    You bought a PRO, you don't touch it. If you want a desert runner, you sell the truck and buy an SR and build a long travel truck.

    I wasn’t thinking about a long travel kit I was thinking more of a mid travel kit nothing to crazy. But I wouldn’t change the suspension on it until it’s fully payed off for some time lol. Just trying to get some ideas

    It's your truck, the sky is the limit! Portals are the dream! That's the holy grail of lifts in my opinion.

    Honestly lights are a waste of money unless u off road at night . I would invest in a winch ,bumpers and rock sliders .
