Hello friends and fellow addicts.

Parts pile is slowly growing and I'm now in a position to make my next part purchase. The truck right now is a semi-mall runner as I'm currently starting a business and don't have loads of time to go hit the woods. I've got eibach pro truck lift kit on it right now which I plan on keeping for a year or two until I upgrade to fox. My powerstop truck and tow kit(rotors, calipers, pads) is sitting right next to me and my FN Bronze five star wheels will be shipped to me as soon as they're back in stock(end of the month hopefully). I've also recently done a deep satoshi mod with the FJ cruiser emblem and have a pioneer head unit other than that baby boi is stock.

SO, my small group of items to buy next are this...

SPC UCA(don't need right now)
Opt to off road headlights(don't feel like retrofitting myself)
URD catback exhaust system(mine has rusted through by the muffler)
AFE pro dry filter(don't need it but personally think it is a useful mod)
SS brake lines(don't need but makes sense to do it while i'm there doing brakes)
Re-do all speakers in the car(want it)
Aftermarket wheel liners(cant think of the name but like radpro or something?)

I'm setting my budget at the most expensive item on the list which is the exhaust around $700. So I can pair multiple items to get to that or just stay under.

Suggestions on these items or other things i may not have on the list that you think i should address or check.

My personal vote goes to upgrading the speakers, cause what's the point of a rig if you can't enjoy some good tunes in it, right?

As far as priorities go though:
-Everything else would probably be on the same level for me, cause UCA's aren't crucial for a 2" lift (and as you mentioned, you don't need them right now), plus the rest aren't really vital to the longevity of your rig - so you just have to decide which you want the most right now

And for suggestions on things you may not have on the list but should address or check:
-Honestly, IMO, at 165k miles, you don't have to much to worry about. '07s have the updated head gasket, so as long as you don't have any general maintenance to do (like oil change, wheel bearing replacement, etc), you're good to go
