    Are there other mods I should consider?

    Thanks Guys.

    Agree with Cuppa, a bit more info would assist but anyway... What other mods?

    Scan Gauge (I am assuming because it is an 07 Dx it is a CRD) or equivalent should be the first thing on the list
    Chip or ECU remap
    EGR block if you are ambivalent about NOX emmissions
    Check Intercooler for leaks, tigged replacement if req'd
    Rear Spring Tower Supports (inspect the rails etc prior)
    Rear door extension bracket (for the small door) so it opens fully
    Roof rack with 4 supports not 3 (a 6x8 tarp, 2 poles, ropes and occy straps takes care of the awning
    Long range tank (expensive but HEAPS better than rrsing around with jerries and gets 50Kg off your roof)

    The above pretty much describes the '07 I had that toured all over WA... Had the drawers, fridge & drop slide and heavy gear in the back and I carried a bit of lighter gear and a tyre carcass on the roof.
    Only ever used the tyre carcass once, at Tom Price, after a stone cut.
    I did put an awning on but it wasn't any better or worse than the tarp

    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
