    None: remote start & security system, 3" rough country lift, Timbren towing leveler, HD Hawk drilled brakes ( awesome stopping power) , headers with dual flowmaster performance exhaust , Arb HD rap around bumper with 12,000 winch., undercoat protection, ...
    To make long story short , or Maybe in the case of this thread a short story long. I'm back . Not much on social media ( & that says it all). . Have 2009 trd v6 double cab, with 70,000 miles. From new to Paid off, & now starting to build. Got kill switch & remote start along with undercoat , when 1st purchased , & upgraded several times since 1st installed. Recently added ; ARB 4x4 accessories full front direct replacement steel bumper with full wrap around bull bars. Also motor alliance Viper VX 12,000 lb synthetic rope winch, LED bumper lights, & black billet steel grill. Got & absolutely love Hawk HD drilled front brakes. Great smooth stopping power. Love em. Saved my ass a coupla times already. Got 3" rough country lift. ( nice to look other trucks, SUV 's & van drivers in the eye ) . SSS MBRP catback high performance dual exhaust , & JBA coated headers. Haven't measured increased power yet, but it's very noticeable & sometimes surprising scarily . Oh & got my new leaf springs ( got recall letter bout month ago) installed today at dealer for free . Had to buy my own U- bolts , since I had truck lifted. Have Timbren kit for towing leveling . Weather Tech floor liners ( perfect fit) . & Westin Pro trax side running boards. After all that I still have my smooth luxury truck ride. Still hav my 16" michelins ( which I love, & actually still make truck look good). . Havn't decided on wheels yet but want some type of 33's or 18's all season radials, so my smooth ride doesn't change. By the way the truck is in near perfect condition. Many , many compliments . People even go out of their way to compliment. Very very satisfied with everything. The key is to do yor research.. Ask experts.,, get exact fit parts when possible. Many aftermarket dealers out there .
