I bought the truck in late july early august of 2016. I cleaned the interior up and took out the seats. I installed my pioneer head unit from my old truck. Then in September I put bar's stop leak in it and killed the heads off. So new heads are coming with new headers.
What I plan:
Engine I
Odessa heads
1.7 ratio rockers ( Harland sharp s70037)
pacesetter shorty headers
hughes air gap EFI intake
53 mm throttle body
more to think of*
Ignition II
Taylor 8mm ignition wires (Taylor Cable - 74176)
Bosch Spark Plugs (Bosch-7962)
ACCEL - Distributor Cap ( ACCEL-120329)
more to think of*
Exterior III
hell bent steel leveling kit ( HBS-110-200-000)
cooper stt pro 33's ( 33X12.50R15LT)
more to think of*
Interior IV
seat covers (not sure yet)
Bazooka NOS8 8-Inch Nitrous Bottle ( 8 inch sub)
Boss Amp (already have)
infinity 6x9's
infinity 6.5's ( replace the rears)
Kick Panel speakers (5.25 infinity)
Pioneer head unit ( in the truck)
more to think of*

Hope this gets to be a fun build! pics will be added later

In September I made a run to the Panama City pick n pull and pulled mirrors from a 97 1/2 ton because the 98+ mirrors were ugly and didn't work.

The overhead console didn't work so I chunked it and the seat belt timer is shot. Sad that dodge doesn't make them anymore so I have 1 of 2 choices either to go into the wiring harness and give a switched 12 volt power source to the seat solenoid and possibly have the seat belt not work. Or I can do a lap belt and just not worry with that stuff. Fl law dictates as long as I have a seat belt.

Bosch 7962s are a bad idea. Heat range 8 and WAY too cold unless you raise conpression or run boost and even a 7 is perfect for boost. They'll foul out with carbon and close the gaps
