Basic upgrades for light off roading

Basic upgrades for light off roading
I think I might get a K&N kit, but I've read a lot of reviews about whistling noise. Plus I want mid-grade shocks and coil-overs... or whatever would be best. Putting on BF all terrians... not increasing SIZE of tire or LIFTING the truck at all with a kit.

Anyone have any suggestions on mid-grade shocks and coilovers...
Also thinking about putting a hypertech programmer on it... would it be worth it?
I'm going to check my exhaust in the morning... I know it's not stock because it's got some rumble to it lol...
My MPG is 14-15 depending on how heavy I'm on the gas

I'm googling it and can't find anything that says it's already cold air intake?

I would suggest either an SCT tuner or a PHP Gryphon (or Edge conversion). Once you get into the Classifieds section, there's a lot of used tuners and/or group buys regularly.
Loads of folks like Bilstein 5100s or Fox 2.0s.

The Bilstein 5100's show up as a front and rear lift shock. I found them on Bilsteinlifts.com... I don't know if that's a reputable site or if the shocks would even fit my truck. (no lift)
I bought a oem replacement K&N filter so I don't have to waste time with a kit.. *thanks for the heads up.
Researching tuners tomorrow.

How would it get oil on the sensor? The one I bought is simply remove and replace.

You also need to RE-OIL those filters every so often.
However on our trucks in stock configuration the MAF is before the filter, if you bought a CAI kit with a K&N it would get on the MAF.
I personally would just run a regular paper filter, I think they clean better and I don't like that oil crap.

Because they are OILED filters and some of the oil gets through and into the engine.
