    Skids, Maxtrax, Airflow Snorkel, or URD MAF sensor...

    Which ever I could find the best deal on first.

    I just ordered a CB antenna spring and Maglight mount.

    Great choices, are snorkels the best type of intake compared to CAIs?

    Thanks, I am always working towards something lol

    I had a CAI for a while and it made a little difference but I sold it as soon as another member hydro locked his engine. Snorkels are good for rain, pools, river crossings or heavy dust. Safari is making a new model for our truck but I don't like their long tubes down the fender. Airflow America makes a nice one but it is a little more bulky.

    Oh, I forgot the major one... I would get a High Clearance rear bumper over any of those.

    New bumper is a good one too. I like the idea of a snorkel and they are kinda growing on me, but your right i dont like the long tube down the side. It would be nice if they had some low profile ones that dont stand out as much.

    Congrats Beavis!

    As far as future purchases, I am very happy with the exhaust and Arb/Winch.

    Althought, I am considering dumping my exhaust by the axle since the piping drops down a lot after that. Once I get a HC bumper that exhaust will be the only thing hanging low.

    If you don't draw blood, you're doing it wrong!
    I can vouch for this too! My ARB proved it's worth on that trip for sure...now she's as scarred up as the rest of my truck :eek:

    And congrats on the babay Beavis!!! Another lil Beavis running around :goingcrazy:

    Done their own or pay someone to do it? I know AWilson013 has done his own and it turned out well but you can pay for them too.

    Truckgirl has the retrofit with halos, at least that is what her thread has posted; she stated that one of the halos is out last week.

    Have her speak to the lameness/greatness of the retrofit.
