If you had $ 2000 to spend to upgrade your current truck, other than tires and wheels....what would be your top 5 upgrades.

[tmf6902]

Sun-roof

 

or

 

invest it till i had enough for a turbo or a super charger

 

or

 

Air raid spacer....and $1950 for dinner and drinks

[major]

Mile Marker 12,000lb hydraulic winch

Grille guard / mount

Ham radio

Center console area rifle mount

AR-15

 

Did I spend too much?

[MS3DALE]

A "NAV" system with 6-disc changer!!!

[Wingnut]

Chain steering wheel, fuzzy dice, curb feelers, and a flux capacitor baby!

 

Most of that stuff can be bought from our site sponsors, but you'll have to talk to tmf6902 about the capacitor, they're pretty rare, and I understand he's the one with the hookup.

 

And always remember the immortal words of Bubb-Rub. "The whistle goes: woo-wooooo!". And that's what every Chevy needs....The woo-wooooo.

 

 

Seriously though, it really depends on what type of person you are, and what type work/recreation you do with your rig.

 

For $2000, you can do quite a bit.

 

1. For the electronic/widget/bass-head...DVD entertainment, full-on custom stereo, etc.

2. For the off-road enthusiast....Lift, winch, brush guard, lockers, this list could be pages long.

3. For the performance enthusiast... Port/polish heads, install some headers, a cam, a tune, and BANG! ZOOM! TO THE MOON!

4. Or, you could probably get a pretty nifty paint job for 2k or less.

All motor baby, the allison can handle it.

 

I am more about go than show.

 

air intake

cam

roller rockers

exhaust

headers

bowl and port job with some neck reilf valves

 

Currently only about, $980 into the motor on mine. of couse the head work would put you over the 2000 but in the need for power, I think a little over won't hurt.

I forgot all about Bubba Rubb and Lil' Sis. You're right though, every Chevy does need a like woo-woooooooo

[Haulin' 8.1]

Really usefull: spray in bed liner, reciever hitch, tool box, HD floor mats.

 

Needed badly: self powered sub-woofer, tint.

 

Power up: K&N drop in, power programmer, low restriction muffler.

 

That's more than five but where I would start on it with $2000. Shop carefully and you should still have change.

[Chevyfreek]

* Westers Custom Tune

* Rhino Liner

* New Shocks (Factory Shocks are terrible on the HD's)

* Synthetics Fluids Everywhere

* Air Lift Springs w/ On-Board Compressor

 

This would be a good start...

[JimG]

1. Westers Custom Tune - without a doubt this is one great mod

2. Vara-Ram Air Intake System - assuming their MPG gains are accurate

3. New rims

4. New tires

5. Rancho RS9000 shocks and the onboard control kit

 

Probably blew the 2Gs already but that's what I'd love to do to my truck.

[Truckman031]

3 inch suspension lift

BFG All-Terrains

Maybe some American Racing Wheels

Brush guard

 

Slightly over $2000

LUCKY13 WOULD TAKE IT ALL TO PEP BOYS !!!!

[atomoverride]

top 5 upgrades.... well right now all the ones I want to do are expensive. I would say:

 

cowl hood

roll pan

sun roof

 

or save up an additional 1600 and get a supercharger from magna.

[Mighty HD]

1. Nelson's Tune

2. Line-X the bed

3. E-Lockers for the Front/Rear --if they'd ever make them

4. 16k Warn Winch & a 6" lift

5. Silverado SS Gauges

 

A bit over budget but i#3, and 4 is a wet dream..lol

[Firetiger(MN)]

Suncoast III upgrade for the Allison.

 

$2000 don't quite cover it though, but it'd be a good start.
