Well, looks like I'll be converting the rear drum brakes to disks along with upgrading to chromoly D44 axles in the back. Other than that--?

Me too, let me know what you find on heat exchangers. I don't want to spend $400 on a kit when all I need is the heat exchanger.

Man I take showers every year. I just toss that solar shower up on the roof basket all day.

Still a hot one would be a lot nicer.

My truck will be um, just a little bit different on the run.

Just a little.

The water temp there isn't 180 - 210 either.

Well, you know how it goes--you upgrade tires, then you regear, then come the lockers, then armor, then transfer case gears. Then you take the little bleater out and find out it just does amazing things! Then you tip it over or bash it so that fear of scratching it is gone. At the rate I'm going it'll be long-armed by next summer and have a V8 in 2007. lol
