where to start: 87 4runner Man vs. 89 4runner Auto

so i posted a while back about stick or auto.
and i couldnt decide so i bought one of each
87 4runner stick and 89 4runner auto both with removable tops.
so the question is what should i do first?
there is lots of mud up here in northern Alberta
so im thinking winch then lockers then tires?
any thoughts?
also what do i have to do to properly seal my electrical from water? i am planning on needing a snorkel...
thanks

here is a good thread to check out on modifactions:
https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f120...mation-121264/
nice score getting one of each

water mods: no real clue but getting the ECU mounted up higher-maybe behind the glove box, right now probably down on lower right kick panel. electric fan with a manual switch so you don't propeller it through your radiator...tons more to do...

don't forget to raise your breathers on your trans, differentials, TC...they can get hosed too
