need advice
Hello 5.9L mag club. I have a 99 durango 4x4 and have installed a K and N filter, and A flow master 40 single with 3 in tubing into a 4 in outlet. I want to add alot more horspower and tourqe. I have already had the transmission rebuilt at 145K. I am the second owner and was lucky enough to buy the "D" from a Aviation Warrent officer who had EVERY reciept since its first oil change for anything done to her, and handed the file over to me when I bought it. I changed the oil over to Molble 1 full synth extended miliage. I keep her waxed and polised on a monthly basis. Besides a cold air intake, lower pully, Throtle body spacer and a "Jet" performance chip, what else can I do t soup her up? Any advice on good lift kits/ tire wheel combos would also be helpfull. Thank you in advance.

Awesome thanks Nim! I am pretty excited about this to see if there is a major difference in power after this is done.
I want to try the kegger mod, but Im not sure about cutting into a intake that I dont have two of lol. Plus I am pretty sure epoxy isnt to cheap for the amount you need to do the mod.

like $380 i think
the intake is around $600 and the t/b i dont remember
just tell your wife you need a new intake cause you messed up the old one trying to get better gas mileage! lol
check around on ebay or craigslist for a stock intake you can mod..i see them all the time for real cheap

i do not recommend big lift kits for durango!!!! i had one with a 5.5" t/s lift. nothing but problems. roasted 2 front axles and could not keep an alignment on it . i would recommend maybe a body lift.
take your throttle body spacer off and throw it in the trash, its worthless on a magnum engine with a kegger intake manifold.
there are tons of options to upgrade your motor , just depends on how much u wanna spend
