocker bars (boulder bars, rock sliders) because I wanted to protect my truck from damage and also have a place to use a high lift jack. Manual hubs were the next mod. They reduced wear on my cv axles and maybe I gained one mpg. A suspension lift will be much easier than a body lift. The suspension lift, new shocks, and larger tires were next. If you haven't already, check out Independent 4X.
