Beginner Mods / Enhancements...

Since I am just beginning to make this a hobby... What are some good/easy to install mods I might start with? I am truly an amateur, having only changed my own air filter, brakes, and oil previously.

Any info would be great including sites to check out, advice, etc.
Thanks!

I did the deckplate mod pretty early on when I got addicted. As long as you have the right hole saw, it is easy.

good luck! (and go wolfpack! i'm an alum)

if you take your 4runner out in the backcountry and encounter alot of water then the rear diff breather is a good mod too Cheap and easy to do. You can do a quick search on it if you feel the need to do this one.

Never knew that was there.just put my own on.
The hardest part of modifying my runner is that i want to do everything NOW.I need to be patient.Because my wallet doesnt share my dream.
