-undercoated majority of undercarriage
-BRAND NEW 4.9 straight 6 crate engine
-New clutch
-redid all brake lines and new master cylinder
-bed lined bed as well as installed plastic bedliner.

Forgot also got rid of the cat and redid the whole exhaust..nothing but a flow master 40 series..honestly wasn't the muffler I wanted at first but it actually sounds badass.
Bills have put a slow pace on things, although I do have many evil plans in my head haha.
In the future I'd love to put dual shock brackets on all four corners(yes those exist).
As well nothing but the best...fox reservoir shocks all 8 of em..about $1600 or so damage lol...and upgrade my lack luster single steering stabilizer for a double.
Found a polyurethane coil spring dampener(adds one inch lift in front but designed to soften ride) plan to buy those and toss either an add a leaf or 1 inch taller block in the rear and upgrade to 37x14.50s and much needed finally get those damn extended radius arms and maybe even rock sliders to brace the frame and protect her.
WAAAAYYYYY down the line, fuel injected coyote engine
