I guess it depends on what your looking for, and how much you are planning to spend.

If your going for the solid axle that you were talking about. I would say look for a ford truck, they have the pumpkins on the front diff on the drivers side.

If your asking in general, I would say look for things that are wearing out. Like seat belts, they loose there springiness. To trim pieces that get broken. To things you want to upgrade like bigger brakes systems or a larger rear end 9.25 from gen 2 dakota and durango Or electric fans.

a V8 throttle body if you don't already have one, with linkage.

Extra lenses if they are cheap enough, I busted up a few of those.
