    Led interior lights, seat heaters (all four!), and the interior mirror that dims tells the temp and direction. These are the things I have done that are the best add ons and I couldn't live without now. One piece drive shaft will be the next (I am sure.)

    @ImMrYo mirror riser definitely tops the list. 265/75s for the speedo correction.

    Winch, front and rear lockers. I hardly use them, but its reassuring knowing they are there.
    Oh and mine is a sport, there was no factory rear locker.

    Engine, I think it would defeat the purpose if I had to push the truck every where I wanted to go. Walking would be much easier.

    I dont have a particularly good before shot, but Im sure you know what that looks like haha

    Using the stock mirror swivel points, you still have a good amount of adjustability up/down

    It's tough to pick only one!

    -HPTuners, bar none THE BEST money spent on the truck! Makes it drive how it should have!! My truck is all stock and I noticed a vast improvement in daily driving, smoother/more linear throttle input, the ability to remove the SAIS system completely, future tuning potential if mods are added, transmission shift point improvements, stays in 4th or 5th gear torque converter lock-up on hills longer so it isn't so shift happy all the time, cruise control (although it does not change cruise control logic, it does change throttle and transmission logic) and a bit of a noticeable power bump.

    -Birdawg Mirror Riser is probably my favorite cheap one, makes right side visibility much better!

    -Adding the Detroit Tru-Trac auto locker in the rear was a good investment too.

    -3rd gen TRD Off-Road suspension, for $200 its hard to beat the improved ride quality (at least on a TRD Sport) and 1.5"-ish lift/level in the front.

    -Retrofitted headlights was an awesome upgrade as well, but that can be really expensive and/or a daunting task for some.
