I was thinking about making a "wish list" of mods I would like to do in the near future to my truck. It will be paid for in about 6 months and the mod bug is starting to Knaw away at me again.

So here is my list of 5 mod wishes I would like to do.

1. SCT livewire (to eliminate the A-pillar gauges) with custom tunes.
2. Stacks with no muffler or CAT.
3. Complete the front end to the '05 look.
4. 2008 center floor console
5. Get my door handles, tailgate handles, and tailgate repainted (starting to show some wear & tear.

So put up your "wish lists" of future mods you would like to do.
It doesn't matter if it's for your OBS, Excursion, 7.3, 6.0, IDI, etc.

Good question.

1. Wait until warranty runs out and install the best power adder at that time. I only use our truck to pull the 5th wheel, and later on will use it to pull our race car trailer, so the only need we have is for towing power. We ordered our truck from the factory with all the features we wanted, and after delivery we added mud flaps, rhino lining, 5th wheel hitch, 5th wheel tail gate, and axillary fuel tank, so we do not need to add anything else. Right now, it sits there looking lonely until it is needed again.

My truck is right where I want it. Too bad the injectors and glow plugs aren't. Its either a plunge for those items [ $$$:doh:] or get a new one. And start all over again. :lmao

1. Get my regulated return fuel system/ fuel pressure gauge/ lower gauge pod installed.

2. Remove and polish wheels, reinstall. (wash the truck too)

3. Head studs and gaskets (once the puking gets a little worse)

4. Replace my mystery clutch once it leaves me stranded :D

Of course that all will be once this backlog of work disappears :rolleyes:
