steel bumper then add a winch, 33" tires fit on the 05 stock i think, depending on the wheeling you wanna do, go for some mudders if your gonna be doing lots of wheeling and playing in alot of mud cool

You don't need to lift the truck to put 33's on it. It's just fine stock. You might have some minor rubbing in the front depending on the tire that you go with so you might have to take a dremel and trim some away. You can't lif the truck yet as there is no lift out yet. Calmini is taking orders if you want one. SLR is also working on one.

You can get a front bumper from either Calmini or Shrockworks. I'd go with the Shrockworks one that will let you add a winch later personally. That's going to set you back some $. For the tires I see my response above this one. Check out the 2005 general forum for a lot of discussion that we have gone on over there.

We've been talking about lights, lifts, wheels and other things. You can probably get a lot of ideas. Also since you don't have any armor under it you might want to get some skids under it when they become available as well. You want to get some rock sliders as well to keep from damaging your body. Hope that helps.

You should decide what the truck can't do, that you want it to, and then mod to get the capability you want.

Mods for the sake of mods can use up $ that you might wish to have back one day to buy something more useful.

I recommednd a build-up pathway...a sequential approach that gradually gets the X to where you want it, without wasting money on intermediate mods that you won't keep, etc.

Figure out what you plan on using the X for, think about your level of committment to acheive it, and then plan out how to get there in a step by step fashion...

Thank you. Puncuation makes it easier to read and understand.

Decide what you want to do with your truck first (mudding, rock crawling, forest trails, camping, biking, soccer, etc). All the ideas that were posted are good ones if that is what you want to do. Decide first and than ask for help, it makes it a lot easier for input from people.
