- Newer BF Goodrich Rugged All Terrain TA P235/70R16 tires.

- 16 Inch American Racing slotted aluminium rims.

- All new custom upholstery (marine grey material with black marine material stripes). on original OEM front & rear seats so front passenger seat still flips forward for rear passengers to enter/exit the truck. Front and back seat frames were powder coated black while the upholstery was being done. Added feature of map pockets on the back of both front seats.

- Custom center console matches new seats. Original OEM console had 2 shallow cup holders in the front that allowed larger drink cups to just flip forward and spill at stop lights/signs. New custom console has deeper cup holders, hold all size drinks in place, and I had 2 more deep cup holders added to the back of the console for rear passengers.

- Badlands ZXR 9000 winch. Mounts to the truck via a receiver welded to the front truck frame facilitating a quick disconnect process (1 receiver pin/1 electrical coupling). The whole winch and platform pull right off the truck in 30 seconds.

- New larger battery in 2022 for winch use

- A/C, and Cruise Control: all the parts are there but I have not tried to make them operational because the truck has only been used for local area runs/cruising.
