My first mod would be a savings account with a $1000 initial deposit, depending on your age.

Get a new tranny...if you haven't already done it...you eventually will. May as well get it over with and move on to bigger and better mods in the future.

+1. Don't fix the tranny if it ain't broken.

There are several previous threads already on here that can describe some inexpensive mods. Use the search button on the top of the page.

Now, assuming your tranny has been rebuilt or has really low miles on mopar parts... then go a head and mod the motor. but if that tranny has about 80K or more... then you might want to think about saving $1000 like Bluebone suggested. you might need that for a tranny rebuild or parts for when she breaks.
these are big heavy older trucks. we ALL know the tranny is the weakest link, especially me, I am about to dump $2250 (now adding shift kit) so lets just call it $2400 to get it back to normal. once i get my tranny inline, I do have some mods in mind, but nothing near IndyRamMan's Blue Rocketship.
My goal is to get some more MPGs...
