For sure my LIFT...I love the stance.
$140 bucks and 30 minutes to self-install.
Bart, I just got to say, your rims are awesome, they look great.

Desert Khaki all the way. Do It!

Thanks. I love those rims. I never get tired of looking at them on my VX...
Its funny, I once saw another truck running the Teflon Chambers.....and they just didn't work. These were made for black VXes for sure!

Everything I have put on my VX has taken away performance or gas mileage except for the 4.77 gears. The gears have recouped both performance and gas mileage so I gotta go with the gears as my favorite. Cost: so far, loss of sleep, lots of fluid, $1150 plus a road trip. I replaced the incorrectly installed pinion seal but I still need to pull the front diff again to replace the outer pinion bearing that was incorrectly preloaded. And BTW, there IS a tool for doing it correctly but I am not sure you can rent it or not. So a shop would NOT be guessing as I was once told. DO NOT attempt to guess the preload on the pinion! This mod has been a p.i.t.a. so my favorite upgrade is also my least favorite.Go figure!

I would like a built-in screen (not a flip up) w/ nav. BUT, since I haven't figured out how to do this yet, I don't have any mods except my sunroof which I will say is great! ......it was free for me though.

Lets see... I'm going to go with my audio system as my favorite of all the mods that I've done so far.
There are many runner-ups: the titanium VX grill badge, the lift, the Yakima rack, Tone's door popper, Tone's hitch
But I'm pretty sure my favorites will ultimately be two projects that are still in the planning / parts acquisition phase: a diesel engine swap and a 4.77 gear swap.

Supercharger; because in years past I never had the nerve (or the $$$) to modify an engine....especially one that is still under factory warranty!
The blower plus the cold air intake mod has made every roadtrip that much more rewarding. As Tone has said before....it makes the VX perform like it should have from the factory!
