What is a good first mod, I have 280 miles in it now. I was thinking exhaust? What kind, what size, ect, ect. An also the best place in the houston area to get a brush guard and N fab steps.

[Rodslinger]

Exhaust and gauges are always good first mods. Size on the exhaust I'd recommend 4" and Tractor Wheel and Frame has pretty good prices on brush guards - look into the Iron Horse. They're MUCH stouter than the name brand for a ton cheaper price because they're made locally.

Like Slinger said, Ranchhand bumpers are about $1400 give or take for front and rear and Iron Horse will run you half that. It looks like Houston boys are taking over! Its about time.

Oh and welcome aboard, I warn you, its addicting here.
