What to do with a LITTLE extra $$
Ok so many of you have been very helpfull with the thread I started about offroad lights, a few of you mentioned that I should put the money towards something else. So I thought I'd get some quick opinions before I actually buy my procomp lights. Here's the current set up-
96 limited,
no locker,
removed runningboards,
truflow filter, isr, deckplate,
diff breather extension,
new headlights (hella 55/100) upgraded headlight harness,
and some random recovery gear.
So what would YOU do it you had about $100 that you were going to put into the car...yes I could save up but I'm a starving college student and well cash doesn't add up fast...

i think it always helps having your motor breathe better im pretty sure a picked up a few pony's and a little better gas mileage and if you look at the stock muffler you will see what im talking about

Ya the stock muffler is freakin huge and i'm sure after 150k on it it is pretty full of crap, i'm sure it couldn't hurt, probably free up a few horsies
I have been wondering why so many people have cb's. I don't understand why they are so great I guess, I could see how nice they would be if you were out with a group of guys but otherwise...just messin with truckers on the highway? haha

well if you ever go off road with a group or even one other rig, having a CB is a must. It really helps communicating trail obstacles, problems, stop points, laughs, etc. Also, say your broke down (alone) with no cell phone service...a CB could potentially be a life saver.

donate $10 sounds probable once my paypal is workin again. Floormats...naa mine are still in good shape no need. I plan to buy a new bugguard, probably from someone on here once he gets back to me-my old one got ripped off at the carwash if you saw that thread. With whatever I have left over I will invest in some lights or a new tire, I have 1 nearly bald tire, don't ask me how. Lights will be 8" procomps from a guy on ebay. I am trying to decide if I should buy his harness which includes a switch and relay or if I should just make my own. His costs ~$25.
