I will start looking for some axles? Good idea to do all the other mods before I get a chip. Will I need a steering arm for a 4" lift? I think I will start with a new filter and a throttle body spacer. There is a cooler of some sort in front of my radiator. I don't know if it is for my oil or my tranny. Is a finned aluminum tranny pan worth the worth the money? Should I keep the tunnel thing on my air filter? Thanks for the help.


The big black one is an oil cooler.....lessee if I have a picture.......

.... the black cooler that runs from the drivers headlight almost to the hood release lever is a stock oil cooler out of an '89 Sub.

I ran a 4" lift on my pickup without a steering arm. You lose a pretty significant amount of turning radius while turning to the left. (Kinda like driving a Superduty.) It's not bad and I got used to it, but I didn't drive mine everyday, either.

Tunnel thing? = snorkel?
