1999 Dodge Ram -- Work in Progress
we bought our 99 Ram brand new with the 5.2 V8 4x4, and have been using it to pull a horse trailer since. It now has 105,000 on it.
Within the last 4 months, we have replaced....
New cat
new plenum gasket
new air conditioner unit
rebuilt transmission
new tires
What should we do next. and now that we are repairing it, what can I get to enhance the performance. I was looking at this intake...is this worth it or should I just fork out the money for a K&N?

Any other ideas? Everything else on the truck is stock.
We also need a new dashboard, and I was looking at the dashboard cover in the LMC truck catalog. Is that soemthing thats worth the $130?
And finally, i have major rust under both driver and passenger doors, front and back, and above both rear wheelwells (has not broken through, just bubbling)
What should I do to combat that? Thanks!
