Between now and late Feb:
2" lift (Tundra front, probably OME 906 rear)
Remove running boards
Make some custom front mud flaps
Make the RR Diff Lock switch light up
Aftermarket headunit with AUX port to connect my IPOD
I want all of this done before the Yotatech Death Valley trip in late March.

Within the month:
STC soft top
Herculine interior
Install sliders
Within the next couple:
Painless aux fuse block and a complete cleaning/replacing of all crappy PO wiring!
12VoltGuy dual battery setup to replace the home-brew crap dually setup from PO.
New Batteries
Within the year (hopefully!):
GM alternator swap
Chevy swap
Rears up front swap
Hi-Steer
New rattle can job!
Fabricate new bumpers.
I would like to say gears and 36" swampers, but I am not sure how I am getting the money to do what I already listed!

I was thinking about the .50 engine block upgrade. Apparently, you stick this .50 cal. round through the block at high speed, and it solves all your problems for good!

This month
4 steel rims for 3rd month
Next 2 months
1" body lift
Manual Hubs
3 months
33' Durango MT
4 months
2.5" exhaust w/ hi-flow cat and flowmaster muffler
Locker - just need to figure out front or rear
Any suggestions?
Application - DD - some mudding/some rock crawling (really like the rocks)/some snow wheeling/ sand, stones and tight twisty trails
5 months
custom soft top w/ pickup gate
add new backup lights (original ones ar in the gate - I need to add some to the tube bumper)
Whenever I have time
ditch the front bumper and install the homemade tube bumper I have, remount my rear bumper and rework the hitch (also add clevis hook mounts) Much needed body work - snorkel
In the middle of all of these mods - do some mall repairs (reconnect the rear heat - lower balljoint - replace passanger side calliper - replace 2 dash lights - maybe have alternator rebuilt to HI-amp if possable - and a bunch of other stuff....)
6 months
Make a roof rack - to accomodate HI-Lift and more lights
