ill give you a hint on what I bought starts with a "super" and ends with a "charger". yep a nice kenne bell 2.1 kit just gonna have to wait till I return to install it
 






2" Skyjacker suspension
ProComp 3000 shocks
 






I donated my old E-350 so I get $500 extra on the tax return :)

I'm not sure that will go towards the Explorer though, I've been eyeing digital SLR cameras recently. It's been years since Ive had an SLR and $500 would be a good start torwads a decent one. Plus Section525 keeps text messeging me about the fact that he has one and I dont -- sad :(.

EDIT -- yep, another text msg informing me what I dont have :(
 












Wheels/Tires and RB lift!!!! :D:D:D:D, though i probably wont get it done till March or April. im aiming for late February/early March tho. i just cant make up my mind on the wheels man!!!
 






This year, the tax return to going to something extremely more important then modding my X. PAYING OFF OLD BILLS! as I am tired of them haunting me. I may take a few dollars and get a new muffler put on, but bills come first this year for several reasons.

But just to play the game, if I was spending my tax return on my X, here are a few things that I want to do with no particular order:

  1. Lift (RB or CS)
  2. Exhaust
  3. Screamin Demon Coil Pack
  4. Taylor 8.2 plug wires
  5. SCT Livewire
  6. Custom CAI to include 70 mm MAF housing and TB
  7. Detroit True-Trac
  8. Custom Fabbed Tubes Front, Side & Rear (Baja Bar, Steps/Sliders, and Bumper wrap to match Baja Bar in the rear)
 






wow that's a laundry list of stuff. anyway getting bills out of the way gives to the best thing clear mind and no stress. good choice
 












No mods for me this year, tax return is going to the bank, baby comes in june so I need to be prepared :)
 






I am going to use my tax refund towards closing costs on buying a house in springtime. So truck will have to wait.
 






im putting a little return money into the x.....12000lb winch and mount plate
