What's Your Next Upgrade??

I was just wondering what is the next thing on your "to-do" list? What was the last thing?

I am going to upgrade the stock headlights to H4 lamps. My last was adding a WH Bikini Top.




Thanks

New painless harness, H4 headlights, and all new autometer gauges. Waiting for a little warm weather combined with a few days off work.

In the last couple of months it's gotten new bling alloy beadlocks and hydro-assist steering. What's next? Time to wheel it hard for several months and rebuild more stuff next winter.

69 narrowed 8 inches, locked F&R, big tires, EFI, Atlas, winch, blah, blah, blah

The last thing that I did was rebuild my speedo along with a complete dash remodification (still in progress). I did/am doing this to pass time while saving for my next project, which is the 9" 3rd member build:

Nodular Carrier Case
Daytona Pinion support
ARB Locker
4.56 Yukons
1350 Yoke.

That will complete the rear end.

Make a "waterproof" air filter so I can go fast through deep water. Tune my carb and put 35's on. I'm working on getting some money together for a front ARB locker, 35 spline axles w/ox u-joints. Fix some minor body damage.

I am just trying to keep up with repairs at this point. My last fix was a slave cylinder for my ZF. I was hoping to get the STaK, but funds aren't there. It is still high on the list, but I need to work thru some wiring/electrical issues. I also want to modify my cage to allow me to attach a hi-lift/shovel etc to it. Oh, Santa brought me BC's ZF mount, but I gotta re-do my exhaust to get that to work.

<<off topic>>Anyone know approx. how much $$ it would take to hire someone to rewire my bronco from headlight to tail-light? <</off topic>>

Alternator and dual battery setup is next on my list. Sick and tired of not having enough juice with all my goodies running.

Family Cage and Hurculier in the tub. Repaint door panels and fab new rear quarter panels. Those will get the liner too.

What's next?
