The first things I did all took place in the first 2 hrs after agreeing to buy it. The worst visual issues:
dirt pounded into the rubber window seals and flares,
rubber trim was either hanging or missing
windows were literally frosted over w/ hard water stains
stock 225's
knicks and scratches in the paint and all the black trim (all black trim didn't really turn my crank either),
And the bee's, it had been sitting all summer and had 7 bee hives inside and out.
At this point, I had changed the tires and painted the grill.

After running those 31's to death, I ordered my new rims that wouldn't fit cuz of the backspacing, so I finally got the lift installed:
3.5" Rusty's-leaf packs, coils, shocks, upper & lower adj. CA's w/ flex joints.
JKS shackles
Rough Country adj. track bar.
RubiEx sway links

The box has some very special qualities:
You can't get it out
The seat is padlocked so there's no gettin' to the amps
The lid allows me a larger floor space
None of the equipment or sound is affected by a full load of cr@p
And yes, the lid dampens the volume levels, but the vibes are all there, you can feel it in your chest and still be able to carry on a conversation.
Since the ported chambers meet at the back, but the port tubes aren't at the end of the runway, I have multiple frequencies that it opens up to.

The weight of the box serves as my sand bags for the winter. Where I live, in the mountains, winter encompasses 9 months of the year.
3" lift in the front, full coils
3.5" lift rear, full leaf packs
1" JKS dogleg shackles, for the sag
