Hey guys, I just bought an FE-140. What can be done to these to help these vehicles out without hurting the gas mileage? I'm looking to gain power and bullet-proof the vehicle (oh yeah!) on a limited budget.
Congrats on the purchase. You'll find it to be pretty bulletproof right out of the box.
Doug Hackneys list on what to do (and priority) is pretty good.

Ranked in order of priority:
One meter water crossing capability (raise vent lines for axle, transmission, transfer case, raise high amp fuse/relay block, etc.)
Air seats
Shocks for the three point pivot frame
Upgraded suspension (springs, shocks and rear sway bar)
DynaMat lining for the cab
