    I would say a lift kit (front and rear) is the most important mod. I think everything else is secondary. Voice your opinions.

    Wheels and Tires... A lifted truck on stock tires looks terrible IMO..

    I like the free mods like the fog light mod or rear locker mod. Or the free rear leaf TSB.

    D-rings, your lift may come in handy twice a year, but the D-rings are useful once a week

    I don't think there is ONE important mod. When you get the new tires and wheels you got to have the lift! After the lift you need intake and exhaust to power your through the dirt and snow. Oh crap! I need some brighter lights I will get an HID or LED kit... All mods are important.

    Hot female passenger.

    It doesn't matter if you're rolling in a '92 Geo or an '11 550 AMG, no one can debate the coolness factor of your vehicle when you have a knock out bombshell in the passenger seat next to you.

    A stupid insanely loud stereo has always been the first on my priority list since I was 16, i'm 38 now. I just can't listen to a crappy sounding stock radio with volume that's a joke, i'm a music lover. :)
