What are your next few mods lingering in your noggin?
You know, the mods you think about before you fall asleep at night, daydream at work, ect 
My next few mods that linger in my brain that sends me to the Internet to do research on.
1. New 1 7/8" rings from Fourtreks.
Moving my Hi-Lift jack from the factory rack to the front of the ARB bumper.
Lower center of gravity is my primary purpose for changing locations of the rings.
2. Blue Torch Fab Optima Battery Tray
Members KD7NAC_07FJ and Chewey46 both have the tray, although it takes a little extra bit of modifications.
3. Safari snorkel distributed through ARB USA
Bottom of the page at the time of this posting.
Although not yet quite out, it will be here before to long.
This will be used mainly for the dust I encounter whilst offroad, not for water crossings.
4. Still want to relocate the ARB fridge from on top of the cargobox to the top of the left rear seat when in the down position.
These are at the forefront now on my list of things to do.

Lockers and 4.88 Gears,I stay up and dream about lockers, i can even hear the air compressor making the noise to lock the lockers.
2.5 inch lift also, Got to find a good lift with decent articulation
and sliders! I'm way behind on the mods list, poor college student... but hopefully in about 3 years ill be moving into a house with a killer garage

Lingering in my noggin? How about lingering in my garage - waiting for slightly cooler weather.
In the garage:
ARB compressor
Rear diff with ARB that I will be installing 4.88's on
Tundra 199mm brakes
Stainless Steel front brake lines
Polk front 6.5" component speakers
---
in the noggin:
Waiting on another local YT'er to remove his front diff with ARB & 4.88's (hopefully I still have dibs)
Cargo box with sleeping platform and dual 10" subs
Second battery with cutout switch
Hi Lift and shovel mounts for my factory rack
aux lighting
fuel tank skid

I'd like to finish building my stereo, repaint the trim, finish removing my badges, and build a custom grille. I'd also like to either get some new 18" wheels, lexus wheels, or paint the stockers...I'd like to get a CB and build a GPS or navigation system into the dash, then remodel the center consol to hold a couple of drinks...

1)Have the stock pressure bent pipe between my exhaust manifold and cat ripped out and replaced with a 2" mandrel bent 304 s/s pipe to help increase flow and throttle response/torque (probably not much but something) to compliment my 2" Borla mandrel bent catback.
2) New O2 sensor to help restore power and fuel economy - not really a mod but...
3) I'm scheduled in late Sept. to have my front right & left fenders removed and replaced with fiberglass ones and painted to match stock by Toyota fiberglass in Penticton BC.
4) Contemplating what I am going to do to get more power to help with towing a boat down the road and going up reasonable passes loaded with camping gear. Thinking about either a) Advancing timing b) Cams, or least preferable c) Headers

Cutting off the front clip and tubing out the exo with all the things that go along with that (moving stuff)
-moving batteries
-moving fuse boxes
-extending wiring and getting rid of useless junk
-electric fan

It never ends until you die or sell the rig.
