[QUOTE="Ballermaris, post: 423695, member: 18206"] One of the things I would do is to ensure that the speedo has been calibrated properly. Run a VIN check to see what the original gearing was. It might be 3.21, and if so the taller tires are going to cause you some issues especially in the speeding ticket department. Some things to think about, are upgrading to lockers. It will cost a pretty penny but worth it. 4WP has some stores in Florida and would be a goto place. Look at $5800-6000 for electric locking. Autolockers can be cheaper, but there is no guarantee of immediate locking. The next upgrade is a K&N Cold Air Intake, which gives you a bit of horsepower boost and also an MPG boost too. Noted in the photo, it looks like she is winch ready. Get a 9500 to the 12000-pound unit. In Florida, you will need it eventually. Interior wise, if the sound systems are a bit on the OMG this thing s***s, consider the Alpine X409, with a subwoofer. Ensure to order the optional Sirius Module for the Alpine, generally available from Best Buy. CB radio is an option for off-roading, I went a wee bit overboard on my rig, it punches out to around 15-20 miles because of mods. Overall look at upgrading to LED lights if you don't have them.
