Sounds like a good list Aaron. But beware once you get started on it, it might end up being a full on build haha.

You've got a lot of SD parts you might as well throw on since you will have it all apart!

Looks like a good list of things to get done/upgraded Aaron! It can only turn into a full build if your money tree grew good this year. Mine didn't grow near as high as I needed/wanted!! Mines in the shop for winter work too, but it would get more done if that flippin' tree would have grown like it was supposed to!

Mine started sprouting real nice about mid summer. Then last month, the damn thing up and wilted on me! Lol.

Great looking list Aaron. However, I don't see more air on that list...
