....and I do not mean Moderators :o

What is/are your favorite mod/mods you have made to your rig? This might be good for ideas to other for theirs. Maybe even a description of what and how you did it (with pictures maybe).

Does it really make much of a difference? If so, what exactly is the biggest difference.

Yeah it def made a difference. Throttle lag is gone, noticeable power increase and the biggest difference is the trans tuning. It has nice solid shifts and the towing tune has helped in the towing department too. I plan on sending it in for custom tuned eventually.

I assume you have the 5.7 motor? I have the 4.6 and use the Diable Predator Tune that comes with it. The lag is there, and I know nothing about tuning to make it more aggressive.

I think you mean 5.4 not 5.7

Two simple and fairly cheap mods I like are the rear wheel well liners, and the USB2 mods. IMO, good bang for the buck.........

The liners make the truck look finished and are easy to clean. The USB2 takes away the light flashing dongle hanging out the dash. I like my little 8 gig thumb drive, about 1600 songs. I sticky back velcroed it to the back side of the glove box.

Where did you get the liners, and what do they look like?

I have a 95 Eddie Bauer, and have to say my favorite mod sitar was adding a fuel catalyst, this thing has seemingly added/ with support from a throttle body spacer, roughly 4mpg. Which is huge for a 95!!

Well the only thing I've done so far is a K&N High Flow Filter, and Husky Liner floor mats. I love em both! My Dad has had Huskys in his for about a year, and as soon as I bought mine I knew I was gonna get some! Looking to put a Banks Ram Air Intake, and Banks Monster Exhaust, as well as Banks Headers on it.

I did cab clearance lights and the mirror blinker mod that makes your front reflectors on the mirrors led blinkers. The blinker mod only costs about $20 for the LEDs, but looks like a million bucks when you are done!433

I haven't really done much for mods other than putting the brow on the windshield. If I had to pick my favorite though I would say it has to be the egg shells I put under my gas pedal to save up for the mods. Lol.

Hmmm, Well seeing as I bought my truck modded, id have to say that my favorite Mod that the previous owner has done is the 2 1/2" leveling kit and 35s. That is one thing that bothered me about the burgundy truck, it was not modded at all and i couldnt drop alot of mods into it.

The favorite mods I have done is the HIDs and these that will be on Wednesday
